Weighted pull-ups

[tbolfist]

I think not enough people do any sort of pull ups. Everyone goes right to the pull down.

I love this exercise...

Guys gotta try it out...I did them today 75lbs...Felt great..

Felt strong today...But pull ups in general are under rated it seems...I barely see people doin them, only screwd up pull downs...

love em but can't do em with a bad shoulder.

 

[AngryMuscles]

i admittedly can't do much of them. no excuse, i'm weak

 

[tbolfist]

Honest...Just do regular pull ups, and throw 5lbs on at a time...I haven't done them in a while, than today I started my routine with them and felt great...The reason I decided to post...

the thing is..i can't even manage to pull 5 reps. what makes a strong pull ups?? arms???

 

[tbolfist]

Just like anything else...Keep doin them...Do em with no weight, try for one more each time...

Arms are pullin...Id think that a good back routine will make the arms stronger for that type of exercise...Pull downs, machine pull downs...Your arms are used in all back, id say just consistency will make you stronger...

Also, if your grip slips before you max out get a pair of wraps...
