jump up carefully, lower yourself a bit at a time.

i just did my first one a few weeks ago. repping 3 at bodyweight (108kg) right now.
its not much, but im getting there.

but really you should use a stepstool to get up.

jump pullups are dangerous in that you can injure your shoulder unless you've got decent shoulder stability.

Mfw i can do my age in pullup reps
>>
>>41826865
you can start with the lat pulldown machine, or some gyms have an assisted pullup machine which is probably the best option.

35kg added for 5 chins at 93 kg body weight at 6'0 AMA
>>
>>41827115
This. For years when I was a fatty I did the lat pullfown machine like crazy. When I finally got my shit together and lost all excess weight I could do lots of pullups.
>>
>>41827288
>5
you're doing it right
>>
>>41827272
Building up to a 1 arm pull up, 60kg is my working max, think I could do more but as you say, not pushing it too hard. Besides, I've built up to this over years, warm up properly, back off if tendons hurting etc.
>>
>>41827297
it's a common injury when faggots go too hard and your massive lats give out suddenly
your triceps tears like a motherfucker
>>
>>41827318
yee but don't think I'm going hard enough to cause my lats to give out srs, I'll only do 2 rep max attempts in future though
>>
>>41827351
you can just get distracted and stop pulling with your lats, you know how newfags try to pull only with their arms?
stretching your triceps is also very important

also, when you are becoming advanced in some lift do some research what the common injuries are and how to prevent them because you have to fuck up only once and then it's a lifetime of regret

there are some good books out there
>>
I recently did 6 chinups with 40kg added. My personal best senpai
>>
>>41827428
yeah I'll look into it, thanks a lot bbz, I know exactly what you mean apropos the newfags

Feels good becoming advanced but definitely more terrifying..
>>
>>41827263
not too fussed about my height, i'm only 17. My older bro is 6'2, so who knows.
>>
>>41827272
just make sure to work up slowly to your 1rm, then perform back off sets. 1rm's are boss as fuck.
>>
3 reps of Body weight of 170lbs + 66lbs.

Don't listen to literally anyone on this board.

Just check for yourself on symmetricstrength for actual data-backed metrics of strength.

http://www.50pullups.com/50-pullups-programme/less-4-pullups
Start there. Do pullups (or chinups, doesn't matter) 3 times a week in this format. Since you can't do a pull up you should start with negatives. I started like this and now I do 5x5 with 45lbs after only 4 months. I also happen to be a 5'7 160lb turbo manlet but I have my taller skinnyfat friend doing this routine and he's progressing really well. I say once you can do 10-12 pullups you should switch to 3-5x5 sets of weighted and progress by 2.5lb each time.

Also my own opinion but I really dislike using the lat pd or assisted pull up machine because they don't let you practice how tight you should be keeping your core as well as your grip on actual pullups. I have one dumbass friend who can do lat pd with almost the entire stack but he can't do a single pull up without swinging(not kipping but literally swaying back and forth) like a retard

What do i do to increase the reps? i am only doing 6-7 pull ups for a year already. My max was 10 but i can't do it anymore. Just to let you know i started doing 20 push ups and 6 pull ups and now, a year later, i can do 60 push ups ( 70+ on a good day) and STILL 6-7 pull ups. PLEASE HELP
>>
>>41829593
Wait a few days. I was stuck on 4 or 5, then I went on holiday for a week with no working out and when I came back I could do ten. You just need to give your arms time to recover.
>>
>>41827942
you are weak
>>
>>41829593
Work with strength progression. do them weighted for 5s, 3 set then do a fourth set with bodyweight.
Try to mix between pull-ups and chin-ups. And do that exercise first when you get to the gym.
>>
>>41826701
1 rep max was 58kg.
3 reps with 40kg.
rep max was 21.
@ 92kg bw.
>>
>>41827942
but you are weak...? I don't know if you were trying to make him feel bad but you genuinely are weak. Come back here when you're 250 lbs and can 10 rep at LEAST 2 pl8 (yes - 225 lbs, not 90 lbs)
>>
What set and rep ranges should I be doing when doing weighted pull ups?
>>
What is your opinion on actively rotating your elbows to point inwards during a pull up to really hit those lats?
>>
>>41827158
i'd be impressed as fuck if I saw a 2 year olds do 2 pull ups pham. Your joke was retarded as fuck.
