I can relate to the first part, I'm good at pull ups. Some ppl I know say "only because you weigh less than me you can do more pull ups than me" but it's a strength to bodyweight ratio and body composition thing. Fair enough you have more weight to carry, but naturally you should have more muscle to compensate. If body fat is holding you back then you lack conditioning. And what about the skinny guys who can't do pull ups to further prove the point that it's a ratio thing.

Please listen to my story.I am 20 years old and I did my first CHIN UP 3 months ago and I hadn't been able to do any until then.I was watching pull up videos and I was collecting necessary informations for beginners for about a month.That is when I said to myself:"It's time".I made a pull up bar and put it in my shed.First day I trained,second day was a rest day.Basically I trained every second day.I started off with doing half pull ups and chin ups.I assume you can at least do top motion of pull up.When I got tired,next thing I did were pull up negatives (1 set) and then chin up negatives (1 set) and you do it until you get tired.And the last thing I did was pull up hang and then chin up hang.Basically all you should do is to grip the pull up bar and hold until you get tired (first pull up and then chin up).Repeat until you can't hold it for more than 10 seconds or you can set your limit based on your current strenght.That's it.After few days you should notice that your forearm got stronger and you have more endurance while doing pull up hangs.After some time you should be able to do your first CHIN UP and when you reach about 4 or 5 chin ups in one set you might be able to do your first pull up and for me pull ups have become easier than chin ups since then.Remember - Train every second day! (Rest time between sets should be between 1.5 and 2 minutes and drink a little bit of water between sets)

The problem with that is there is not enough volume, if one can only do one rep at a time.... Inverted rows and negative-pullups (jump to get up, or whatever) in combination works well. Adding scapula raises (from hanging position, not using arms) that he shows in another video can help too.... If one goes with band-assisted pullups only, then the muscle needed at the bottom of the pull isn't improved as well/quickly as it can be with slow negative pullups, since bottom is when band is assisting the most. If only using lat pulldowns, then it ignores a lot of the stabilizing/secondary muscles. (Though each of those two can help.)

I'm no longer overweight and can do a max of 15 chinups and about 8 pullups.

I started seeing big differences when I started doing that instead, since deadlifts only did so much for me.

Pull ups are something I have always struggled with. I used to be really overweight, like I got up to somewhere around 400 pounds. I'm 6'4", and the lowest I got down to was 249. I was running 5 miles in an hour and could do a few chin ups. I fell off that a bit, however, I have been working on strength training. I can do about 100 push ups in little over an hour and I'm doing some cardio workouts like Tae Bo. I can keep up pretty well with the Basic work out and I'm pushing for more. I'm currently about 320 pounds and can max out at about 13 push ups before resting on the floor between reps, and then I can usually crank out a few more. At the moment, I've been doing pull up negatives off and on, with the first negative being about a 6 second descent, and I'm working on clearing out a time in my schedule to focus more on increasing my push up set to 20 and my unaided pull up to one. I don't really consider myself to be out of shape, however, I definitely would like to boost my strength level. This video pointed out some key differences between pull ups and chin ups that I'll need to keep in mind, and I'll work on implementing both of them in alternate intervals in my work out.

About 3 months ago, I couldn't hope to do a single chinup, let alone a proper pullup. But I used an assisted chinup machine to unload my weight, and gradually reduced the weight on that. I can now do about 3 good chinups, and 1 proper pullup. Same goes for dips: I used the same machine to do assisted dips, reducing the weight over time.

at 24 your natural hormone production levels are still high. If you work out regularly and are progressing strength-wise then it could be due to diet. If you are not getting enough calories in to fuel your increasing workload, then you need to get more calories in, i.e. eat more. You could also try some supplements also, i.e. pre-workouts like just some black coffee or some silly commercial pre-workout.

Try doing a mixed grip to build up your pulling strength, like how dead lifters do a mixed grip for their deadlifts. When I couldn't do pull-ups, I tried a mixed grip, one hand overhand grip and the other an underhand grip. It helped shift the focus and I was able to use my stronger side (underhand grip) to assist the weaker side (overhand grip) Hope this tip helps. If that's still too difficult, you can build your pulling strength on a cable machine doing lat pull downs and eventually move on to doing the pull-ups

Do deadlifts, bend over rows& flys, inverted rows and shrugs (train your traps because the initiation of the movement is done by the lower traps!) After deadlifts I can do usually 5..7 pull-ups more. This is because the deadlift activates the lats. Don't give up I am 49 y.o. and a year ago I wasn't able to do them. Now they are one my four favorite excercise (the others are frontsquats, dips and deadlifts).
@Caarnji10 жыл бұрын
If you didn´t progress using that machine for so long stop it and do it the old fashioned way. Get a pull up bar and make slow controlled negatives and also train grip and arm strength with just hanging as long as you can, this way works 100% to progress when done regularly (like 3 times a week 3-5 sets and a few times the grip thing, just stop the sets before fail or you get elbow pain because compensating). I think the issue is these machines don´t train asymmetrical enough to get the proper functional strength in all muscles involved, nor do they push one to use the whole body contraction/activation of muscles like in actual pullups. Also make sure you can do chin ups first since it´s easier, if not do the above just with chin ups until you can do them and than go for pullups.
