How do I increase my pullup reps?
I can very quickly increase reps of situps, pushups, chinups, with no difficulty at all.
But I'm trying to get to comfortably doing 12-15 STRICT FORM pullups, and I'm having trouble increasing my numbers.
After 3 weeks, starting with maybe 2 STRICT pullups, I'm now at 5. but I can't get past there. my form falls apart and i end up using momentum and not fully locking out my arms at the bottom. Meanwhile, in the same time I've more than doubled my max reps in situps and pushups and chinups.
What gives /fit/? what are some techniques I can use to advance in pullups?
So thats where little rasins come from

no idea what yr talking about friendo
god damn it bump
21. Do 21 pullups every workout. Whether that takes you 1 set, or 21 sets. Once you can get up to 10 or so, increase that number.

I slowly added weight to my pull-ups, still did 10 but increased weight. Now without weight can do 20 easy
Do the thing where you do 1 pull up on day 1, 2 on day 2, 3 on day 3 etc for a month. All have to be in one set. If you fail a day you start again

all sound like good options.
How much weight were you adding? like 1kg increase each few days?
Do 1-2 reps about 20-25 times per day. Never even get close to failure. When you walk past a door frame, do a pull up. Past a scaffold, do a pull up.
Increase to 2-3 when you feel as though you are ready (you'll know because the speed at which you can do one will have skyrocketed). Before you know it you'll be as 12-15 easy dead hang pull ups. Continue this way and add another rep to the day's total every day and you'll be up at 20 in half a year, tops.

How autistic do you have to be to add weight in 1kg steps?
Its either 5kg or 10kg steps.

Days?
Try to pull up your own bodyweight before you even think about adding weights.

I can already do 5-6 solid dead hang pullups, so i figured the next step you meant would be to add weight and bring myself back to that level. I can do pullups, I just want to do more.

You learn to do more pull ups, by doing more pull ups.
