Today I begin the journey to achieving 100 pull-ups straight without rest. I currently can squeeze out about 10-15 pull ups without rest, but tend to tire out about 8-9 repetitions into performing the pull ups.
Form:
1) Zero momentum, so that means no kipping up or using my body to thrust myself into position. I'll leave that type of form to the hardcore crossfit enthusiasts.
2) My legs dangle directly below me at all times
3) I start with my arms completely extended over my head and my shoulder blades pinched back
4) I stop when I have pulled myself up where my chin is above the pulling surface
5) I exhale with every pull and inhale as I release the pull toward the ground
Every day I will be performing a movement that compliments my goal of increasing my strength endurance in pull ups. So, I'll vary grip, pace, number of repetitions and intensity. Other movements that are modifications or assist in gaining ground on my way to 100 pull ups will be implemented. Stay tuned!
