Can barely do a single pull up
static holds with chin above the bar, negatives, lose fat.then again 1 pull up is like below novice and shouldnt require any of that
Thanks, I'll try that
I don't think the weight is the problem since I'm about 159 lbs, it's more about me being weak in pulling up
If it's not weight, you could try doing some bent over lateral raises to build up a bit of shoulder strength if you have a set of dumbbells
If you have a bench or something to lean on, dumbbell rows also work pretty well and are easy to do
Do inverse rows in different angles until failure, start building from there. Use an assisted pull up machine. Do negatives + pull ups + lose weight. Many options ahead of you.
Single arm lat pulldowns. Weight as high as you can handle. 15 sets per week, 6 to 12 reps, to failure.
Also lose weight fatass.
Lat pulldown machines are all designed to be used with both arms at the same time. Use the machine properly.
Then use a cable stack. Doing one arm at a time helps with focus.
Try keeping your scapula retracted.
Everyone is able to do a_single_ pull-up OP
well not me
Si se puede cabron.
I went from assited pull ups to adding 40lbs on my daily pull ups. Estamos al puro vergazo.
Fellow brown skin
Lose weight. The guy who are good at them are mostly under 200 lbs
1. do negatives
2. lose weight
3. dont cross your legs like most people and your pic show
do half reps at the top when you fail
when I was 5'10 180 lbs. in middle school I was able to do 5 of these easily without any lifting experience.
get a set of thick resistance bands(I got gymreapers like $60 on Amazon) and use those for assistance until you can ween off of them. that's what I've been doing and I'm getting better.
Take your current bodyweight and divide it by 3, aim to lift that amount on the following exercises, reverse curls, curls and cable pull overs.
For grip do single arm rack pulls and aim to lift half your bodyweight on each arm and do planks aiming to do 1pl8 weighted planks for 30-40 seconds.
After a while you can add single arm cable lat pulldowns and aim to lift 60% of your bodyweight.
If you are severely overweight you can also do cardio, start with walking at a high pace and increase distance, after a while add jogging, then add jogging with interval sprints and finally add sprints, walking, jogging with interval sprints and sprints are god tier for burning fat but if you are skinnyfat you can just work up to interval sprints for health and tonning but it isn't going to particularly help you to get pull ups since your problem isn't being overweight, is that your muscles aren't strong enough to pull yourself up.
Op here
Are people joking when they say they can't do a pullup? It was the first thing I learned. I tried it, could barely do it, tried again the next day, got higher, after about a week or 2 I could do a full one.

>I tried it, could barely do it
