  • I went from 0 in Sep to maybe 10 good ones and a load of cheat ones now. Chin-ups for cyclists suck - massive legs, proportionally weak upper body. I do have large forearms though - perfectly apt for the massive wanker I am.

  • "grip strength" :p

    For women chinups tend to be hard, less upper body mass, more weight in legs and I'm built like a cyclist too. Lots of heavy rows and lats work do help.

  • I've just been doing standard stuff. I don't care if I can't do 4000 chinups in 24hrs. I'm a bike racer that likes doing gym work in the off season. When I stop racing I'll get massive and win Worlds Strongest Man (Pensioner Edition).

  • It's a naff name, but 'grease the groove' is worth a try, just jump up and do a set every time you pass the bar.
