I didn't see that vid. But I thought chins were overhand and pull-ups underhand. All good

 

[spartacus]

technique is perfect, but test was other form which is harder.

Look at all the other guys, they do other style.

 

[spartacus]

I am sure you will get near 20, at least.

 

[spartacus]

no reason, why we cannot do both styles in comp, but two lists. So your effort is not wasted, again well done Taurus.

 

[taurus]

Just did 22 your way. Vid coming up

 

[spartacus]

wow, that is incredible. I have never known anyone who could do more that way, and after training.

Well I do have a chin up bar in my backyard. I'd hope I was decent at them. Lol

 

[spartacus]

mate, we all have access to chinup bars. You are strong; end of story.

 

[spartacus]

tremendous stuff; just watched set.

All good. Been doing them for years. I remember not being able to do 1 when I was about 14 or so!

 

[spartacus]

at 17, I could only do 1.

at 22, did 19, my best at 81kg bodyweight.

But 22 at 98kg is excellent stuff, and quite an achievement.

You've come a long way then. With all our junior rugby stuff, we were introduced to chins and pull-ups pretty early. A good introduction to so many different ways of training. Thinking outside the square is what has kept me
Interested all these years.

so strong!!!!

 

[spartacus]

yes, it is good for young footy players and sportspeople.

all we did was pushups and situps, so nothing really for back.

I always suggest to youngsters to go to rail on boundaries and do chinning with legs on ground to get started. that way they develop their back muscles early through bodyweight movements.

Then they can progress to high bar, some probably quickly.

It looks like he has just wiped his bum with the rest of us. Unfair, make him do it one handed.

 

[steveP]

Agreed. Taurus has to do them one handed to give the rest of us a chance.
