I tried at one point to train for the one arm pull up but this is just too hard for me. I don't think you should even bother if you can't do 25+ pull ups with ease ( i can't )


Doing 25+ pull ups is gonna make it more difficult to do a one arm pull up because 25+ reps in one set is training for endurance, not strength. You'd be better off keeping reps at 10 and under and increasing weight.

Anyway eshlow has 4 one arm chin ups for each arm. I doubt he ever trained specifically for one arm pull ups... he was probably doing some other exercise for those muscles. And 32kg rings muscle up is pretty sick


It took me about 6 weeks of OAC training to get a OAC so yes, I was pretty strong before I started.

But yeah, need to train for strength instead of endurance to get this... and it takes a lot of time and commitment!


To do the weighted pull ups what kind of setting you use ? A backpack full of weights?

I really don't want to get injured because i often get tendinitis in the elbow (pull ups + badminton isn't good) and i'm not too confident about my back if i try to do this kind of exercice lol.

Can you do any better? Also, they are not the main focus of some lifters...

Yea i can do better for both chin/pull. It is just that i have almost 0 experience with weight lifting and the numbers here seemed pretty impressive to me. I expected something impressive for pull ups / chin ups too, like some TLers doing one arm pull ups or stuff like that.
I wasn't really serious, i know that weightlifters don't train for this

I tried at one point to train for the one arm pull up but this is just too hard for me. I don't think you should even bother if you can't do 25+ pull ups with ease ( i can't )

You can do 20 dead hang pull ups and 30kg weighted pull ups with zero training? I find that hard to believe...

And eshlow posted a video of him doing 1 arm chin-ups some time ago.

Who said with zero training ? o,o
Never tried weighted btw.

Well to me, chins/pulls are weight lifting so I misunderstood you. Afaik, nobody here does chin/pull endurance training. Most people move to weighted because it's better for strength/size gains.

If you are actually doing dead hang chins/pulls, then I suggest you post your numbers here instead of vaguely saying you can do better.

Last time i practiced a bit i could do 20 pull ups and 25 chin ups it was like two years ago, then i stopped ( tendinitis ). Been trying again since last week doing 5-10 series. I'm kinda rusty and since i don't want to get injured i take my time. I have cracking joints in the elbows and i don't like it too much.

Idk what challenge i could do to get some motivation. I kinda feel that i will get a tendinitis at some point anyway >.<
I will probably try something like 25 pull ups and 30 chin ups and 15Kg weigthed.


Just tried with 5Kg it is quite harder, must be a complete nightmare with 35Kg lol :p

Weighed pullups you can use many different implements... weight belt, backpack with weights, weight vest, etc.

Or you can train it with assisted positives or one arm negatives.

Tendonitis is an issue if you don't do mobility work and/or soft tissue and do too much volume for the most part. But it can be remedied

Hopefully now you can see why I was very skeptical of your claim initially lol
I'd say work on weighted chin-ups for sets of 5 so you can keep the volume low while making good strength gains.

Just broke my PR in the 3200m :D 11:59. Is the 3200m a Texas thing? There's no one else in the catagory for it. Or American I suppose because no one else has a reason to run a 2 mile race?

Generally, the 3200 is for high school dudes and it switches to 3000 from college to pro levels.

Guess I'll add some of my stuff here, mostly running, working on the lifting

400m 52.3
800m 2:04
5000m 18:57
8000m 30:52

Probably 68kg bw give or take for all of those.

I know, I think I'm going to try some of the bodyweight ones tonight, I'm getting excited :D

Edit: So just went for the 100 pushup timed while at work hehe. I couldn't get past 94 without there being a legitmate break. (2:03 when I quit though)

I guess add me for 94 pushup reps
