In a nutshell:



Pull-Ups = when your palms are pronated (overhand grip), facing away from you.



Chin-Ups = when your palms are supinated (underhand grip), facing towards you

I can’t even do one rep lol

To some people chin up is easier.

But i trained alot pull ups.

...i am fat now. But still can do 6/ 10 times.

Maybe 30 per session. Or maybe less. See form.

Fcuk.. i m fat.

what is your bmi?

My pt taught me last time .. if u cant pull urself up. Just start slowly.

Grip and dont let go.. hang .

Then slowly put a chair . And train slowly. Or ask support.

U need build slowly. No fast way. But after u got foundation. U will never lose it.or easy to regain.

When i first learn i was 70kg.

Now i m 85kg.. chubby. But still can.

If all you want is a nice big back, there's no need to do pull ups.

Your traps don't attach to your humerus at all. It attaches to your clavicle and scapula and mainly performs scapular movements.

Your lats insert on the humerus but to efficiently contract them to their origin at the base of your spine you need to work each side independently.

I think 29. Or so. Very fat la me. Macam doraemon d.

During MCO, my max rep was 20 without stopping

why need a chair??
very high?

If u cant pull urself up. The chair is for ur landing and to cheat push.

The reason why i think i like pull up bcoz it engage my shoulder more..while chin up builds triceps more.

Broader shoulder = v ... but it hides ur tummy. Not so obvious too.

Coz u broad shoulder with big tummy.. can lie ma. Haha..at least can fill shirt.

Watching Arrow made me do both
Don’t think i can do the salmon ladder though

how tall are you?

I got no issues with the lower back stuff, but honestly anything where you're holding weight in front of you and bending over will work the erector spinae.

By the way, the colour highlights are completely off.

This is what the erector spinae look like



They peek out at the bottom of your back but the whole muscle runs the length of your spine. It keeps your back from rounding and collapsing forward.

The part on the outer edges of the 'lower back' are your lats.



They originate at the base of your spine and run the length of either side of your back.

The rest of the exercises listed are ok, but far from ideal to train these muscles efficiently bro.

170cm. / 85kg.

Bmi abt 29 ish.

frankly speaking 85kg for 170cm is fat lol. due to mco?

Long time loh. Since married. Got baby. Become daddy.

Ya i am aware i fat d. Infact my wardrobe changes every 6 months.

Aihz.. fuck . My pants at january buy. Now cant wear d.

Yes .. food and no exercise.

Only exercise i had was sex... but macam not helpful.

Could resort to keto diet soon.

That sounds dangerous bro. Anyway at least you're aware of it and plan to do something about it... so good luck and all the best.

Then salmon ladder is for what?

why is this not a genting thread?
