    Are weighted pull ups even worth it?

    Are weighted pull ups even worth it?

    @pinetowntree no it's not very hard to "progressively overload". progressive overload is a result of good training and recovery, not the cause. it might be harder for you to assess whether you're improving, but that goes for any exercise really

    Are weighted pull ups even worth it?

    @lovethechrist I like this reply. I think that's why you want some sort of periodization moving back and forth between the ranges. Might be where the "shock/confuse the muscle" bro-science quote comes from.

    Are weighted pull ups even worth it?

    How does progressive overload ACTUALLY work?

    To those of you who feel you've mastered pushing to true failure, do you get grindy reps no matter the exercise?

Random theory: The grindier it gets the more it resembles static training, and static training does not yield as good results, anecdotally and according to quite a few papers iirc. Likely true in the opposite direction as well, so trying to...
