Based on the Building Pullup Strength instagram post from Learn Calithetics, do the following, resting as needed

  • 20 x Strict Pullups
  • 20 x Strict Narrow Grip Pullups
  • 20 x Strict Pronated Grip Pullups (chin ups)
  • 20 x Strict Wide Grip Pullups
  • 20 x Commando Pullups (10 with right hand forward/10 with left)

Then 3 rounds of (total of 9 sets), rest as needed between rounds…

  • 2 x TRX Pike Press
  • 4 x TRX Knee Tucks
  • 6 x TRX Mountain Climbers (L+R=1 rep)
  • Repeat for 3 sets

Results: I broke pullups into sets of 5, resting 60 to 90 seconds between each. Towards the end I even split the sets of 5 into 2s and 1s with minimal rest between the small sets. Took around 30 minutes for all 100 pullups. Pure volume.
