IDK lol. Just do moar sets
I've been doing 4 sets of 12 every two days for the last 3 months
High reps slowly until failure
Don't forget to breath, b***h
Do interrupted sets if it gets easy
wtf this is like the easiest exercise ever. What's your pullups max?
Don't know, i blew up my shoulders 6 months ago and replaced pullups with this. Back then I could do maybe 7 clean pullups
Ya weak bro
i know, that's why i want to change
>bodyweight rows
those are inverted rows
aka bodyweight rows u dum c**t
Do them with rings
start lifting
yeah these are easy and it must be only a fraction of bodyweight, I"m 170 and and still have to low rep barbell row 175
Are you pausing at the top of the rep and fighting gravity on the way down (negative)?
If you're just yeeting your torso into the bar as many times as you can you won't get stronger.
For me it feels like bodyweight exercises always have a hard cap for the average man (unless you're some Chris heria or magnus midtbo who specifically train for thit shit)
For example for a trained adult, the pull-up hard cap seems to be 19-21 reps. Like the difference between someone who seriously trained and took care of their diet, and someone who just trains for time to time is negligible.
Also bodyweight exercises can't be ground. You can't really grind reps, you go from clean reps to failure almost instantly. When it comes to bodyweight rows, you can do like 10 reps clean and easy, then struggle the 11th reps and outright fail the 12th or maybe do a half rep.
Keep more reps in the tank and add sets. Keep 2 reps in the tank, do 10 reps for 4 sets, then try increasing with 1 rep while keeping 2RIR

next week 10,10,10,10
next week 11,11,10,9

>Also bodyweight exercises can't be ground.
Yeah they can. Especially chin ups/pull ups. Push ups too to some degree. That changes when you start doing them weighted though.
not him, but I have the exact same issue.
with pullups, my goal is 10x4. I've been trying the method you described for probably 1 year and I can't complete 10x4...Only manage to get 10x2 an then 8x2(at best).
I'm back to bulking and obviously I can only do like 8x4 now
big sad.
Take a break for a week or so, do fewer but with weights, get psyched and try to do 1-2 more reps AT ANY COST
How many can you guys do? I just want to be sure I can physically do more reps.
