  • chin ups - any advice

    i have been researching and i think lifting your own natural body weight is the key to getting stronger

    what my question is how do you get better at chins up

    of course keep at it and improve each target etc etc

    but to be able to do sets i cant just do it from my own weight because i cant do ten or so

    should i put weight on the seat thing and work at it that way?????

          Just do sets of as many as you can right now and slowly build up the number of reps in each set every 2 or 3 weeks.

            The way you get stronger is by simply lifting more weight. It's not rocket science. Are any of the worlds strongest men of Pro Powerlifters doing solely bodyweight exercises? NO!

            Go HEAVY ON Deadlifts, Squats and Bench!!!!

                  I think this is just a ploy to make up and coming boxers ****ty.

                  then they have no choice but to turn to mma.

                  cause you know when i want to improve my pull ups i go out and squat till my legs burn

                    I already told you it was Till Lindemann, the lead Vocalist for Rammstein.

                    You don't lose speed by doing core lifts like Squats and Deadlifts. So I don't know what you are talking about. Have you looked at NFL players? Since they started using weights the players have been becoming bigger, stronger and faster at dramatic rates. Get with the times people.

                    You can implement weight training without losing speed. You have to do it the right way, and you are likely doing it the wrong way.

                    You're a ******. This has nothing to do with MMA and this is not restricted to a specific sport. And you're basically saying all MMA fighters are slow which is even more ******ed.

                    Plenty of Boxers do core lifts like squats.

                    Squats won't improve pull-ups. But the original post I quoted (which you didn't seem to read) was that getting stronger is NOT achieved by doing BW exercises.
