Pull ups are evil

Pull ups are the work of the devil. Can people have strong backs and just suck at pullups? Im going to stick to them I tell ya damnet.lol
 
I'm pretty weak at pull-ups and I must look hilarious while doing them. My abs actually get sore because I have to use my legs to finish the set.
 
They're by FAR my worst exercise. I'm going to start hitting them hard. But I do my chinups with my hands all the way out on the slanty end things. :bawling:
 
just like an upper body squat, they suck ass but work
 
Ive been doing nothing but chin/pull ups for my back recently. Doing endless amount of sets throughout the day. Its definitely becoming a love/hate relationship haha
 
i like to take the exercise im weakest at and just kill it week in and out untill it becomes my strongest....pull ups is that exercise and has been for a couple months now
 
i've hated pullups for a long time. marine corps makes you do them a lot. pure dead hangs. knees have to stay below your waist, can't kick, can't get your body swinging for momentum, have to pause briefly with arms fully extended at the bottom.....with those requirements, 20 pullups was considered a perfect score. closest i ever got was 18. we were allowed to switch grips in the middle, so long as you didn't get off the bar. most everyone would start off overhand and then switch to underhand. i was usually good for 11 or 12 overhand, then another 3 or 4 underhand. i have to see what i can do now though, been a long time since i tried to bang out 20 of them.

They're not pullups unless you do them as described here :D
