Feb/19/2007 Weighted pull-ups first set after deads. notice that my shoulders touch the bar on these. Body weight at the gym 187.5lb I know that this is technically a semi-supinated (palms facing) chin but it is the safest and most natural grip for doing heavy pulls seeing as there is less stress on the shoulders than in a traditional pull-up. 1 rep out from my previous record of 6 reps.

  • Its a cross between the two. Technically it is a neutral grip.

  • Nice work mate!

    I really hate those dangling weights though - especially as you waddle up to the bar hehe.

    Keep it up!

  • Thanks,

    I will try to get some more videos posted on my lifting progress which is going well.

    I am back up to 6x100lb. and on dips just had a pr of 160lb.

  • the muscle transfer looks so bad, theres no way that is good for you

  • @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.

  • 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! ;)

  • can someone please tell me what band sing that song and inbox me it

  • Say whatcha need to say, say whatcha need to say...I'm not a perfect person...lol

  • Just curious. Whats your max reps at just bodyweight?

  • 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?

  • i saw sum guy at my gym do 30 like this

  • alot of people have no idea what kind of strength this takes,,my hat goes off to you!!

  • 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).
