15 is good. I would try increasing range of motion and doing full muscle ups

Add weight to a belt and progress from there

I started at 5 with a bar in my closet. I do them at night and in the morning.

Very few men over 25 can do 10 real pull ups. Full extension that is.

We found doing pull ups is kind of like running.

15 is enough, set a squat goal now

you are too light. Need to put on some weight to make it harder.

I use a belt to hang 45-90 additional lbs when I do my pull ups for this reason
