First off, when I’m talking about getting a max on pull-ups, I mean solid pull-ups with good form and no swinging or kipping at all. I haven’t tried to max out on pull-ups for quite some time. The last time I gave it a go, I was struggling with number 8 when I came down off the bar. That was a couple months ago. So today i decided to give it a shot again. I was absolutely amazed at the outcome! On my first set, I didn’t even feel a slow-down until 13 and held perfect form through #16. I was able to get that same 16 reps three times in a row! Then a couple hours later, I decided to hop up for another set and there it was – 18 pull-ups. I did 18 freaking straight-bodied, calm form, no kip, no swing, no kick pull-ups – are you F-ing kidding me?!?!? This is coming from a guy who has ALWAYS had a problem rocking good pull-ups; they’ve been my weak spot for my entire life and now I’m killin’ em’…
