Hi,

so I have been reading these great posts how method called Grease the Groove helped people to raise their max rep for Pull Ups in just few weeks. I was stuck on 11 max reps woth BW for some time so I wanted to try the method.

I tried to incomporate it with Weighted Pull Ups that I do twice a week - I do GtG Pull Ups on all days when I don’t do weighted PU. I do 5 sets of 5 reps (11 BW PUs is my Max) with at least 2 hour rest between sets.

This is what I did so far:

D1 - BW Max 11

D2-D4 - 5x5

D5 - weighted PU 6,5 kg vest 9, 8, 7, 6 reps

D6-D7 - 5x5

D8 - weighted PU 6,5 kg vest 9, 8, 7, 6 reps

D9-D11 - 5x5

D12 - weighted PU 6,5 kg vest 9, 8, 7, 6 reps

D13-D14 - 5x5

D15 - weighted PU 6,5 kg vest 9, 8, 7, 6 reps

D16-D18 - 5x5

D19 - weighted PU 6,5 kg vest 9, 8, 7, 6, 4 reps

D20-D21 - 5x5

D22 - weighted PU 6,5 kg vest 9, 8, 7, 7

D23 - rest from PU

D24 - BW Max 11

I read that after 3 weeks you should retest your max again and as you can see, it did not change.…
