been working up to heviest chin i can possibly do for 3yrs now. 1 day a week i do my chinup training ( muscles need 5 to 6 days to repair from low rep training )

 

theres a big difference between looking strong and being strong. and i can tell you it does help climbing.

Surely thats hitting back n biceps only. Why not train the rest of the body in the other six days ?

so what else does the chin up training involve apart from trying to bust out a couple of high resistance low reps...?

 

IME this sort of exercise increases power more than strength. although becoming stronger is obviously helpfull.

my strength feats so far .

 

Can hold 20kilo plate in each arm sideways at arms length for 10 secs.

 

Managed to dip my bodyweight + 120lbs.

 

1 arm overgrip chin.

 

dragon flags.

 

1 arm shoulder press with 20k barbell with 2 x 15 kilo plates on ( 50k ) for reps.

 

1 arm finger pushups.

 

pistols ( 1 leg squats ) with 25 k plate.

 

close captain crush gripper number 2 ( 165lbs ) of pressure.

 

getting strong is easy ig you know how and you don't overtrain your

CNS ( CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM )

 

Doing high reps gives you endurance ( which you need ) doing the usuall 8 - 12 reps just bulks you up!

 

I do 1 to 5 reps max for 5 sets with 3 To 5 mins rest between sets and 3 to 5days off between sessions. works real well
