I can currently do about 15 chin-ups. What is a reasonable goal?

Anything over 10 is great so just see what you can get to now.

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
