Doing chin-ups every workout in WWB1
Like the title says would this be a good idea since I want to have lats + break a record in my school. 1-2 sets of chin-ups and as much as I can for reps for each workout day. What do u think, is this a bad idea?

Yes. Overtraining doesn't help. Working any muscle daily is overtraining. IMO more then twice a week is too much.

If you're trying to develop pullups endurance, than 3-4 abbreviated sessions a week are a good idea. Vary the training parameters:
Day 1: with added weight, for strength
2: rest day
3: high reps, a few sets (possibly with small assistance, or kipping) for power
4: rest
5: hit a high fixed number, like 100 in one session, as many sets as necessary, for endurance
6: rest
7: moderate #, like 10 sets of 5
Vary grips as well.

Pretty sure this doesn't apply to chins lol.

Read about Pavels "Greese the Groove" concept. It works. Long story short, yes, you can do chins everyday. Keep the reps well short of failure, increase by one rep each week. There's also something about this on Clarence Bass' website. Google it.
Going to failure on each set is a bad idea imo.Last edited by Rex; 12-19-2005 at 12:55 PM.

Thanks for everyone who replied I would go with about half what the people had to say "2x a week", but I would sometime try MixMasterNash's advice as well.
