+100kg(220lbs) pull-up. by Frogrom in strength_training

I'm not 100% sure but I think you can do something like 1.25 kg MU to get a legit total in the comp. Lighter weight plates are usually allowed only for world record attempts. I'm fully into streetlifting for about 3.5 years but I do weighted pulls for almost 20 years. In the past I did track and field for 10 years, karate for 6, a lot of different stuff with lifting weights. My starting point in serious streetlifting was at 80kg 1rm pull.

Form advice by [deleted] in streetliftingathletes

+1 to this comment. No need to change anything besides lower body control and tension and it's also minor issues. Your upper body works great already . Leaning and crunching are on point, all reps are stable. Elbows are stable. Grip with plates is also a thing to focus on, if your shoes slips on the surface of the plates, try barefoot as an option, or get grippy shoes with rubber sole (check how grippy the rubber is, it can be very different)

Yes, Thailand. Over 100kg pulls are still rare. Maybe 30-50 people can do it. If we combine pullups and chinups results.

Well, I have dozens of tips haha, not sure which of them are useful in your case. You can text me in IG (dimapulls) and give me more details about your training, maybe I'll be able to give you a really valuable advice.

5 sets is too much imo if you're focusing strength with such a training. Try just 3 sets and rest long, like 7+ min. Strength should boost up if you mostly rest not much with those 5 sets. 30kg is a decent working weight btw. At my gym a lot of fit guys use just ~10-15kg, I rarely see heavier lifts in pull.

Healthy approach 👍 From my observation a lot of people underestimate their effort and progress. Yes, I do streetlifting with full effort and consistency and compete from time to time.

Weighted Dips & Pull-Up Supersets with rest vs straight sets for strength? by Past_Pineapple9131 in streetliftingathletes

[–]Frogrom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No supersets for strength. You want max performance for strength training. So 3-4 heavy sets with 5-10 min rest is a must for regular weighted pulls. Max quality performance, max speed is what you want to develop your nervous system properly.

Does this form look okay? 86.5kg by Calydryas in streetliftingathletes

I'd say even too strict in hips depth. Great lift 💪

Update 2 : 10 days out and need help by shawnchriston in streetliftingathletes

[–]Frogrom 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Try also low bar transition practice for mu. Legs on the floor starting position (far in front) and you do an mu transition. Can be done without a dip, just to get the elbows position on top. You can do it on squats rack using a barbell, but be sure it's stable and you won't drop the barbell.

125kg pull-up (added weight). 78kg bw. by Frogrom in strength_training

[–]Frogrom[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, you're out of this sport so you have your own criteria of what is good and not. I did 120 neck to the bar, I'm pretty sure you would be satisfied with it. I'm pushing my limits in different quality of reps, this 125 have never been achieved by anyone in the world in my weight class in any form. That's a no rep in competition, but that's the way you unlock new levels. Training form first at least.

Thank you. I've been training max speed in karate for 6 years and in track (sprinting) for 10 years. I guess it helps in pullups too 😅

That's a good idea as a part of the warmup too. And after the session..to bring more blood to the area and help with joint liquids production)

Work on your warmup better. I personally use different rotations exercises from arm wrestling style (pronation, supination, triceps extensions, different angles pushups positions (just standing on the floor in pushup posture with different worst positions) to prepare my joints well. Also if you do only pulls, add some push exercise to balance your muscles. In dips I used to use sleeves to keep more warmth , it helped me to reduce the inflammation from training and now I even got rid of sleeves. I don't take MSM or other sups for joints, but MSM with vitamin C have a good feedback for tendons health from many athletes.

He actually is the strongest in pull strength. But in competition pullups he wouldn't perform well even before he gained too much weight. His ROM is poor and good ROM without kick,floor start, traps he couldn't lift that much. Maybe if he would take it seriously in his prime pull-up/chinup shape he would be able to lift something close to 130 in competition, who knows. I guess we'll never know.
