How many pullups can you do?

[xnotoriousx]

if I'm on diet i can do more.

wanna bot bot??

[jbm]

I was inspired to make this thread to compare it to the results of this other forum I post on which is a car forum but yet 30+ members can allegedly do 10+ REAL pullups from a deadhang LMAO

maybe those car forum members don't know how to do it in good form.

I do 20 x's 2 every single day except Saturday and Sunday. I can provide testament that pull ups are a great overall movement. On cardio days I even try to add in another 20 at the very end of my workout but usually only bang out 10-12. The more you do pull ups the more total you can knockout. I'm @ 6'1" at 214 lbs as of this past Sunday. If you can only do 5 though you need to start adding those in at some point...Just my opinion!

I do 4 sets every back day... 15, 14, 12 10.. I can normally do more but I am 270# right now..

I did 29 from dead hang when I was 205# and lived in Vegas..
My brother is 148# and 8%BF and he can do over 40

[Gaspari1255]

Zero. I am blessed with a genetically super wide back. Lat pull downs ftw



--never actually bothered with pull ups since HS

[jbm]

You must be getting old brother!! I've been lucky thus far, no shoulder issues to speak of. The only thing that will slow me down is if I start getting a cramp in my lats and those her like a biatch. My wife actually does them with me and she can bang out 8-10 dead hang pullups. It's funny to watch all of the guys in the gym watch her do them..They all stand there with a "wtf" look on their faces.

ive been slacking on training and diet since i moved to my new house, but when my back was a lil stronger a couple months ago i would hang 70lbs(a 45 and a 25) and do 8. without any weight it is so easy i could pump out 20-25 easily. (this of course is with straps) and i weight 170.

[BgMc31]

3 sets of 6-8 reps with 30-40lbs of chain. I'm at about 295lbs rt now. I've done 12 before at 305 but haven't tried a max out set. I only do them after I pull or clean.

I used to do 'em daily as well.

I think I agree with you... re: the more you do, the more you're able to do.

My former coach made me chin every time I stepped in the gym... both pull-ups to front and behind-the-neck.

Hm... maybe it's time I went back to that.

I could use another inch or two of width.

[PT]

I tried about a month ago and got 17 in and was depressed because when i was in the marines i was hitting around the 26 mark every pt

[bag up pr bagpipe]

I'm 250lbs and do 10 with a 44lb hanging off me

Thats sic !! My wife can pull down some nice numbers, but pull ups kick her ass. She has real long arms but that dont matter. Tell your wife good job !!!

Im still in my twenties so I aint that old yet...LOL

I think its spawns from the fact that I used to do weighted pull ups forever. Or that I have had multiple shoulder injuries from baseball and MMA practice, one or the other...

That is pretty kick ass about your wife she must be really fit. I dont know If I have seen too many women be able to do that many pull ups.

Could we all.......

[JDawg1536]

Could we all.......

Dude.... what the hell???


I did 13 last night at the end of my workout. I'll be up to 20 in a few months.

[*El Diablo*]

Before set, 3 sets of 12 reps
After set, 3 sets of 6-8 reps.

[lovbyts]

In school I did 30 100% legal from a dead hang. It was the school record for a few years. I never practiced them though and only did them for testing day.

Now I can only do about 15 but that still isnt bad considering I weigh 40+ more lbs.

[beatango2008]

i do them as a burnout on shoulders at the end of a workout, I get about 8-12

[BJJ]

Being natural still, I do 18 frontally, 13 in the back and 10 upside down.
Usually, I do them only when working-out my back.

[F4iGuy]

32 at the moment. I set a few records back in the day.

[Bojangles69]

I actually had a contest at work the other day with another friends whos into bb. We're both basically the same exact height, weight and size.

And its funny cause we both burned out at exactly 14.
Which pissed me off cause I use to do nothing but pull ups back in the day.

Anybody know where I can get me some illegal pull-ups?

So do you think that doing pull ups everyday could actually be beneficial for adding back-width?

This winter when I'm going to be on a lean-mass diet I'm going to try to bring my back and chest up to match the rest of my body.

So if pull ups everyday would benefit me, I'd definitely start doing them.

No source fishing

[Deltasaurus]

[Misery13]

Everyday, no do it as your regular back routine or you will be over doing it like with any exercise.

[Dude-Man]

I get bored after 30. A better question is "how many can you do with one arm, unassisted?" The answer to that is only one.

She's pretty damn fit! No exaggeration, she can bang out 8-10 legit pull-ups without cheating and even do 2-3 sets if she is feeling really good that day. Last set she usually will bang out 5 if I am there to badger her!!

[PC650]

[monkeyman33]
