omg life has so many funny coicidences, i never see anyone do neutral grip pullups,and i was trying to see if there effective and the second i thought that i clicked this video, and heres this guy doing exacly what i do with the exact same machine lmao...good on ya! ;)
@DefyingGravity1893 You're so right about tose coincidnces or synchroncities. Anyway, he did a tremendous job, but I think he could've gotten even more reps; he seemed to be adjustin his grip durng some of his reps.
gotta ask does ur build make it easier cause i'm built like you n am making huge progress in comparison to a dude whos the same weight as me but much shorter any idea at all man?
Very nice! That is just over what I did as a max last year (I did a max of 92.5 lbs but not 5 reps).
85 I could do 5 reps. My grip is the same too, at that diagonal angle. This is by far the most natural and comfortable grip for pullups/chinups. My second favorite is commando grip now, but I cannot handle nearly as much weight that way (and risk injury if I try).
@sandeep1990 Its cause he explodes with the lats and catches himself on his biceps and pulls himself up from there. I'm not saying this is a good thing just breaking it down.
Nice job man. I just upped my pull up weight and i'm doing 5x5 with 90 pounds and I feel like i'm about to get a hernia i'm pushin so hard haha. I give you extra props while listening to John Mayer under strenuous conditions :p
Thanks, I just got to workout my back for the first time in a month due to football which gave me tendonitis in the wrist and a pulled shoulder. Luckily I still got three sets of 4 with 90. I will begin posting hopefully some more videos soon. Before I had gotten 6x100 for one set but my pr is still around 135-145lb. Nov. 22nd I am going to be competing in a push-pull meet and am hoping to raise my DL pr by 35lb to hit 500+ raw.
hey, have u ever got a one arm pullup, because if uve maxed at 135, 145, at ur bodyweight u sohuld be able to do a one arm chin. also, is it ok to do deadlifts before weighted chins, will deadlifting make you worse off for your weighted pulls, ie is it like oding bench press then sohulder press, what i mean is will the DL's weaken oyu at all, im not sure they would as deadlift uses low back, glutes etc, and not really much biceps, or upper back, or lats which is what u use for weighted pulls.
Yes, I was able to do a one arm pull/chin up with both my right and left hand, but not currently, I am working back up to that level of pulling/arm power. Deadlifts do not necessarily affect your pullup but they can take a lot out of you in energy. I found that my pullups were better if I did not do deads first, but it is best to do compress exercises first such as deads and not after weighted pulls because it can weaken the tension in your back and its best to not play around with deads.
ok, so in terms of muscular fatigue, deads wont do much to affect your weighted pulls, so its more of an energy factor, right? so for what were you repping 135 for back in the days, i used to think oyu need 1 rep with your bodyweight added on, but it seems peoplee have tamed the one arm chinup, even with 1RM of just 60-70 percento f their bodyweight....
Yes but it is a matter of technique and extreme arm strength, because I was arnold concentration curling 70lb for 3 reps at a weight of 175-185lb. Absolutely if you can do 100% bodyweight pull up you should be able to do 2-3 OAC/OAP, check out { rogeair } for good form. Watch his opposite shoulder pull into the bar.
Is this good for my weight or should I shut up? and by the way, I cant bench shit. My max is like 205. does that make any sense with regard to my pull ups?
Post a video of it and then I can tell you. But it all depends on what your goals are for your pullups. and considering your weight that is about normal but if you are only 5'6" or less then you should be a lot stronger due to leverage. How many OAC (one arm chins) are you up to? being light weight it should be easy for you to get to at least a couple.
same here but I find that I can lift more weight in this grip with aprx shoulder width spacing than in a traditional pull up. I finished this work out with 3 sets of 3-4 reps of 70lb pull-ups traditional grip.
Have you heard of Marvin Eder of the 50-60's he performed 7-8 reps wide grip with 200lb at body weight of 198lb and a dip with two guys hanging from his legs totaling 434lb total weight 632lb he was also the third person in the US to bench 500+. my goal is to get 180lb for 1 rep and 100lb for 3 sets of 6. last tuesday I got 6,5,5,with 90lb for three sets.
It was only mentioned once so kind of questionable but keeps me reminded of what the human body is capable of, he was also only around 5'8" with 19in. arms.
the muscle transfer looks so bad, theres no way that is good for you
