  1. It's all internal. I have calluses just like yours but they don't hurt, it's just that one knuckle, beneath the skin.
  2. Yeah I think I know what you mean. I play guitar so I can relate to that illustration lol thanks!
  3. Yeah maybe. I'm currently at 3 sets of 5 full pull-ups, worked up from 3 sets of 1...so I've been at it for a while but yeah, maybe since I'm finally getting moving up in reps my hands are just worn out or something. I dunno.
  4. Hey everyone! This is my first time posting here...couldn't find any help elsewhere and visit this site all the time already so I thought I'd make an account and see wassup. Anyway.... I bought this thingy a while ago: https://www.perfectonline.com/product/pullup And it's great! I can do pull-ups/chin-ups, then unlock it and lower it to superset with Australian pulls/chins. The problem is, one half of the bar has a smaller circumference (I think that's the first time I've used that word since highschool) than the other half. The reason for this is because the bar is expandable to fit various door widths, a smaller bar fits into, and can slide in or out, of the larger bar. In my particular situation, the only way to do shoulder-width pull-ups is to have one hand RIGHT where the too bars meet. So the little lip is right under my middle (palm side) knuckle (whats the inside knuckle called?). When doing pull-ups I haven't noticed any pain but for a few days now I've noticed that knuckle is really sensitive to the touch. It almost feels bruised, I THINK it's because of the weird bar size, so I've added some thicker foam grips for padding. Anyway, aside from the specific type of pull-up bar that I have, does that kind of pain sound normal? Or at least semi-common? It's definitely not from calluses or anything..
