Anyone do weighted pull-ups/chinups?

Love doing these, I weigh about 240 but can handle decent weight on these, nowhere near my prime though.

Even 5-10lbs on this lift feels like a fuking mountain of difference

Mogging bro!! Most miscers couldn't handle half of that! Despite the fact the majority are sub 200lb twinks.

Yeah i really enjoy them, do lots of bodyweight ones too.

About 2 years back when i was sitting around 90kg i was able to hit 35k added weight for about 6 reps.

I've slacked a bit lately and i also weigh around 98kg, but i'm still able to do 25kg x 5-6, although i want to get back to where i was. Considering i'm tall (6'4) with long arms, im pretty happy with what i was able to do, but it'd be cool to rep 2 plates. Never tried 1 rep maxes on pulls or anything though, always hit a minimum of like 5 reps.

Mirin video OP srs.

Gets brutal after 20kgs.

Agreed. People WTF when they see it. Blows up your back and is great for core/grip strength.

Solid work at 240 bro. I hover between 240-250 at 6'5".

I always pull my heaviest weight first set and drop after. Used to do 2x45 lbs plates for 4-5 for my heavy sets. Those days are long over. Now I do 24kg (52lbs) kettlebell for 10-12 (chinup) then 6-8 (pullup) super set. Drop to 45lbs plate after that for same or sometimes a few more reps. Then 35lb plate, then 25lbs plate, then bodyweight only.

Edit: on spread with you OP.
6'5, 240lbs.

245lbs BW +115lbs added

I can get 90lbs on a very good day now, so I’m still pretty far off. Let’s say 40lbs off, which is huge.

20 second dead hang to inhibit stretch reflex

Full range of motion to top

No kipping

10 second pause at top


I would like to know where exactly my form was “very bad”, I mean sure it’s not perfect but I’m not in a competition I am just lifting for fun if I manage to cobble together enough energy and motivation to do it

I’m not fat lol

I train for aesthetics not strength, i’m the numero uno sexiest bodybuilder on misc srs


I was the best pull-uper on misc srs

Obviously it took a few months to get good, i could do one arm pulls unweighted like it was piss srs

But like i said i had chit tier no mass on my calfs that made a massive difference

Now i’m a complete well rounded natty bodybuilder, ive been there and done it, its all stored in my memories

Yes. In my gym, weighted chins are a pull day staple.
*Look at reflection in car window and flex every time crew*
*Use half the roll to wipe after a poo crew*
*Fart in the gym and blame rotten smell on faulty ventilation crew*
*Fart at home and blame it on the dog crew*
*Watch neutron-star density poop mock me as water flushes around it and it stays put crew*
*Drive 2 minutes in the summer and back of shirt gets completely wet crew*
*Coffee black as midnight on a moonless night crew*
*Fat shame my cat on a daily basis crew*

am up to about 25lbs on the ole weight chin up. def. one of my favorite movements.

actually did them this morning but where i usually do them some boomer who is creeping ppl out left his water bottle legit straight dead center under it & between the cables. you would think, ok, hes doing pullups but no, hed jump up to that, hang for 5 seconds, then go off & do 3 other movements but leave his water bottle sitting dead center. at one time i counted 4 other machines he'd bounce in between after walking away from his "hangs" & leaving his water bottle there. fukking weird asf.

like i said, dudes doing other chit that's creeping ppl out.
