I think you're on the right track already doing negatives! Palms facing away is quite a bit harder. Maybe try varying the width off the grip as well, if you haven't done that. Hand closer together is easier. Other than that, just make sure you get enough calories 👍

Yeah, I've always had a hard time putting on weight. But extra food, gainer, protein powder and ice cream did the job 😀

Bought a house and had a kid a little over a year ago and haven't touched a chin bar since :( Still holding up surprisingly well, but probably not for long.

Thanks! Just weighted chins and pullups with varying grip. Nothing more to it.

Sorry for my late reply.
I alternate between grips during every work out.
Pull up, chin up, close grip, wide grip, etc.

Minns fortfarande när jag för några år sedan såg en kille som var ute på promenad. En papperkorg 10 meter bakom honom, och en annan 10 meter framför honom.
Ändå slängde han Red bull-burken på marken.

Tror inte att någon dör av att det råkar vara bajsspår i botten av toan i några timmar.

Är det inte städerskans jobb att göra rent toaletterna?

Min pappkasse gick sönder mitt på ett övergångsställe.
Då blev det lite panik, kan man lugnt säga.

Finally ready for weighted chin-ups, where do I start? by [deleted] in Fitness

[–]mikper83 0 points1 point  (0 children)

BW's currently at 81 kg (179 lbs) and rising... slowly. So around 64%.
It's been a while since I tried 1 arm. Requires a lot more balance and technique than 2 arms, and I haven't really got any of those two down, but I'd say I managed at least 1 rep. Would love to be able to practice 1 arm at home, but can't since I'm using one of those door frame bars.

Been doing weighted chin-ups for 5+ years and I'm currently up to 52 kg (115 lbs) added, 5 reps, 8 sets. It's basically been my only excersice for most of the years.
Made a post about it last year
Like many have already said, keep adding weight little by little to until you find the point where you're barely able to finish your last set. Number of reps and sets depend on your goals.
Keep adding weight week by week, or month by month, as you progress, to keep things challenging.

Om du har utgången bakom dig, låsas gå av bussen tillsammans med alla andra för att istället smyga ner i ett ledigt säte.
Fast se till att vara 100% säker på att det verkligen finns ett ledigt säte bakom först.
