Stephen,

For training or WR attempt? If I were attempting a WR I would take 13-10
reps per minute and rest for 40 seconds, so after about 15 minutes one would
have 180 reps. Pretty easy to do in practice, but once you go beyond 25-30
minutes, there were times I would do a set of 7 or 8 then rest 20 seconds and a
set of 3 or 4, until the end when you get real tired and the last ten minutes is
like two sets of 4. But who knows everyone is different, perhaps you can do 5
sets of 2 and it would be easier on the body. To be honest I have not tried
that because it seems like it would take more time letting go stepping away from
the bar and then starting again from a dead hang.

The guy who did 644 did 379 in the first 30 minutes, and I agree the first 30
minutes one should attempt to get ahead so to speak, but he only did 265 in the
last 30 minutes. A record attempt should be a little more even like 350 and
300.

I have just read he is attempting 700! in May-June. Now that would be
something. I don't know if I could top that, but honestly the record belongs at
732 or higher, as Jack Lalanne did 1000 in 82 minutes 45 years ago, before
records were kept and stricter standards applied.

Hi There Matt. Happy new year to you too..
Just a question..do you do your reps in sets of say 10 and then rest for 30
seconds to do your max test in an hour or what? I just wondered how that was
done.
I have been just goofing around with reps and found a way to do 10 per minute
and I am able to do that for about 15-20 min..I just started it recently and
wanted see how it can help add to ones rep max..
thanks
steve

Just want to wish everyone a Happy New year and a healthy one,
I hope you achieve all your fitness goals.

Looks like I better shoot for 650 next year. (chins and pull ups are
the same for their record purposes)

From: (remember in this alternative record, they make no distinction
between chins and pulls, so a guy who does 644 technically could have
been doing sets of both, in which case it would be easier) I like the
sticter rules and palms forward wide grip. As far as I know it was
Hylund who has a 610 count that is going through Guinness as we speak)
