Hey everyone,
I could use some advice on my workout routine. I've been following a bodyweight fitness program since the start of the year and made good progress on pull-ups, going from 0 to 5 reps in a few months (I'm a 42-year-old male). Recently I tried increasing the volume to 6 sets which helped, but it was impacting the rest of my routine.
When I went back to 3 sets, my pull-up performance declined. I'm wondering if I should focus more on rows for a while to build overall back strength. I've heard incline rows can help with pull-ups - is that true?
My workouts are already pretty long at about 75 minutes. How can I modify things to keep improving my pull-ups without adding too much time? Should I prioritize rows over pull-ups for now?
My ultimate goal is to get really good at pull-ups. Any suggestions on how to structure my routine would be appreciated!
Thanks!
