Jet, what do you use for aminos? I am in love with Scivation's XTend.

To be honest I don't really keep up with that stuff but I take ON bcaa and glutamine in a preworkout drink and then mix them with my PO shake because that's what a friend recommended I do. I don't entirely trust the supplements market but I've found this combination has helped me work out harder. Do you have a link? I really hate the taste of bcaa powder.

33083 + 150 = 33233

New record for palms facing grip for me on the first set, got to 30 and decided to keep going since I felt good tonight and did 58 on the first set.

33233 + 107 = 33340

Isn't palms facing in a chin-up? I can do significantly more of those than I can with palms out, since you are using so much more of your arms and chest. Never went to 50, but have gone to 30 easily, and there is no way I can do 30 pullups. How wide are you guys doing your grips? Mine are not the widest, but they are significantly wider than shoulder.

I do underhand too some nights does that not count? When I do wide lat grip it's as wide as possible those days its only 100-110. I do do a one set max of those if you want? Pull-up is a pull-up I do many variations.

My understanding is palms in = chin up, palms out = pull up, which is easier depends on the strength of your biceps relative to your back and forearms, but for most people chins will be a fair bit easier.

Anyway I wasn't aware of this thread so you guys have missed out on a couple k, but will contribute when I remember.

As OP, I vote that chin-ups count. Mainly because we're nowhere near our goal. biggrin.gif

33340 + 15 measly pull-ups = 33355

Still coming off a back injury and can't do much yet

33355 + 125 (felt pretty good today, and tomorrow is a rest day) = 33480
