Fighter Pullup

[renegadenate]

So I'll be doing the ladder Pullups 6 times in a week

I would go 4-5x/week. Go 4x/week for the first two weeks (let your elbows adjust), then increase to 5x/week. Beyond that, you might burn out. But you could always try it and see!

That's not much variation in volume. I would use the Delta 20 principle.

Your week would look more like this:

30
18
24

The wave is supposed to be intensity within the week. Day 1 is a bunch of doubles. Day 2 triples. Day 3 quads. Always starting with a max set of 6, then moving on. The delta 20 for volume is week to week. I like playing around with waving more than just volume.

Ahh! Okay, I didn't see that. Sounds good!

Just wanted to throw another option into the mix for anyone else reading and one i quite like the sound of.

I just read al kavadlos article on aiming for a rep goal say 25 over as many sets as it takes, when you get them increase the rep goal

If you're serious about building real upper-body strength, you owe it to yourself to work up to 20 strict, full-range-of-motion pull-ups. Here's the plan to get you there.
