Most pullups you have done

Saw a poll for pushups so i went ahead and did one for pullups...

25 reps for me, but they were really clean full reps at bodyweight ~220.

The guys on xfit can do a hell of a lot but they KIP in order to do more, so it's not a level comparison.

Did 50 in my last workout: 18, 12, 10 and did 50 in between sets of squats and military as 10 sets of 5.

PS this poll is flawed: if you've done 20 then you could be either 15-20 or 20-30, etc

did 19 at a bodyweight of 220 a few years ago.

Can someone explain the proper way to do a pull up? I see explanations varying among styles. Some say, go up and all the way down to the point right before the shoulders lock out <dont lock them all the way out> while others say go up and then down but keep the elbows bent in order to keep the lats flexed. Is one style more for building muscle while the other is more for ego?

When I was 17 I could do 40. Now I could probably do 25, but never try to rep them out

We had a pull up bar, and they were the only weights exercise I did, and I never added extra weight, so just did more and more reps.
