I can do about three or four hanging unnassisted one armed pullups. Trust me, there is no way a one arm wide grip pull up can be done using strict form. I’ve tried and your body just swings so all your mass is inline with your arm. If you use your other arm to “assist” in holding the other grip bar then you are physically going to be pulling on the grip bar, thus producing an upward resultant force. So, that wouldn’t be a one armed pullup, it would be cheating. Also, when I do one arm pull ups its almost impossible to keep from swinging at the bottom, so switch hands and perform them alternating (ie. right arm up and down to hanging position, switch hands while hanging, left arm up and down, etc.)
Joel nailed it. The body will go where the arm is. So there is no grip width.
lets see if neil breaks us all down with his scientific sources and studies like he did on the saturated fat thread.
maybe NASA has done a study proving that a one arm wide grip pull up is possible in outter space.
After ya all master that there wide grip one arm pull up we can go Snipe Huntin!
Here in Pittsburgh we have some of the best Snipe huntin around.
:o)
I can’t believe we’re even discussing this!
in case you all havent noticed neil has since stated on another thread that the whole one ar pull up thing was a joke.
obviously a man i mean boy that cannnot stand up and admit when he is wrong.
I have a pretty decent bullshit geiger, and when I wave it at NeilG it starts clicking, loudly.
i just did a pullup with my tongue. damn i am so the man.
