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!

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

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   ;D

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  ;D

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