I do both. I do pull ups on Tuesday and chin ups on Friday

I will lower the weight for tomorrow so I can do the reps more proper but the video is still misleading. The pull up grips are lower than the silver bar so it looks like I am not going high enough. But I did a video where I had no weight and pulled myself all the way up just so I had a point of reference for my videos so I knew if I was going high enough, and it still looked like I was not going high enough. It's the low angle and the pull up grips being a few inches lower than the silver bar.

I thought you got plenty high enough. I wasn't really critizing that or the lift in general. You are plenty strong enough to do weighted pullups with plenty of weight. But honestly from the swaying it seems your ligaments and stabalizers are not ready for that particular weight yet. Just dont want to see you get hurt.

as far as your S&C program. Not sure how anybody can critize considering where you played and what yall accomplished during that time frame. Besides playing WR is much more about being able to control your body through space than overall strength and hopefully that was the focus of your position groups program.

But in the end who cares, apparently yall were doing somehting right.

Got it, I will post a video tomorrow. I'll drop 20-25 pounds and see how it goes.

What I usually do is 3 sets. That day I did 6 reps with 50 pounds, 7 reps with 30 pounds and 8 reps with 10 pounds. So the video was my first set which was my top set.

We did power cleans instead of dead lifts. As far as chins go we did them but not with weight. And most of our lifting was on our own. Our coaches gave us a print out sheet and we just followed it. The only time we did "command" style lifting when coaches were there telling us what to do and watching us was for a 2 month stretch in the winter offseason. After spring, in the summer and during the season it was on our own.
