My goal is to do 30 consecutive pull-ups before March 1, 2015.
I'm going to try Armstrong pull-up program and will track progress here, so you will know whether it works or not :)
To keep me motivated and to give @raol an instrument for friendly trolling this gist will remain public.

Week 8 (January 26 - January 30)
Starting from this week I'm doing weighted pull-ups (+16 kg) all days except on Monday, when I do 5 max attempts.
Weighted pull-ups schema: one unweighted working set, three weighted working sets, and one unwaighted cool-down set .
