I've done some assisted one arm chin-ups but I don't think I could ever do those.

Yes I lift.

I never really considered it before but I am going to train for it. I can do 25 pull-ups consecutively and almost 10 with a 45. I can't make any upward movement with one arm. Honestly hard to imagine it even being possible. Time to Cell Tech?

With all due respect the guy doing them is all upper body + core strength. If you got them beefy legs its going to be harder

Agreed and he's not a big guy (which I'm sure makes it easier.)

OP if you're doing that much already you could train for it.

Good luck!

Bunch of half reps. Also used to do 2-3 reps with chin over the bar, but with index finger support from the other hand.

But at one point I partially tore some forearm tendon while doing negatives.

I will try tomorrow and check back in, I’m intrigued. At 320 ish it’s unlikely but I’ll give it hell.

I'm pretty good at pull ups, but I have no interest in doing that. You'd have to be a total twink for it to be possible and I'm trying to bulk mayne

Also biceps and bicep tendons get injured really easily so fuk that

I used to be about to do one arm chinups but I haven't tried in a long time.

I have been increasing my pullups again over the last year and will have to give it a try in a few months.

All the pullup bars at my gym as easily over seven feet off the ground of more and it's tough to get stability.

The fact you have the audacity to talk about any lifting related feats at all just lends to the notion you are a legitimate nutcase.
