convince me not to do pullups instead of rows
>>36934019
I'd say you're doing it wrong if you're not doing both.
do both, you fucking fag
>>36934019
Pullups have a longer range of motion and more upperbody involvement.
its assistance work, do both
>>36934027
>>36934047
i dislike rows
>>36934069
isn't that an argument for pullups?
>>36934087
Quite obviously, yes.
>>36934113
that argument neglects that rows work lower back and explosiveness, and makes you better at pulling without requiring a lot to technique (like a powerclean)

*also, can be done one hand at a time (bumbbells) so you don't run out of breath which for some people is a problem with high-repetition pullups
>>36934164
rows are not comparable to a power clean
>>36934200
ok im just going back to /owg/ and staying there
>>36934212
you've never seen Rip rowing
>>36934019
They are completely different planes of movement. It is important to do both. If you only did pull-ups it'd be like just doing OHP and not doing bench for your chest. It's the inbetween movements that are skippable, like incline and decline.
Why would you make threads like this?
I get it, it's difficult to get a straight answer from 4chan by simply asking, but this is one of those rare exceptions where you could have used google and received the same answer much more rapidly and from actually reputable sources instead of anonymous users whose fitness level you have no way of knowing.
Did you really need to 'bait' people into answering? Couldn't you have just googled what you needed?
We live in an age where every person on the planet had instant access to the collective cluster of all knowledge ever ammazzed by the entire human race in thousands of years, and yet there's people like you who turn their head away from the well of knowledge because they feel 'safer' getting their water from the familiar well.

came here to say exactly this.

Trappy I want to stick my shaft in your stink hole.

Not sure if you're being entirely serious, but
>rows work lower back
Which is something you shouldn't worry about if you're deadlifting and squatting.
>explosiveness
Any strength lift will make you more explosive. Squats being able to increase your vertical jump on their own is a good example of that.
However, there's a big difference in explosiveness requirement between slow lifts (like rows or squats) and fast lifts (like the clean).
Even a Pendlay Row can be done slowly or grinded through.
A clean cannot. You either produce enough acceleration at the specific brief moments, or you fail the lift.

Training leads to adaptation.

>t. DYEL
the sheer tonnage of a set of 20 chinups is a lot, enough to wind anyone at any level, on any exercise with comparable ROM
>inb4 meme chart implying there are no gains over 12 reps
>>36934270
>pendlay
>grinded
no
>>36934019
No, get that wingspan faggot
>>36934069
Trappy do chin ups still work the rear Delts?
>>36934164
>implying fucking up your lower back with rows is a good thing
>>36935913
Yes, it's explained in the picture. In act, chinups and closegrip pullups work them more than widegrip pullups.
Rows are r/fitness
Weighted pullups are /fit/
>>36934019
Do chin ups instead.
>>36935955
>Fucking up your back with rows
Is such autism even possible?
horizontal pulls are only good if pulled high imo. otherwise it's just
>shit scap retraction
>half the shoulder extension ROM
do weighted chins/pullups for your lats
do a horizontal pull higher up the chest for traps/rhomboids/rear delts etc
>>36934549
Eh, if you're doing it at like a weight were you can do an 8+ rep range maybe. But at a weight you can do 4-6 reps or lower max? Fuck no
