Tip 1: Five sets is not the maximum.
Let's say if you do 20 pull-ups, then you should do 5 sets of 15 reps.
Rest time between sets is 2 minutes.
Try not to do it quickly and not to fully extend your elbows, so as not to injure your elbow joints. ( it is important)
Tip 2: Horizontal bar at home.
Make a horizontal bar at home, every time you pass by it, pull yourself up 20 times.
Rest time can be from 30 minutes to 2-3 hours. This technique will help your muscles not get tired and recover quickly.
You can do an unlimited number of times in one day, the main thing is to rest a lot after you have done one approach of 20 times.
Tip 3: The last approach is like the last.
When you do the maximum, try to do the last pull-up like the last time, try to do not 20 times, but 21. Even if you cannot do a full pull-up, do it halfway. This is how you will rebuild your body and move forward.
Tip 4: Fitness elastic bands.
If you are just a beginner, then special fitness bands for the horizontal bar will suit you.
It’s not difficult to find, they are sold in every sports store. These rubber bands come in different degrees of difficulty, I recommend the red one (medium difficulty),
Tip 5: Hanging on the horizontal bar.
Very often, especially young and novice athletes who are just starting to exercise on the horizontal bar, slip off the horizontal bar.
Train hanging on the horizontal bar; the longer you hang on the horizontal bar, the more times you can do pull-ups.
You can hang and rest, thereby doing 5-10 repetitions that you would not be able to do without some preparation with hanging on the horizontal bar.
I also recommend using extenders to increase your grip and make it harder to hang.
