pullups everyday - Tuesday, July 21, 2009 12:13 PM ( #1 )
Ive heard of people who do pullups everyday.  Atm I do 50 on 3 days a week, takes me about 5 minutes.  I usually do horizontal rows before though and it tires me out for them.  Do you guys think I could get away with doing 50 every day at a separate time from my workout or would I fry my back.  Maybe 25 a day?  I know its a bodyweight exercise but it just seems like its gonna be too much after a while.

Or maybe one straight set everyday and just try to crank out more and more. <actually I just thought of this while I was posting this and it seems like a really cool idea.

You'd probably fry your arms before your back.

I think you'll be fine though.

I think MVP told me you can do BW pull-ups or chins everyday if you want to. Guess all you can do is just give it a go and see if it affects your lifts.
