Resume training after shoulder impingement recovery. Say hello to pain.😅
Am also near 50 this year. Roughly once a week I do 100 pullups, 200 pushups, 300 bodywt squats in ~ 18min. (broken up)

Beyond a certain number of chinups (eg 20 in a row) I feel that returns are diminishing. Currentlt working towards weighted chinups at 75% of bw

Have to keep fit as we age. You have good training routine. Respect!☺️

Yes I agree. > 20 reps per set doesn't benefits much. High reps increase the risk of injuries to the joints instead.

When I can hit 20 reps 5 sets of pull up, will move on to harder skills. Probably by end of 2026.

You and @XcoVar are amazing.

I can only do one pull up , hence I just try to finish 3 sets of 20 push up, together with other exercises on most days

This is my own setting for pull up exercises 😅
I use to the weight lift pattern so i added it to other bodyweight stuffs

1min 30 sec to 2mins rest inbetween set😅
Some time add a few set of dead hang🤣
But do what fit best for yourself👍🏾

Engage Lats and pull

Control 3 sec up
Hold 1 sec
lower 3 sec down
These are the steps i follow

I tried. First set 3 normal reps + 3 reps of 3 secs up 3 secs stay and 3 secs down. My next set could only do 3 normal + 2 delayed reps as above. However each set was done midway of my jogging without taking rest. Fun and fulfilling.
