Pull-Up Improvement?

Barbie, you don’t necessarily need a chin bar. I improvised and used various things: ledges, window sils, and best of all the partition in the toilet cubicles at work!

Progression is still key to this method. Start with 50% of your max (ie 5-6 reps) then add a rep every 2 weeks. I did 3 sets spaced evenly throughout the day on training days and 5 on non-training days with the weekends off. That seemed to work well for me.

Before going for a new personal best have 2-3 days off. That’s about it. I would say good luck, but if you put the effort in luck does not come into it!

Let me know how you get on

There is alot of info that got posted, honestly I felt kinda…lost, not knowing which one to pick. There are a few one that I had already tried, ladders, max rep set, total volume sets etc.

Like the article said, I just need to keep at it and do it as often as possible. Am thinking about getting chin up bar but I don’t find they allow you to go wide…

Thanks everyone for the posts, really appreciate it.
