Re: SmileyEH\'s Log
What do you mean by "TUT"?
The thing with pullups is that within the crossfit framework most people quickly get to the point of their max reps of either far beyond what one would do for strength/hypertrophy training. When I want to train upper body pulling strength I'll either do weighted pullups or L-pullups. Doing 3 sets of 12 deadhangs would be kind of pointless for me and my strength endurance is still nothing compared to the guys doing 50-60 kipping and 25+ deadhang. Also I wouldnt compare them to cheat curls. I think a better analogy is split jerks vs. shoulder press. Both exercises' limit strength is shoudlers, but split jerks incorporate more muscle groups, a skill element and most of all are done explosively. |

Re: SmileyEH\'s Log
Time under tension.
I like your comp better. And I agree. I do think it becomes pointless for guys who can do ~20+ dead hang pullups unless they have that goal. I think kipping presents the most benefits for people who reach failure in <10 dead hang. |

Start a stopwatch, 1 pullup in 1st minute, 2 in 2nd minute, 3 in 3rd etc. until failure made it to the 12th minute before part of my palm peeled off . Could have gone for a coulpe more rounds. Total pullups (kipping): ~70 [/ QUOTE ] Please explain this better, I am confused. |

Re: SmileyEH\'s Log
You just start a stop watch. You have until it hits 1:00 to do 1 pullup, then until 2:00 to do 2 more, then until 3:00 3 more etc. So in the 10th minute you have to do 10 pullups in that minute. I was able to finish the 12th minute's pullups so I did 12 + 11 + 10 etc = 78 total.

Re: SmileyEH\'s Log
ahh ok, so you just do 1 pullup for the 1st minute then rest the other 58 seconds until you start the 2nd set?

Smiley,
Is the Amherst gym open tomorrow and is it possible for me to walk in there without an ID? (Guessing not, but I haven't had a problem doing so at Smith/Hampshire/MHC) |
