How can I increase my Pullup reps?

For BB rows
Do you use an over or underhand grip?
Do you pick the weight up from a low position or high?
How do you set up for your lift?
Where do you bring the bar to?

start off overhand then use a mixed grip as the weight gets heavier
bring the bar to my sterum
set up with the bar resting on the rack pins, usually the three hole

Try going underhand so that your elbows just clear your lats.
Bring the bar to just bellow the belly button.
Start standing up like on the lockout of a dead, set your arch in your back, take a deep breath and lean forward.

Don't use mixed grip on a row you're training the sides differently plus the bar path must change to accomodate anatomy. Get some straps to hold heavier weights.

i've used one of those in one of the gyms i worked out earlier. the problem at least for me is that since you are lying with your torso pressed against the bench, it feels kind of restrictive while getting a deep breath in.

agreed very muchly, My ribs always get crushed from these and Im always out of breath.
But atleast my lats are getting a good blast
