I used to add 35 KGs and do 6 of them, now I can't even do 5 of them unassisted. I HATE the wagie life
I would say adding 20 and doing 8 of them would be a respectable deed
2pl8 (90 lbs) for 5 reps with good form and over the bar.
Bodyweight is respectable. BTW if your chest isn't touching the bar, you haven't done a complete rep.
Bar to chest not required, just needs head above bar
No. Bar to chest is required otherwise you're not getting maximal muscle contraction for your lats or any other muscle in the back. Given that it is impossible for certain grips like narrow grip pull ups for you to touch the bar, getting your chest as close as anatomically possible to the bar is allowed. This is also when the forearms have gone through their complete range of motion given the dip. Your clavicles should be about bar level with a pronated grip. It's also when your hands are about the same height as your shoulders. The supinated grip chinup can go a little higher with the full range of motion and the netural grip pull up is fairly simple to get your chest to touch the bar.
This is why some people may complain that they're not getting the lat development they expect BW pullups. They're all doing 0 reps by stopping when your chin is near the bar. Take off the weight and do the exercise correctly and only use weights you can do the exercise correctly with or switch to the pull down machine.

What the frick are you saying? This is some incoherent ChatGPT babble.
Learn how to read the English language. Then you'll understand the post IESLB Black person.
Read the entire post thoroughly and every statement in context before making yourself look like an even bigger moron.
>For basic chinup/pullup
For a basic chinup and pullup, chin above the bar is not fine. Chin "above" the bar is an incomplete pullup. You can pull your body up further than that or you shouldn't be adding weight.
people with big biceps can't go much higher than chin above bar, unless they're starting a muscle-up movement which involves other muscles. you probably just have small arms.
You sounds weak and insecure.
>heh that guy might be pulling +40kg but he is going half an inch lower than I think he should. therefore my 8 bodyweight pullups are superior.
Post body.
Her chest isn't touching the bar though. Kinda weird how you named the file complete pullup lol.
>Your clavicles should be about bar level
That's not touching the bar either.
Depends what exercise you're doing. For basic chinup/pullup, chin above bar is fine. But you can also do chest-to-bars
>Inb4 crosshitter
Your total pull-up 1RM should at the very least be the same as your bench 1RM.
Assuming you're including bw it should be way higher than that
yes it should be, but due to the sorry state of pulluplets we need to set a low barrier to entry
most people on this board cant even do bw pull ups
at 70-80 kg you should be able to do 10-12 reps
Bench 5rm: 60kg
Pull up 5rm: 20kg@72kg
>What is a respectable weight+reps for weighted pull ups?
you understand the average man can not do a single pullup.
>What about my gym bros! i need to post stats on IST otherwise im mogged and beta buxed bruh
focus on lifting, let the number go up, and keep going.
Unless you are trying to get some ass here or hand your ass up im not sure why you are trying to do this behaviour.
this is good advice. abandon all powershitter cope and ego lifting and just focus on improving. literally no one is being impressed by what you do at the gym. people do not notice you at all.
I think I've seen maybe 2 or 3 men in the almost 10 years i've been lifting do a weighted pull up. Most cannot even do a pullup properly (kipping/momentum). And I see tons of men doing the assisted pullups/dips every day. What the frick man.
On another note, does anyone know if it's fine to just hold dumbbels on your feet or is a chain the only proper way? The chain is so cumbersome
>does anyone know if it's fine to just hold dumbbels on your feet or is a chain the only proper way? The chain is so cumbersome
it will work, but you'll spend too much focus and every trying to keep it from falling at some point. if the chain feels cumbersome then you're probably not wearing it right. it should feel comfy. watch a youtube vid on how to wear it, and if your gym has a shitty one just buy a good one yourself.
I am able to do it just fine, but I was wondering if the weight distribution makes it easier than a chain
>What the frick man.
Most men are so overweight and fat they cant develop the muscle to do a pullup. They can partial negatives but the weight against the underdeveloped muscle is far to much to get anywhere.
Its why they suggest you dont even do them or dips if you are overweight and starting out because its a huge waste of time for fatties compared to swimming and normal weightlifting.
The assisted machine lets them practice the form but thats really about it.
> if it's fine to just hold dumbbels on your feet
that works the issue is as you really start to work you aren't going to be focused on your feet and will probably drop it.
You have probably seen gym walls near pull up stations cracked to shit because of this or just flat out broken mirrors when the dumbbell lands it bounces in a direction.
The chain shouldnt be uncomfortable, something is not right
the chain isnt uncomfortable its just annoying, i like to walk around our gym track inbetween sets.
ive done up to 95lb dumbbels with dips and never dropped them
Dumbells on feet get really fricking awkward when you get to higher weights. I don't really see the issue with the chain.
>What the frick man
Most men are weak pieces of shit. They are food off heated plastic their whole life and grew up in a feminized society.
as some1 whos been pulling for 10+ years i can tell u to stick to plates especially if you have thin plates at the gym, belt and either rope or flat rope
Depends on bodyweight, obviously a +60kg at 60kg bodyweight is easier than doing it at 100kg
120kg total weight (bw+weight) is decent
150kg total is good
180 kg + is probably advanced/elite
I do a 4x8 with 30lbs added and girls get wet when they touch my lats, do with this information what you will
Id say 5x+50kg is when i know somebody is real about weighted pull ups/chin ups or w/e. Respectable would be 5x+32 kg
10 reps with 1 plate is decent
The issue I see with pullups/chinups is no one focusing on negative and not staying at the top at all, it's like everyone is trying to speedrun through them which is just silly. You'll get called out for it in bench and curls but not on pullups which is moronic
Also not going back to a dead hang to start their next rep. And to all the chest to bar morons: that depends mostly on where your center of gravity is, so basically it means how far away your legs are from your back (for core engagement), changes the angle at which the bar is. Think of the movement as OHP vs bench. Your chest will not touch the bar if you're perfectly straight (similar to ohp)
How the frick do I have a better weighted pull up than this guy. Both absolute and as % of bw
10 pull ups
For a 1rm, 2pl8s, any style grip, and chin above bar is a good goal. Total weight pulled of 300+lbs (bodyweight included) is even better
