Increasing Back Definition

Heres the idea :

200 pullups per day, first thing in the morning,after ingesting 20 tablets of BCAAs/40grams of whey protein. timed. For 4 weeks.Every day try to beat your time.
Lifting routine does not change.

Take your back, your leaness,and your strength to another level.I know this defies a lot of bodybuilding rules;some of you may call bs; take it or leave it; its up to you.

Will this “etch in” detail and striations?

heh heh heh

pardon me for asking but, what the hell are you talking about??

Im all for high frequency training, but thats insane.

For one, your muscles do need “some” sort of break!

Second, if your going to failure, your strength is going nowhere but down. Too much volume, intensity and frequency! Those three cannot be present at the same time!

I do call BS. Many have built up their backs without such insanity.

I think doing pullups every day “can” help, especially for building up your strength, but decreasing the volume (alot!) and not going to failure would be required.

To do what you suggested would be a pipe dream.

Oh and, what was the point to this thread? You didn’t ask a question, or for advice. I’m lost. Do you need something?

You might as well do 200 deadlifts if getting leaner is your point.

Why not just train normally to get stronger and do some cardio, lower carbs…etc?

I’ll leave it. Thanks again.

There was a post about doing pullups to failure every few hours and everyone said that was a bad idea. Why would you think this would be any different.

I used to elsewhere run an Idiot of the Month (IOM) competition that was fairly popular – ballots and everything and quite enthusiastic voting – but wouldn’t want to do that now.

The judging criterion was presentation of misinformation, combined with absolute dogmatism, stubbornness, and unwillingness to accept any reason or facts.

Simple lack of knowledge or error counted nothing towards being able to win IOM. Actually the smarter the person tried to make themselves sound (while being dead wrong) the better their chances of winning.

hahahaha

damn, you got me!

but at least you can understand my reasoning for doing that, i was doin it for some extra attitude to hit the weights harder, but i did some research and found out it was a real bad idea

i corrected myself, i’ll never do it again

You guys are close minded! If it flies in the face of common wisdom and common sense, it HAS to be right!

LOL @ this thread.

guys look how jacked he is, he MUST be right /HUGE sarcasm

Are you retarded?
