Baller Chef23 Posted November 13, 2015 Baller Share Posted November 13, 2015 I did 6 this week. I do weigh 230 lbs though so while I have a long way to go I don't think it totally sucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller DefectiveDave Posted November 13, 2015 Baller Share Posted November 13, 2015 I got 7 last year, and now I managed to get 8 this year. I've lost about 10 lbs though, so I don't know if that even counts. Last one didn't count due to bad form. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller jetpilotg4 Posted November 13, 2015 Baller Share Posted November 13, 2015 Does one a day for 30 days count as 30 ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller OldboyII Posted November 14, 2015 Baller Share Posted November 14, 2015 @jetpilotg4 it should count as 33, because you get 10% bonus as a returning customer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller RazorRoss3 Posted November 14, 2015 Baller Share Posted November 14, 2015 Tested my count today to make sure I still had 20+ in me... I was not disappointed. 20 with good form, could have squeezed a few ugly ones out to make it 25 I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller_ MISkier Posted November 14, 2015 Baller_ Share Posted November 14, 2015 Due to some bad tendinitis in my right elbow over the last two years, I hadn't tried any pull-ups in a long time. I was relatively pain-free today, so I tried some. Full disclosure: I did the pull-ups after 3.75 miles on the treadmill (30 minutes) and some back/core exercises. 50 years old. Weight about 145 pounds. I completed 15 pull-ups from a dead hang with shoulder width overhand grip and quiet/still form (no squirming or contortions). I bet I could get a couple more if I were fresh and probably could break 20 if I actually did these in my workout routine occasionally. The worst slalom equipment I own is between my ears.

Baller_ MISkier Posted November 16, 2015 Baller_ Share Posted November 16, 2015 @ozski, if everyone is just throwing out some BS, why did you only pick 7-10 for your answer? You gotta aim higher than that. I'll try to get some video, but I think asking a complete stranger in the gym to video some pull-ups might sound a little weird.

Baller JohnCox Posted November 16, 2015 Baller Share Posted November 16, 2015 The are nothing like skiing IMO.... How many depends on the grip. And whether or not I've overused the joints skiing and training in the week before. If not sore, overhand wide can do 25-30. With a power grip, more like 50-60..... Underhand close, probably 20 or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller ozski Posted November 17, 2015 Baller Share Posted November 17, 2015 @MattP If the pull ups happen during practice it does not count either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
