Why do I not seem to be improving on bar exercises?

We’re talking about pull ups? What is your weight?

@livelaughlove21 At moment 175lb give or take. Also recommend watching some videos for reference as to what I am aiming for.

Hmm…out of my element. Sorry!

It’s hard to say without watching you train. Some things to check though:

- Are you finishing off each muscle group after the main exercise? After you’re spent on pull-ups, do some seated pull-downs at 80% of your bodyweight, to spend the last remnants of energy in the same muscle groups. Do this to failure.
– Are you doing the full range of motion for each exercise? If you’re not doing pull-ups from a full hang, you won’t improve or gain size as effectively.
– Are you eating well? Remember you need fuel before AND after your workout.
– Are you still enthusiastic about your workout? Get yourself in a high intensity mental zone next time you go, and see if your performance improves.

If you ever have questions about working out, sports or exercise, it is really good to ask them on this webiste – community.ispo.com – You get really good answers and practical help.. You can also help others with your knowledge ;)
