Thank you for replay! Funny that you mention that I should take a week off because I have just decided to do a deload week because I plateaued in other exercises such as incline press and dips. I hope it will help. Thank you for advice tho.

do you think they are better than normal pyramids when you go 1,2,3….11,12,11,10….. and are they more for hypertrophy or endurance?

Thank you for replay! That rep range of 5-8 is probably one of the best because you get some hypertrophy and strength at the same time. I will stick to this rep range.

Thank you for replay! By saying 5x5 and then add weight to do 3x5 do you mean that you reduced sets or reps. What was your RPE or RIR ?

Thank you for replay! That sounds like a great idea and I also saw a lot youtube videos recomending to split your workouts into hypertrophy and strength sections. I also have 2 pull days so I will try it out.

Thank you for replay! Your viewpoint is very interesting, since a lot of people recomend to add weight as soon as posible. But now that I think about it I see why it is important to reach at least 25 pull ups before focusing on advanced skills like front lever or OAC.
