good job!

however for the comp, you had just a little too much resting hang time on that first attempt at the bottom of the reps. As per the rule.

* No resting at the bottom of the rep,

Your first 2 reps are right in that first video set for form, are what you are after. All the way to the bottom/straight arm stretch. then straight back up ,no hang time.

Resting is way harder, if you want proof, make everyone rest for a count of five at the bottom, see how they go then

From experience it's actually easier to rest in a hang between reps.

As macdog appreciates from his recent experience, a little rest is helpful , There is an opportunity for relaxation of some of the key back muscles at the bottom of the rep.

I can hang for quite some time, almost to the point where I can rest between sets. The muscle fatigue is different, it is mostly your grip and arms. This is a back movement chiefly the way it prescribed.

Agreed, it's like bouncing deadlifts when doing them for reps. You use the elasticity that is stored in the muscle when you don't pause, whereas with the pause you have to generate all the force.

No. You will find done right you are lowering just past the point where the dynamic tension affords much advantage. This 'bouncing' is also noted as 'not allowed' in the rules.

I have no problem if someone believes the rules makes the pullup 'easier'. This belief alone might help you do more.

However, as the rule stands. Pauses are out. If you don't need to pause , don't do it. Then we can count the effort.

+1

If the rule benefits you, then why complain about it??? It's not that hard to stick to it. Get some more vids up people...the weekend is over now!

    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
    • Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
    • Hi All, putting the engine back together and everything is perfect except have this plug left over.. any ideas what it is for and where it goes? Is on cold side under the intake plenum *note not a stock plug, as everything has been modified Cheers
    • Sounds like a misfire. Check fuel pressure and don't even think about going into boost while it's like this unless you enjoy engine rebuilds.
