i did 3 sets today
Pretty sure this is a kekke spam.
>>76573346Bodyweight exercises are manlet cope. You just want something you're good at because you get mogged by the brute strength of lanklets on the real lifts
What's the easiest grip?
>>76573346>no strain on joints/tendonsAll exercises do, if you train hard enough
>>76573346>>no strain on joints/tendons????
>>76573372You can't lift your own body even if your life depended on it
>>76573377neutral/hammer
>>76573372fat retard cope
>>76573346How does it filter lanklets? I can do it weighted with 40kg for 4-5reps.I’ m 6’ 1
>>76573412Short people are mind broken by the existence of tall people. Meanwhile tall people don't give a shit about short people's height
I fucking hate pullups so much, they always feel awful no matter what grip I pick. Feels like its 90% arm and 10 lat/teres. I fucking love rows too, how do I make pullups not suck? I have monke arms though.
>>76573372This desuWhen I went to the gym my first time I could do 21 strict form controlled tempo pullups but my lat pull down was only 130 for 6. Even though I weighed 150. It didn't make any sense then I had lat doms the next day and knew.
>>76573346Pull ups are the core of my pull day. I start the workout with it and every few weeks I change the variation from neutral grip, wide overhand grip or the classic supinated chin up>>76573377I find neutral grip to be the least taxing, but honestly it depends on the state of your shoulder health. My rotator cuffs and my left deltoids have been fucked up since high school football so thats why neutral feels the easiest
>>76573472How wide are you gripping? I grip a little wider than shoulder width, like I would do with ohp
>>76573496I try to go pretty narrow on it like you say, its just ass. I've tried going straight up, arching my back a bit to get my chest to the bar like a lat pulldown etc. I just hate it. I think I may just be too heavy at 190lbs to do it consistently since I can only get 140lbs on seated lat pulldowns with an overhand grip. Any other grip makes my bicep feel weird and like I'm going to hurt it.
>>76573472If you have problems with bench hitting chest too it's probably just arm length vs torso width being unfavorable.
>>76573377the one in op
>>76573526Yep, bench is also terrible for me with my arms. My OHP and push press compared to my bench are way easier lifts and quickly hitting the point with push press where I'm just going to leap frog my bench. 165lbs bench for 6 is my best along with 115lb OHP for 6. I also do OHP after I bench so realistically I can probably hit 125lbs for reps. Push press is 155lbs.
>>76573525If overhand pull-ups "feel wrong," it's possible your shoulders arent naturally resting in the proper position. You could try some straight arm strengthening exercises to hit the rhomboids/lower traps some. Scapular pull-ups and tucked front lever may help
>>76573549May try that. My shoulders are fucky in general from a lot of injuries but they seem to do fine with pressing overhead.
>>76573377neutral grip's the easiest but also least usefuloverhand/regular pullups are most awkward but the most practical for actually pulling yourself up and become muscle ups later on
>>76573555Pull-ups definitely have a shoulder aspect at play, compared to chinups where the supinated position basically locks everything into place mechanically
>>76573548Yeah it's why manlets love pullups in addition to being light they also have the most skewed width to arm length ratio. Meaning less distance their chest has to travel to the bar and the more they can use their lats without it failing on the arms. The irony is they tend to be poor climbers because no reach.
>>76573564Chin ups do something funky with my biceps and forearms that makes me feel like its all on my biceps. If I could fix that I would do underhand instead. Shame my gym only has straight bars instead of ones with a bit of twist like an ez curl bar. Same situation there, ez curls feel great but straight bars just hurt.
>>76573567Yeah past a certain point in the ROM I'm hitting all arms to get myself over the bar. Fucking sucks because weighted pullups are such a cool exercise.
>>76573346 I don’t do that grip but yes pure overhand pull-ups are a great upper body exercise. Like butter for me, I can do 3 sets of 8 no problem. Fatsos will shit on them but you can’t beat it for back.
>>76573390What does my bodyweight matter when I'm picking your girlfriend and throwing her around, dumb manlet
>>76573372>can't even pull up your fat ass when there's niggas that can do it with 60lbs attachedYou're fat. Case closed.
>>76573564neutral grip like OP is the way
>>76573372you know you can add weight if its too easy?
>>7657337284kg can do over 15 right now full range of motion nice cope
>>76573472If possible, you should try ring pullups - you can adjust the width between the straps and the rings allow your grip to rotate to your prefered/optimal grip
>>76573372Hello Ronald McDonald!
>>76573525I’m 6’2 180 and can do them just fine. It took many months before my body was able to adapt though, I was seriously struggling for a long time
>no strain on joints or tendonsYeah okay buckaroo. These were the main cause of my elbow tendonitis. If you have weak biceps your arms get decimated close to failure
>>76573525>I think I may just be too heavy at 190lbs to do it consistentlyThat's probably it, you're doing too much work and it's a heavy exercise you can't deload, unless you have those pull up machines.
>>76574914Temporary. You heal with elbows twice as strong after some rest time
>>76573346I'm 225lbs and almost able to get 2 in a row of these. Feels amazing. As the opener of my back day I do that first set of almost 2 and then beat out singles while I set up for other lifts. Neutral grip seems best for me for now.
>>76573377>>76573398feel like neutral makes my biceps take over. am i just doing it wrong?
>>76573472This happens because you use your arms and teres to pull, you have to learn to pull with your elbows/lats.On the pulldown machine aim your elbows towards your waist/away from your body, this forces you to layback a little, moreso if you use close grip-.
>>76573346>knee on bench between the leg rowsIt makes my pullups go up faster, pullups are like pushups.
>>76575455If you feel it too much in your biceps doing neutral, just grip the bar really tight and arch your back a bit more.One day I did neutral grip pull ups in a super tired state where I wasn't thinking and just going through the motions, didn't arch my back enough and lifted myself completely with my arms instead of using my back
>>76573346I'm 6'2" and can do sets of 5-7 with 30kg added (I'm 98kg), seeth shorty
>>76573472I've gone a whole year of pull ups. The only things I feel help are lengthened partials and gripping with your fingers (havent built up to this one yet).Otherwise, rows are the only thing that makes my back grow
>>76573377neutral is the only one not hurting my elbow
>>76573525>190 lbs>Heavy
>>76573548>My OHP and push press compared to my bench are way easier lifts and quickly hitting the point with push press where I'm just going to leap frog my bench. 165lbs bench for 6 is my best along with 115lb OHP for 6.Your OHP is comically low. If this is "leap frogging your bench" I'm scared to ask what your bench is.Wtf are you even doing push press while being this weak? Forget about explosive bs, just focus on basic strength
>>76573526Interesting. For me it's definitely the case with bench and pullups but chest seems to be particularly weak at growing (though it is hard to even see your back so IDK)
>>76573377neutral for volumenormal for weighted stuffchinups if you like ballz
>>76573346Can bench 150kgCan ohp 95kgCan do 10-12 neutral grip pulls for 3 sets. Wan to get to 15x15x15 before I start adding weight.6ft1 210lbs starting a cut to ~187lbs. I expect this will make any for of pullup way easier, losing like 10kilo.
