10 sets of pull ups a day and basically fuck all else that day. Why should or shouldn't I do this?
should do pull ups because they're based
shouldn't do just that because that's frick all and moronic
why do people always want to do stupid meme shit instead of just the shit everyone knows works
all I'm hearing is do 11 sets
11 sets of 1??
should:
I mean its something
shouldnt:
youre gonna look like shit. relatively wide dyel shit. like pic rel but I mean look how happy the lil homie is so who am I to say anything. if you want to do an absolute minimum more, do some pushups. Medium sized Shirts will still be your biggest enemy but you will impress 15 year old girls at the beach maybe
Also fpbp. what is it with you fricks and your mnmnlst wrkout routines
you should because it's a good all round upper body exercise that hits a lot of muscle groups and some exercise is better than no exercise.
you shouldn't because you're creating muscle imbalances by neglecting pushing exercises and lower body muscle groups, and because 10 sets every day is over training, not giving enough time for muscles to recover and grow, and risking repetitive stress injuries like tendonitis.
So if I did 10 sets of pull ups every other day or twice/thrice a week whatever, would that be an okay idea for hypertrophy?
Literally can't do much better than that for back hypertrophy. Mix up your grip types/widths and you're golden
what is a good push exercise for the back?
Weigted incline calf rows
Wear a backpack and do them weighted and also do chin ups and that's basically all you need for back
>all you need for back
t. dyel
Do you need anything for the back besides pull ups and rows?
No. You'll always see twinks deadlift 5+ plates, but you'll never ever see a twink chinup +100 lbs his bodyweight. Chinups are king for size
sth for rear delts and sth for traps - no, twisting and turning under rows to get proper rear delt exhaustion will only lead to bicep tendonitis
and why did u uppend pullups with rows? 😀
because there is no all encompasing answer, there are only general principles
>Wear a backpack and do them weighted
This isnt a horrible idea, I did this for a bit and saw gains, but you will see better results by purchasing a dip belt (good ones are like 40$) and just filling a bucket with stuff, since a backpack puts strain on shoulders.
>all you need for back
except, it doesn't train that gigantic muscle that runs over your whole back supporting your spine
it literally does
Please explain how pull ups work your spinal erectors
Don't listen to that moron, he doesn't even lift
Idk, they just do.

Essentially impossible to get gains if you are only doing 10 sets a day. You really only get pullup gains if you do like 4x10 or 3-12 and add weight every month or so. Even then it is really hard.
>taking a muscle to failure 10 times in one day will not result in gains
how?
Confusing is that he says 10 sets are not enough and then recommends 4x10
Wut?
You're an idiot
>10 sets of pull ups a day
Based
>and basically frick all else
Cringe
there isnt any reason you shouldnt. pull ups/chin ups are probably the best singular exercise you can do for strength that doesnt require much equipment, dips are probably a close second.
I prefer chin ups. But they are a great exercise either way.
What should I do if I can barely do 2 pullups? I can do one but the second one.. Just fricking impossible. I'm 6'3 230lbs.
just keeo doing them until you can do more, i started at 290lbs hanging from the bar, eventually i could do 1, then i could do 2, at 268 my record was 11 and my best with added weight to match my old weight is 4.
try to do 2 til you dam do 2. or do 1 and rest then do 1 the rest and a final one
thats what i did
Do you have somewhere to pull-up at home? Easy way to see gains is to just do 1 pull up like every 30 mins throughout the whole day in addition to the rest of your work out
1. Get an exercise band and use it to help you squeeze out a few more pull ups until failure after your 2 pull ups without the band.
2. If you don't have a band and don't want to get one then hop up to the bar, hold yourself for a split second in the position that would be the top of your range of motion when doing a pull up and slowly lower yourself to the bottom over the course of 5 seconds and repeat until failure.
3.Another method is greasing the groove where you do the exercise many times through out the day but don't go to failure.
You will need some other exercised like dips and squats to see quicker gains (if you're more of a calisthenics guy). However, pullups are unironically physique builders, its probably the only exercise which can build a decent physique alone.

Ya, it’s certainly nothing special, and can be achieved in a much shorter timeframe if you do other things than just chin-ups. But I was just trying to give op a reasonable outcome to expect from doing just chin-ups.
He'd look a lot better if he wasn't eating a shitty vegetarian diet.
You'll have big giant wings unproportional to anything else
this is concerning for sure
An anon did this and posted his body some weeks ago, he looked stupid AF. Imagine like the lats of an average lifter and pecs, shoulders triceps etc. of a literal skeleton.
I'm struggling to do even 1 pull up but I'm trying since May. I do the progressions, I bought resistance bands to get prepared for the real thing, but it feels fricking impossible. At best I can do 2. And I feel it more in my forearms and biceps and never in my back. I'm only 77kg and 189cm, so I guess it's not about my weight.
Arch your back, do negative pull ups
Get good at chin ups first, you might just be an internal puller rather than external puller
Do with dips, pistol squats, and Norwegian ham curls.
Ultimate calisthenic routine. Prove me wrong.
How many reps would you be doing per set? If you can do like 10 reps you should begin to do weighted, then you'll actually be able to progress. Having 10 fricking sets of pullups isn't exactly optimal to make progress.
I can do weighted pull ups so I'd be dropping weight through out the sets to stay in the 9-12 rep range.
I see. Well why shouldn't you just keep increasing the weight? Trying to grease the groove or w/e?
I would be increasing the weight as I get stronger by doing a shitload of pull ups. I'm just trying to see from this thread if there's any advantage to doing an ass ton of sets of a certain exercise over just doing your typical three sets.
I think 3 sets is not enough for a back day. I would say 10 is a good number if all you're doing is just pullups as long as they're easy for you which apparently you're beyond intermediate level so they are.
Thanks dude
Do 10 sets of pull ups 10 sets of push ups the the next day for awesome growth, also add in dips on that day for maximum upper body gains.
Day 1: 10 Sets of Pull Ups. (You could do squats on this day as well with as many sets.)
Day 2: 10 Sets of Push Ups and Dips.
Always remember the 5 count hold at toughest spot to increase strength and gains.
The notorious reddit boomer. When did you first hear about this place?
You are the reddit boomer for even mentioning reddit when nobody ever mentioned it. 🙂
Keep shit on topic DYEL. I was here in 2012 and prior.
>I was here in 2012 and prior
I was here in 2006 but honestly I think that makes me even more of a loser. Not much of a brag. lol
there is a 0% chance you have been lifting for 10 years and would type the shit you posted previously.
Mersey bow coop sir
Do whatever this dude is doing x3 per week or split it up and you will be ok
In the video he hits all muscle groups with the most basic exercises, 5 in total
