Pullups

[Jess]

I am horrible at pull ups can't even lift myself up

anyone else can't do them

[Patchy]

I'm terrible at them, I can't do them properly.

[Scarface]

I do 100 pull up's sometimes if I feel really energetic 120. I really like the exercise. Helps build your abs and arms strength.

[Jess]

and unfortunately I am too weak to do even 1/4.

glad to know I am not alone. I totally suck at them

[beedubs]

i can do about 2, but its wierd cuz im muscular.

[lipstick_kisses23]

i can do 3!!! but then my arms give out. my mom says I need to do more pushups

[Jess]

all the pull ups in the gym I can't even reach anyways lol

[sportsguy1997]

I do like 3x20-25 every other day. Start with 1-2 every other day then build up every other week. You will get there!!!

[Uprising]

I can get 4 maybe 5 tops. I need to work on arm strength

[Jacob1993]

I can do 4, need to work on my arm strength :rolleyes:

[dmeek7]

use a chair

[Xenomi]

i do about thirty everyday, just start off slow and build your way up :)

[bmurdock60]

i can do 20 if i am feeling it i am hoping to get stronger my goal is 40 by the end of the summer

[scuba steve]

if you think regular pullups are bad try doing Latissimus muscle pullups, with the bar going to the back of your head rather than in front.

I can never do that x_x

[Blood]

I can do 20-25.

[chilldude]

im not sure how many i can do...but try jumping pull ups first, to help with your strength.

[keveenjones]

pull-up is an exercise that many people (even professionals) avoid because it is just hard. Pull up requires you to raise your entire bodyweight, which is extremely hard for someone who has not done it before.

[toobig]

people that can do it are lucky i have a friend who take the piss out of me cos i cnt prob do them

[Jess]

I couldn't do one since the beginning :S I think my little brother can. he's pretty strong because he's a swimmer

[ErykaInspire.]

I can barely do one.
During gym this year the guys decided to go first and they were jacking them off like they were nothing. Then I went.
I was pulling myself up and started laughing, Got all the way up, and dropped back down. Then bowed and said "Thank you, Thank you." :D
Everyone clapped and my coach said "Very nice. Very nice."
I can't do them, but I guess it's the way you do them to appear less embarrassed :P

[Jess]

I can't even lift myself up :S I would be so embarrassed

[Asylum]

in my younger and more vulnerable years ( haha Gatsby) I was able to do like 4. I haven't tried since 7th grade. But I probably couldn't do them now. *sigh* :(

[Marcie]

I can.. I can usually do about 15-18

[martine4161]

I am exercise lover and at the same time body building is my passion. So basically I can do 100 pull ups at once but after that my Bi-shapes are like 4-5 inch more than the real size.

[Jess]

wow 100? :O

[Icilim]

When i was younger I couldnt, but i kept working out and I now ican do it

[Jess]

I can.. I can usually do about 15-18

that's a lot more than some people in my class can do

Erm... I don't mean to offend or anything like that, but 100 doesn't sound real. That's close to the world record.

[dbrkk]

I can do about 8-10 if I really try.

Yes, suffice it to say it is extremely, extremely unlikely that poster is actually capable of 100 bodyweight pullups without rest.

For me, it depends on bodyweight. When my arms and back are fresh I do about 12-15 pullups in a set max.

A very nice & easy way to injure your shoulders & neck.

aka don't do them unless you already knew about them and the risks involved.

+ there's better ways to do challenging pull ups.

Meh I can do maybe 10 or so, but it's rare that I do them anyways..

[scuba steve]

he more than likely did a few reps of the exercise, because if you are a regular gymer you could do more or less 100 in around 3 reps

[Antonioc]

a few?

it's not really that bad. To injure your neck whilst doing them, you'd have to be going at a considerable speed which would mean having already trained with the exercise numerous times (and not to mention that you would be doing the exercise rather carelessly) since it is a hard adjustment compared to regular pullups... it sounds more awkward than it is:)

[Kitty Purry]

I can do like 4:(. I'm weak!!:(. I need to work on my arm strength:)

[Brighter.Tomorrow]

Harm..Pulls-ups? Not my thing, I die after three. I'm great at pushups though! =D

[emt.Cam]

I can probably do 20 if I try.

[scuba steve]

i one a game of "hang on" last night between four of my mates and won a fiver from the pot lol

[Haydzzz]

Wow i dont no how people do it. i can do like 30 maybe 35 at most. som1 said they did over 100 :S

[scuba steve]

for one rep that's very good! the guy that said they did over a 100 most likely did them in various rep sequences

[Haydzzz]

yeah thats what i though, i was probs going over the top with 35 so probs 30 max on a good dayy. But after that i can barely use my arms.

[Bougainvillea]

I have to do them almost every day.

The most I've done before I just had to let go was 48. But I'm not going to do that again.
Otherwise, I've got to do them.

[Antares]

I can do like 8 last time i tried lol

[Jenna.]

I can't do them either. I'm lucky if I can do one. :/

[Hatsune Miku]

I can do like 3 then I fall on my ass lol

[bmurdock60]

10 first set 8 the 2nd and 5 if i am lucky the 3rd but i am getting better

[walpoler93]

i can get 10

[DanielBoy]

I did football for five years, up to my softmore year, that is when my bisexuality started to overtake my thoughts and I could no longer take the showers or the locker room. At that point I could probably do 25 or 30.

After I quit athletics, I stopped weight lifting, and although my metabolism keeps me nice and slim, it makes it imposable to keep muscle if I am not working it out. I am finally back in the gym and can do 4 or 5.

[SimSailorNick]

I can only do about 5-7. Haha.

[AwesomeAussie]

i can do bout 20 without rest

[Noah_101]

[wantohelp]

[tekronhoye]

[Bmatlman]
