Don't feel bad about that. Gandalf couldn't do a pullup to save his life, but he was still a badass.

Start on a lat pull down machine and do bent over rows. I went from zero to over a dozen in 18 month's time

even if it's wrong start doing them with momentum.

I've been back in the gym for a week and can already hit 225x8 in flat bench

bodyweight exercises are for skinnyfags coping with being weak

momentum on the way up is fine if you control the way down, eccentric overload is a stimulus to muscle growth OP

>> No.19581656

>>19581355
Just jump to the bar, hold yourself at the top, then let yourself slowly go down. Then drop off the bar, and repeat 10 times.

Congrats you just did a set of negative pull ups! See uncle Scoob for video guide.

>momentum on the way up
right because specifying "on the way up" was totally necessary because so many people are trying to generate momentum on the way down

kek, zero % chance you remotely look like you lift

Go for a run and then try it imediately after before cooldown.

Pullups are easier when you are full of adrenaline

>> No.19582430

>>19581702
to someone who doesn’t do pull-ups yeah you should specify
you have a bad attitude for someone just getting back into lifting

>> No.19582511

It takes like a week to get to 3 pull ups..

>> No.19582589

i just can’t understand how a male cannot pull himself at least one time. i unironically believe if you can’t do 10 pull-up at will you’re a lesser man.

swimming freestyle will also work the same muscles that will allow you to do a ton of pullups if you swim a lot

Thats ok anon, I guarantee you will be able to do a lot more than one pull up once we get done with you. Just take a seat and sign these forms.

No way this person can do 15. What a larp. Not I without a forklift truck helping him. Look at his arm. Imagine the weight to muscle ratio..... dreamer try doing three.

>> No.19583101

>>19581355
unless if you are severely over weight just hit the lat pull machine twice a week, bicep curls twice a week, and by the end of the month you'll be doing 8-10 easy. If you are overweight you got to take care of of that first man

>> No.19583250

>>19582430
imagine being so braindead someone would need to specify to you that the momentum would need to be generated upwards on a fucking pull-up

people who dont lift are inferior in every way shape or form. the only exception are those making 8 figs a year

i used to be able to do 8-10. i doubt i could do one now. neet life has it's consequences.
