hit this new PR of 15 pull ups a week or two ago but first time capturing on camera 💪 it's not uncommon for me to hit a pr and then for the next few times only be able to get like 75% of the reps, but i just keep doing them everyday and little by little it gets easier

I have no clue how people hit PRs so frequently 🤯 Fo me it happens once in several month 🥲 One thing I noticed is that you don’t use any straps to facilitate the grip. Not sure if it is intentionally but they can significantly help to focus on the right muscles during an exercise. It is true for most of pulls, heavy presses also benefit from better wrist stability (though it requires not straps but slightly different thing)

I personally prefer using this type of straps though there are various with own pros and cons
