Pull up trouble

[sufcboy95]

Is it realistic for me to go from struggling to do one pull up to being able to do 8 in a year?

Once you performed one pull up , you will reach your 8 pull ups in max 2 months, i promise

Must have gained some day and lost some muscle. Do lat pulldowns and back workouts and keep trying weekly. Once you get one your golden.

Pull up numbers can increase super fast. So yes you can get to 8 pull ups in much less than a year.

I did weighted hammer grip pull ups and can now do about 15 wide grip pull ups at almost 200 where I could hardly do one at 180. Might want to try that.

keep at it and you will let's hope you don't go backwards

Of course!
It won't take you long. When I first started going to the gym about 5 months ago, I couldn't do a single pull-up! Now, I'm able to do 7-8 each set.
To start, just go for 1-3 repititions but attempt full range of motion and slow movement as it will give you strong formation and you won't be sloppy and will improve greatly over a short period of time! Just keep at it
