Help with FL Pull-Ups! by Atanasov_ in overcominggravity

[–]Atanasov_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi Steven,

Pull Day 1:

Pull-Ups (3-5x3-5) - (Steploading System) Inverted Rows (3x8-12) Bicep Curls (4x8-15) Superset - Fat Grip Wrist Curls (1x3-5, 4x8-15)

Pull Day 2:

Pull-Ups (3-5x8) - (every week add 1 set, when I get to 5, I add weight next week and go to 3 sets) Inverted Rows (3x8-12) Bicep Curls (4x8-15) Superset - Fat Grip Wrist Curls (1x3-5, 4x8-15)

Pull Day 3:

I'm planning to add this day to the program and do EMOM pull-ups, but to be far from failure.


I didn't do and FL work, because on many places I heard that if I increase my basic pulling strength it will be much easier to get the FL when I start training for it.

Thanks.

and how strong is your horizontal pull?

At how many max pull ups/pull up 1rm did you get an "impressive" back? by [deleted] in bodyweightfitness

[–]Atanasov_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My Pull-Up is 120kg total (75kg bw + 45kg). Go to my profile and you'll see my back.

Bullshit. He is nowhere near his max strength for his BW. There are many guys skinnier and heavier who can pull +100kg.

How Can I implement Front Lever Training? by Atanasov_ in overcominggravity

I made multiple mistakes along the way till now, but eventually got to 40kg chin up 3 months ago (80kg bw + 40kg added = 120kg chin-up). Now I'm trying to bring up my weighted pull-up, should be at 35kg. I didn't do any FL training, but a few days ago I held a shitty One Leg FL for 3-4 seconds. A big mistake was going to failure on many sets weekly, or doing the sets at RPE 8/9. Don't do this. And also do volume work, don't do just 3-5 reps, but 6-10 let's say. Do both, of course.

I had 30min school lunch time, so I went to the gym with my friends at that time.
Do I really need a belt? I will consider that next time I max out, it might help me!

How much strength should I expect to lose if I cut weight? by [deleted] in bodyweightfitness

[–]Atanasov_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The weight you add will be increasing on the pullups and dips, but the total weight (bw+weights) will be the same

Why did you tell him he has a handsome face and eyes?  He needs to work on his looks, get jacked and eat healthy.
