Wide grip, palms away (of course)...I've done 15 at 280+

Can do about 15, however chins are done notoriously badly - how many times do you see people rocking, using momentum and not extending their arms on the negative.

I do them at the end of my back workout, but as singles.

I pull quickly, then do a super slow negative (about 10 seconds). Superset this with weighted plate crunches (as a V up) until you get 20
Ouch ,your arms kill for days.

-I call them "Hospitals" in my training diary.

I prefer to do as many sets of 15 as I can and leave it at that

18 with body weight

5 with 100lbs suspended by a belt

Impressive !

Usually you're either good at bodyweight and suck with weights or the opposite

ive got about 16, with rest pauses but still hanging on the bar.

i dont use momentum, my legs are straight and together, toes pointed. i go all the way down, and blast it back up.

god i love chinups.

If you love chinups so much that get your damn journal going again holmes.

I can get about 12 solid reps @244 with a full stretch. I try to keep swinging to a minimum, but it just seems to happen; I don't plan or rely on it.

i can do about 30+ bodyweight but only about 15-20 after a workout
