dunno if this actually helps but whatevs

when doing body weight stuff, unless it's dips I usually do 8 sets to failure (which is until you can't do anymore). so do them until you can't anymore, take a ~30 second break, repeat 8 times. since there's literally no other weight putting a rep number to any bodyweight exercise that isn't dips wont do much for you imo.

are you trying to lose weight? if you are, eat like a pussy rabbit (leaves my bro)

if you are going to supplement this diet with actually working out, since you will be burning a lot of fat anyway you should just eat foods like: brown rice, beans, breast meat chicken, nuts, turkey, the good shit. then just set limits for yourself. when I first started I just ate like 2 grams of protein per my body weight in lbs + ~2,500 calories per day. I saw pretty good gains. just take shitty foods out of your diet, replace them with good stuff. I can put up a list of good foods in the OP.

I wouldn't eat lots honestly dude, red meat is known to cause a lot of health issues if you eat a lot. it's not like, "oh shit never eat it", but just be careful you know

If you're trying to lose weight, you can count your calories using something like myfitnesspal. I used it for around 3 months until I was so used to eating so little that I didn't need to keep an eye on my intake as much.

@mwah thanks for the tip, it finally feels like my muscles are doing something.

Oh by the way are there any stretches/warmup you need to do before doing chinups?

nah, not unless you're cold as fuck if you're doing mostly bodyweight or even starting with just bodyweight you might want to consider going for a 10 minutes jog before your work out.

I've also started posting some resources for working out, added some bodyweight stuff you might wanna check out. you'd do all of those (and pretty much all push up variants: diamond, clap, etc) to failure in sets of 8.

Edit Almost forgot but for chin ups just touch your toes rotate your torso etc. To get the back stretched out
Couldn't hurt to stretch your biceps either.
Remember stretching isn't supposed to feel comfortable so if you don't feel anything you're not stretching well enough

yea i used to be a breakdancer so i know the excruciating pains of some stretches
anyway i'll try those stretches next session, but how are you supposed to stretch the biceps anyway?

might try some of those variants but i'll most likely stick to chinups as i don't like having my face on the dirty floor.

This is the bar I am using by the way, but I was wondering which handles are best to use.

Also do you believe in PWO

my go to is musclepharm "combat" 'cause when it comes to shakes I'm a huge lightweight and I used to fucking throw up all the time after drinking whey. but musclepharm combat has great flavors and I tend to mix them with some banana and peanut butter. but yeah, their stuff is delicious I'd check it out.

if you mean pre-workout I used to take C4 (like one container of it then pretty much never again). the upsides were I had hella energy and I was always super focused during my workout, pretty sure while using C4 my max bench was like 275 when I was working out consistently and about a month after getting off it went down to 250 just because when I do any main compound exercises I usually do supersets of some supplementary exercises in the same muscle group and it wears my muscles out pretty quickly sometimes. so when I was taking C4 I had peak energy throughout my entire workout, it was pretty awesome.

but, when I took it it made my body tingle and I felt uneasy if I was standing still or resting. as if I had to move. those feelings alone made me not buy it again. I might consider using that product again, 'cause it was sick and I was sort of a pussy back then when I used it. I'd be careful with that stuff though, I don't think it's for everyone.
