About a month ago, I became a first time dad so I decided to go all in on bodyweight fitness and calisthenics at home. I have been going to the gym for about 3 years, but i'm a little fat right now because I have NOT been watching my food intake for the past year.
I've been doing a combination of RR and my own schedule so far, but each training day consists at least of pull-ups, chin-ups, dips & push-ups. At home I have a dumbbell up to 20kg, dip bars, resistance bands and a pull-up/dipstation.
I'm not really sure how to progress to full unassisted pull-ups (and chin-ups).
I can do about:
- 3x5-6 australian rows
- 3x5-6 resistance band assisted pull-ups (with 35kg resistance band)
- 3x4 resistance band assisted pull-ups (with 15kg resistance band)
- 3x1-2 unassisted pull-ups
What would you recommend? More reps with the stronger resistance band or less reps with less assist? I'm debating on doing australians or negatives as well, but I definitely want to keep the full exercise in one way or another.
TLDR: what would be better to progress my pull-ups? More reps with more help from resistance bands, fewer reps with less help from resistance bands or even fewer reps without any assist?
