my new weight for pull ups is 13.75kg / 30lbs.
I have worked up to this in the smallest increments I have here, which is these little 1.25kg / 2.5lbs plates. Rep by rep, slowly adding a tiny amount of weight only when I can clock up 3 sets of 10.
Today with 13.75kg I hit 10, 9, 9.
Maybe in a few weeks I can add another 1.25kg, and do 15kg pull ups...
I hope everyone else is making progress with their pull up training too!

Can you guess what exercise/movement this is?

My current body composition, before lunch. Some how I have dropped about 2kg recently, and think I know what happened.
For the last 20+ years (since my first body composition test at 19 years old at my university gym) the scales show a body fat range between 11-14% .
I think this is ideal for me.
It's just an extra 2kg, but it's so much harder. I don't know if I'll be able to hit 100 in a row with 2kg. Definitely not like this. I will need to get a lot stronger, or lighter, or both.
Any tips VERY welcome.
none of my fitness training was a response to the C19 lockdowns / restrictions. During the Covid19 period I was doing martial arts training exclusively, to get ready to meet my American friends in STREETBEEFS OFFICIAL.
It was only after that fight, because of 1 little injury, that I began high rep body weight training. The injury was a busted big toe, which yes, is very small, but it prohibited me from all jogging, running, fast linear and lateral movements (for sparring and kicking drills), and all pivoting (round kick, side kick) and impact for front kick. It's even uncomfortable to punch with a busted big toe.
While waiting months and months for it to heal (and sometimes re-heal from re-injuring it whenever I would test recovery progress), I began the body weight training that I've shared here for about 2 years.
So it wasn't for Covid 19 or lockdowns or anything like that. This current phase of high rep body weight training began as a solution to a busted big toe, and since then I've enjoyed the simplicity, difficulty, progress and athletic results. The experience has been so good that I think most of my training will remain like this until the end.
