YAY! how many pullups can you do?

[rippedtrojan]

well, recently i've been thinking i couldn't do as many pullups as i could before, mainly 'cause my weight has gone up. before i was able to get up to 19 pullups, but that was at a weight of 150 or less and at least 6 months ago. today, after work a few of us were playing basketball, and there are some pullup bars over there. so i was like lets have a pullup contest (i knew no one else there could come close to me). only one person even tried, he got 5. i went and i did 20. hell yeah, one more than i've ever done. and i have been thinking i had been able to do less than before.

how many pullups you can do with one bodyweight max set

 

[Code]

Ohhh, you mean in one sitting....

Weight: 185#
Pull-ups: 3 sets of 12

Not great, but not too bad.

 

[rippedtrojan]

yeah not bad. i am up around 170 now.

 

[rippedtrojan]

well how many is many?

i used to have a goal of being able to do 30 pullups. i eventually figured that goal would have been useless.

MY FIRST SET I AVERAGE 17 - 20, ILL DO THEM UNTIL I HIT 50 REPS.

I HAVE ALWAYS BEEN MAD STRONG AT PULLUPS.

The most I have ever done is 55 in one set! I never bother going over 30 now! I stay in the 12-25 range! But I usually add weight to these sets! I have never had a hard time with pull-ups, but I know it can be a bitch for some people!

I can do 26-27 on my first set... but that is all the way up... all teh way down to rock bottom hang.

I took the Marine Corps chinup challenge several years ago. The contest was to see who could do the most chinups. I did 19 all the way up... all the way down... full extension... and they gave the prize to a nitwit kid who did 25 halfway chinups.

[supersizeme]

I remember doing a pullup once. It fuckin sucked!! Never again!!

 

[TxArmyGuy]

My company had a pft a few weeks ago, I got 23 pull ups, however after 20 they arent worth any points.
