You trying to imply a Hebrew poster is incriminating himself, using chins as a means of evading capture?

Ha ha funny
1 I'm not a Hebrew 2
2. If run from no man if your lost was inferring police never been arrested never seen the inside of a cell

How about actually addressing the issue of pull-ups

getting 'good' at pullups is about learning how to maximize leverage and momentum. Or losing weight.

unless you've never trained your lats then its not about getting stronger, its about learning the groove of the lift by doing the lift.

I can currently do 8 slow, controlled pullups. I could 'improve' my numbers by cheating or maybe becoming more neurologically efficient at the movement but I'm not going to dramatically increase my lat strength unless I up the dose


Read reply #38.

Do another 8 reps at end of the session. Now you have done 16.

Was this debate settled?

Pullups are mostly an exercise for the smaller guys in the Hulkotron's experience.
