The scaffold really hurt my hands on the heavier sets, plus the bar was bloody freezing to the touch. Would be interesting to know how much extra weight I'd be able to manage on proper pull up bars with thinner rubberised grip etc.

The scaffold really hurt my hands on the heavier sets, plus the bar was bloody freezing to the touch. Would be interesting to know how much extra weight I'd be able to manage on proper pull up bars with thinner rubberised grip etc.

I did some scaffold pullups for the first time last week, with thumbs on top suicide style grip and was amazed how comfy they felt.
If anything felt like it was more comfortable for me. Probably depends on a millions factors like hand size, grip strength and all that.

Still beastly strong pullups.

I have quite small girly hands so the thicker bar is much harder for me (I tend to use a suicide grip too on heavier sets), plus obviously the grip is tougher. Basically I'm just trying to kid myself that I'd be lots stronger on a proper bar
