If you're serious about improving your upper body strength, follow this six week program and you'll soon be on the way to 20 consecutive chin-ups.

Chin-ups are a great exercise - using your own body weight against you! As such most people will struggle to do 2 chin-ups. If you follow our program we are positive that after the 6 weeks, you will be able to do twenty chin-ups.

Please Note: If you can easily do chinups then pull ups can be done with the program instead.

Excellent App
Pherball66

This program, as well as the other 2 they have are great apps. It's like having a personal trainer pushing you as you are working out. You do the initial test to see how many you can do and then it tells you how many to do, then you push the button when done and it gives you a rest period and does the next set. The simplicity of it what makes it excel above all the others I have bought. I hope you guys keep the apps coming and maybe come out with some for weight lifting like, Curls, Leg lifts etc. This is exactly what I was looking for, again. Good job.


Great app!

This is a easy and convenient way to improve your chins. I would like to see updates similar to the ones for 100 pushups & 200 situps. The ability to change the completed reps & chart workouts would be great.


Great

Good motivation


weak

the good form chin up definintion needs to be corrected. pull-ups have palms facing out and chin-ups have palms facing the body. the graphic showing a chin-up is also weak and confusing. I entered 14 in inital test value and it starts me out doing 2 chin-ups and then 2 more after resting a minute. I then entered 20 for the inital test and it doen't change the work regimen. not really a program at all.


Good App to Work With, But

You might want to change the 'graph' function for 20 Chinups to read 'Total Chinups Over Time' instead of 'Total Squats Over Time'


Needs Instructions

Not sure whether last set is max or not. The app doesn't do much so instructions shouln't be hard write.


Save your money

Program is crap. It gives you the same program regardless of how many you can initially do. If I can already do 12 why would my first day have me do no more than 2 reps per set.


Needs work.

Hey guys. I think you phoned this one in. You're defenition of a good form chin up vs. pull up is confusing both say palms out. I could draw a better picture of a guy doing a chin up with a pen in my teeth. No updates for weeks. Please at least bring it up to par with your other programs.


Broken

Can't press the enter button when I do the initial test number in configuration.


This App could be really good

With a few changes, this App could really be great. Like others have mentioned, instruction are confusing. Also, I was not warned at the beginning of week 5 that I would be taking a max, and it messed up my workout. Also, as others have said, you start out at the same level, regardless of how many reps you do during the initial test, so i started the program on week 3. I have one more week to go on the program and I can do 14 reps max. I did 12 on the initial test. Not sure I'll make it. There needs to be a customized 6 week program for different levels to get everyone to 20 reps.
