@christianjackie What's your current strategy? If your current max is 3 reps then you could do 3 sets of 2 reps, filling each set with negatives up to 5 and progressing from there. So: Day 1: 3 x 2 pull-ups + 3 negatives Day 2: 3 x 3 pull-ups + 2 negatives Day 3: 3 x 4 pull-ups + 1 negative...

@sweetapple Yes

@die2self365 Well, you could post a form check of both on the daily, or wait for tomorrow to post it on form check fridays. Maybe you're making your rows harder than they have to be somehow. Rows use slightly different muscle groups than pull-ups though, as rows involve more of the middle-upper...

@radicalson Congratulations on your first pull-up! It's dope, isn't it?

@dawn16 Can you afford rings? Or one of those doorway pull-up bars? You can adapt the bedsheet method for pull-ups too, not sure how that compares to a window. Don't get discouraged!

@waytruthlife 3 x a week with a rest day in between of each work well for most people. Something like every monday, wednesday and friday for example.

@dawn16 How long those 3-4? How is your rowing? Maybe you can get at least 1 by the end of the month!

@verdecia Surely they can!

@lsouza I was waiting for you!

@shawn2033 IIRC from the video Daniel said so because you can do more reps like this. That's good when you wanna show off or prepping for a fitness test (unless those enforce dead hang, but I think most don't), but it sucks when you can do 10 pull-ups but barely 1 dead hang one. There's also...

@ecosse Congrats! Make sure you don't rush and get injured. L-sits pull-ups are hard, but if you can do 3x5 wide I think you're not far. The hardest part is the start.

@womentake Maybe it's better to "spread" it in more sets. Like, instead of 5/4 doing 3/3/3. You don't need to go to failure every set for strength, and you can do more total volume this way. Of course 5/4 = 3/3/3, but you get what I mean.

@aradhit Try the scheme we recommend, it works pretty well for a lot of people! Good luck!

@immd Tendonitis sucks. Deloading + high rep slow eccentric work in the end of the workout does wonders for me to avoid it. I'm deloading this week, even haha.

@kittenshere Welcome aboard!

@luke Hey, thanks! I love their stuff

@mikaeri Sure, wide grip, chin-up, this is a everything-pull-up month. But, since this is a motivational month, maybe you can get motivated to improve your pull-up game haha

@adifferenttruth Wow, you're a beast! Congrats!

@thomaslowrens Yep, but I got them all in my inbox and tried to read it all. Still somehow missed it.

@thomaslowrens Somehow I missed this comment the first time. Quality tips, thanks!
