- When it comes to Pull-Ups and Chin-Ups, are you as strong as other men? Put yourself to the test to find out how strong you are on a body weight to strength fitness test.
As a man, how many pull-ups and chin-ups should you be able to do?
Well according to the research, the average man under the age of 40 should be able to complete at least 8 pull-ups and 9 chin-ups. But let’s break it down a little more because your age does affect these numbers as well.
Here is a chart with the different age categories and your ranking by the number of pull-up reps you can complete:
And here is a chart with the different age categories and your ranking by the number of chin-up reps you can complete:
So in a strength to bodyweight ratio,
Beginners are considered stronger than 5% of men
Novices are considered stronger than 20% of men.
Intermediates are stronger than 50% of men.
Advanced are considered stronger than 80% of men.
And elites are considered stronger than 95% of men.
When it came to pull-ups, I was able to get to 13 before my shoulder started hurting at which point I tapped out.
Next I took a break, then moved on to the chin-ups portion of this challenge.
When it came to chin-ups I fared slightly better, and was able to complete 17 reps.
So now it’s your turn. Let me know how many you were able to do for both pull-ups and chin-ups along with your age and drop your results in the comments below. I look forward to seeing how you fared. Best of luck fellas!
Age 37 - 13 Pull-Ups / 17 Chin-Ups.
58 years old...a heart attack survivor with both shoulders also surgically repaired 4 years ago...So I am now at 6 Pull-ups and 6 Chin-ups. I am working at this daily to improve.
AGE 35 (5'9, 210 lbs). 15 pull ups, 17 chin ups. I dont think that the average man can do 8 pull ups. Because of the rate of obesity, I think its more like 1 pull up - at least in the US. Every time I go to the gym I see men using the assist up machines rather than the pull up stations.
Never been able to do pull ups. Have a pull up bar but can't do one. lol Thanks for sharing.
I'm 40. I do 3-4 sets of 25 reps every other day. I mix between pull ups/chinups/ and hammer grip chin ups. I also do sets of 40 push ups.
Thats great man!
@@SimpleManChannel Thanks I definitely took some cues from watching you on the channel. I also walk 7 miles a day under 14 minute miles. I'm gonna do the one day step challenge you did someday soon!
At 54 years old I got 30 reps in 1 set and 5 reps with 50kg extra weight hanging at a bodyweight of 67kg, now 59 years old didn't train much the last 5 years due to my wife getting brain cancer and dying and a spell in a South East Asian jail (now been deported ha!) Trying to get it back, weighted backpack run this morning morning followed by hanging on a roof edge to do pullups got 21 reps and 3 reps with 25kg extra in backpack plus I'm now a flabby 73kg.
I’m 26 years old, 170 pounds and can do 7 pull ups and 10 chin ups. I feel weak.
That’s not to shabby man!
I call it BS. Most average guys can't do ONE pullup. Most guys over 30 are overweight and don't exercise. I also remember when I was in highschool. I was doing 12 pullups and I was the only one who did more than 10. Half of guys couldn't do more than one.
I'm 12 but i'd like to put my numbers anyway😅
11 or 12 chin-ups, and 7 or 8 pull ups. Not sure if these are my actual max reps because my muscles are pretty sore from the 100 chin ups for 30 days challenge.
When I was in my 20s I was 70kg did about 15 pull ups 18 chin ups, at 37 now I'm like 6 pull ups and 8 chin ups but I'm nearly 90kgs pretty solid, workout constantly. Not a.bodybuilder by any means
I'm surprised the pull-up number is higher than the chin-up number. I thought the general consensus was that chin-ups were easier. Anyway, I have no idea what my max is because I don't want to mess up my elbows, but three times a week I do 9 pull-ups and 10 pull-ups (as the last set in which I do more than the previous ones). I don't know how many more I could do and I'm not prepared to risk injury to find out. [edit: I'll be 67 in a month]
Age 29- 9 chin ups, 5 pull ups. My girlfriend is 22 she was not able to do even one pull up or chin up.
Pretty solid! I’m sure it’s much harder for the ladies
Nope not even close. I can barely do 5....
Age 30 can do 40 pull-ups
And over 40???
Ummm I’m a woman, so…
Sorry, most of my viewers are men haha. For women, Beginners to Novices at 1 or less, Intermediate is 6, Advanced is 14 and elite is 24. Thanks for watching!
