ladder

[DanBor]

Hello,
I have a question about ladder structure of the training.

Does anyone of the Members here have any experience with it?

I've been using it for about a month now, trying to improve my pullups (20 dead hang reps). So far I can perform 7. (Those are not regular pullups on the bar BTW - instead I wrap towel arround - those are killers).

Anyway, I do 1 rep, then let go for a couple of seconds, then 1,2 (pause couple of seconds), 1,2,3,... So far I have come to 1,2,3,4,5. Then I rest for 2-3 minutes and repeat from begining. I do 4 or 5 of such sets.

So what do you think? Should I make longer or even shorter stops between reps.

Thanks.

The correct time between reps is the same amount of time as it took to do the last amount of reps.

If using a training partner this is easy:-You do one rep,they do one rep.You do two reps,they do two reps.Etc,etc.

If you have no training partner just visualize and do a slow count for the same amount of reps you've just done.

Yeah, I thought it is something like that.

I don't have a training partner so I have to visualize it.

Thanks Dragon.
