20 chins at 60

[chaos]

managed 9 good reps today followed by a set of 6


Did my upper body workout first but saved arms until after the pull-ups

The 9 felt pretty good , I may have got a 3/4 rep if I had gone for another but Im happy with 9

Slow and steady improvements!

[joswift]

trained yesterday , didnt do any full pull ups, felt sore, arms especially

Ease off a bit with the max efforts and give my body time to adjust to the load

Still, up to 9 in around 4 weeks is on target as long as Im careful

[joswift]

did a set of 10 and a set of 7

Struggling with chins at the moment, feel like Im going to rip my biceps and shoulders.
Havent done them for a while

Settting myself a goal of 20 chins by the time I turn 60 next July

How many consecutive chins can you guys do and how old?

First thing is lose some fucking weight   

Brian, fuck off its not for you...

Back in August I was able to do 4 sets of 10 but I haven't tried lately.

That great bud,before I got sidelined I was doing Negative only chins which were working very well for me as I tried to build up in reps...............chinn ing had become a bitch for me, especially since years ago I could do at least 20 anytime on a whim,of course I wasn`t a big heavy dude but they were very humbling recently.

I`m like Jeff and Illumunati....palms facing away with a wide grip were always called chins in all the old magazines so that`s what I still call them today and I FUCKING always will....Iron Nat and Grape Ape be damned!  LOL

Agreed. Chins used to be palms away and pullups were palms in. I don't know when they switched.

I never switched bro........it`s just ingrained in me after all the these years to still call them Chins.

I just call them pullups whichever way your hands are facing
I can do more with hands facing me.
