Joe, Bodyweight exercises rule! Rob, I got that from my buddy Jon Hinds. I'm not sure where you can get one. Layout Hunter, That's a whole 'nother topic. I would still mix it up though with some heavy weighted chins some days and higher reps on other days. Brandon,

Joe,
Bodyweight exercises rule!

Rob,
I got that from my buddy Jon Hinds. I’m not sure where you can get one.

Layout Hunter,
That’s a whole ‘nother topic. I would still mix it up though with some heavy weighted chins some days and higher reps on other days.

Would using my gyms chin-assist machine be essentially the same thing/concept? Great post and thank you very much for writing it. I've been stuck at 10 chins for a long-ass time. - Deven Jay,

Chin-ups are awesome. I've started off with bands so I could work in the higher rep ranges 12-15 and now I've lost the bands and am working anywhere from 3-12 reps. Usually I'll do pull-ups first and hit 10-12 reps. Then I'll do inverted rows and hit 10-12 reps. Then rope chin-ups... by that time my arms are burning so I only hit about 3 reps. On other days I'll do wide-grip pull-ups, reverse grip inverted rows, and then neutral grip chin-ups. Same concept! As I continue to get stronger I'll add my weighted vest to the mix! Keep going strong! Brandon HardgainerMuscleBuilding.com/blog PS: By the way I hung the article you wrote with the Sun Tzu quote on my mirror to remind me daily to bust my ass. I'm doing a six-month transformation and documenting it on my blog... I want the accountability it brings and the pain it will bring me if I give up on my goal. Like you said "Be careful what you ask for because now you gotta earn it.... or look like a failure in the eyes of everyone you told." ... VERY TRUE! Great article Jason! Chin-ups are awesome.
