My chin ups are bottlenecked by my cardio.
My muscles are probably capable of doing 15 chin ups at 85kg bw, but I get gassed after 8 reps.

I don't want to train gay ass cardio /fit/...

>>
>>76777927
for me its grip. always get huge forearm pump and last few reps feel like i have to put all focus in gripping the bar
>>

The exercise can vary greatly with form. If you do all reps from a full hang it's easier to do more reps as there seems to be an initial thrust from the "back" muscles. Another big factor is proportion / leverage.

In your case it might also be a breathing issue - maybe you're too tense all the time which is gassing you.

I do it from full deadhang up to chest to bar. I also have disproportionately long arms, so everything seems to be going against me.

I don't know why but if I actually take deep breaths between reps I seem to get dizzy/gassed much faster.

catch up on heavy squats and deadlifts

>>76777927
you're not gassed after 8 reps, retard
your grip is slipping, either start training grip or get some straps
>>
>>76778311
straps are gay, for faggots
>>
>>76778620
yea, but that retard things spamming chinups is the best way to train back so either way he is a huge homo
>>
>>76777927
Bro how the fuck do you get gassed doing chin ups. With cardio like that, you should get off the internet and go see a doctor lol. You're probably dying because of a heart defect or some shit like that.
>>
>>76777927
Its true, you probably are. You need sprints/intervals. Assault bike and jump rope is good for it outside of regular sprinting. The same thing happened to me and I am 7kg heavier. Going from 8 to 20 chin-ups and pull-ups was mostly my cardio getting better. Calisthenics have a large cardio component but most people doing them are really skinny so it does not come up much.

>between reps
thats ur problem
>>
>>76777927
lol what kind of retarded shit is this?
Your cardio is fine, if want to do more chin ups you to grow bigger muscles
