Weighted chin up progression
-
<p>cool, I get confused with all these bloody chin/pull up variations. We did 5*5 the other night of wide grip chins - but I used a band to help out. I reckon I'd get 3, maybe 4 clean reps with full extension before I'd tap out. From there I'd probably manage sets of 2. Expect that to improve with all the overhead stuff I'm doing. That shit is mean as for upper back strength.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I can imagine you purposely feeding your lads to get their combined weight to X, so they can hang off your legs when you are training - gotta get some mileage outta the sprogs aye!! :whistle: Hmm didn't JK piggyback his young'un over a run or trek recently!!? </p> -
<p>Both of them are starting to fill out heaps so like the legend of that Roman soldier who did squats with a calf that turned into a cow I need to keep up haha. I can sometimes manage one fucken awful rep with both of them ( combined about 55 or so kg ) but no more than that.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Give close grips a go brudda. You'll get decent rep numbers like that I reckon.</p> -
<p>I did 125 strict palm away pull ups, do I win?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>My kids were also hanging onto my legs, so I think that makes me even tougher?</p> -
<p>Is that you Richie... I didn't know you were hiding up north these days!!</p>
