Don’t go to Failure.This is the biggest mistake you can make with pull ups. As soon as a single rep does not look exactly like the previous one and you can’t get as high, the set is over. If your speed slows down noticeably the set is over. That’s exactly how people finish their sets of pull ups. The form gets worse and worse and worse, and they keep going and going and going, climbing up the invisible ladder, swinging and skipping. When you do this you get no stronger. And most of the time you get weaker, the negative effect of training to failure is seen more on chin ups than any other exercise, If you are carrying excess body fat your ability to do pull ups will be greatly reduced, extra body fat is good for lifting more weight in certain exercises that require greater leverage like the squat and deadlift. But that’s all it’s good for, other than that it’s unhealthy and unsightly.
