Can you do pullups? If so how many?

[nuknuk]

Im going to see how many I can do next week. I wonder if I can even get 10, lol.

 

[Plang]

Depends on my weight...230-240 about 12 where I feel my back..210ish 15-20.

 

[cenzo78]

8-10 with a 45 hanging from my waist

 

[big in vegas]

I can get around 18-20 before I can't take anymore

 

[(N)shape]

depends on the grip I use. With a neutral grip I can do 3-4 sets of 15-20. With a wide grip focusing more on lats 3-4 sets of 12-15. doing a chin up (palms facing) it's close to neutral but my repaired bicep sometimes hurts on that one so i do more neutral and wide. I usually superset pullups with Bench and Military Press. I try to do 50 total reps each workout. Once I can do 3-4 sets of 20 easy I'll move on to weighted

 

[BiggerStronger]

Maybe 12-15.

 

[skinny1]

I do them at the end of my back day and use a really wide grip and I can usually do only 7 or 8. I just have a weak back.........:crap:

 

[dreww]

about 15

I swear to God this is the truth. When I was in the Army I could do 50 plus EASY. I did weigh 160 lbs at the time. Now at 225 I can do 15 or so.

 

[jtunderdog]

About 15 or so. The one positive I can tell you about p90x is that if you do it you will be able to do at least 20 pullups by the time you are done.

Last week I did 3 sets, 10-15-15. It took me 3 1/2 years to build up to body weight pullups. I will be 61 next month.
