Ok so ive been training now about a month in a half. Ive seen really good improvement in my strenght. But i still have a problem.
For some reason i cant do pull ups/chin ups. Not even 1 and im not sure why. Is their some type of excercise i can do that would make me able to eventually do chin ups? And what muscle is it on my body thats to weak that doesnt let me do them.
I mean im Benching 145 Pounds now. And 1 arm curling 60-70 pounds. so its not that im extreamly weak or something
I went from not being able to do 1 to now being able to do 15 wide grip in a row, and I weigh 195. Just keep working on your back -- heavy rows, heavy deads, pulldowns, etc. It will come around.
I'd check your form on those 1-arm curls, because I can guarantee you cannot curl 60 pounds with one arm if you can't do a pullup and you're only benching 145.

wow I am glad i read that again. I was reading that as "I am curling 60-70lbs) I was thinking why are you all saying he cant do that, maybe he is talking about barbell curls.

You can work on your lat pulldowns. When your doing them keep your form as if you were pulling yourself up instead of pulling the bar down, like try keeping your back close to straight up and down instead of leaning far back.

My Mistake your right, i checked better at the gym tonight and its 30 pounds not kg, pretty stupid cause the whole gym runs on KG and the free weights are in pounds. Sorry about that
