Do more pull ups if you want to do more pull ups nigga haha

I can go in and KO 5 sets of 10 like nothing because I do them all the time. And I switch my grips with each set. Overhand, underhand, 2 sets with opposite palms supinated, close grip, etc...

Start doing them all the time and they will get easier. Start with 5 sets of whatever # you think you can hit. Then increase your reps by 1 every week, or according to how your body is responding to them.

When I first started I was doing like 3 sets of 5.

If I really wanted, I think I could KO sets of like 20.

Oh yeah, your weight don't mean shit, trust me. I'm heavy myself. I've seen big ass dudes (weigh close to 300) knock out 20+ pullups like they wasn't shit.

Also if you cant finish your reps.. take 5 seconds breathe get back on the bars and finish those reps..

@DWO Idk what your current pull up level is like but maybe you can do the Armstrong Pullup Program.

I'll watch it later but Farmers walk got to be the best for building grip strength and mass in your hands

Haven't tried the two-finger pull-ups, but I do pull-ups with a thumbless grip at 5'8" 233lbs.

Pullups are way easier on a skinnier bar. If you only do pullups on the fat bars and get good at them to where they become easy, then go to a skinny bar, bruh, you'll be doing them shits for days without breaking a sweat.
