Re: Winter is coming (indoor conditioning question)
Any ideas for indoor at home HIC training that doesn't include burpees? (burpees and high volume body weight / goblet squats have been aggravating my lower back lately) I have heavy kettlebell available. Try skipping. You can do Fobbits or Meat-Eater. Ramp up the intensity with the jump rope if you...

Re: Pull up progression for the weak one?
I am currently doing the fighter pullup program as part of my base building cycle. One recommendation is to start it below your max to be able to progress. I am good for 15 strict reps so I went with a 10 rep max. With your pullups being lower you may struggle, but you can do negatives. As mentione...

Re: Pull up progression for the weak one?
Do you do some kind of warmup before? I do some jumping chin up and a couple of singles before starting with more reps. I usually just go straight to chin ups. I have done inverted rows sometimes but often forget / don't have time :oops: Definitely going to start warming up better for now on. Not s...

Re: Pull up progression for the weak one?
Thanks. Luckily I have pull up bar at home.
Fighter pull up program sounds fun. I'm going to start with 3RM program and practice form at the same time. Or switch to chin ups because those I can do at least 5 for sure.

Pull up progression for the weak one?
So I had my max test today and was only able to do 4 pull ups. I'm going to do operator+black with squat,bench,WPU, DL once a week. How should I progress with pull ups?
My gym has that assisted pull up machine and rubber bands, but I was kind of hoping there would be other options?
