Improving pull ups

[bosshog7]

I can only hit 5 pull ups and have been improving that amount for a while! How can I improve my reps?

keep working at them but don't overtrain

Just keep practicing it. The more you do it the better you get at it eventually.
Increase volume, vary rep ranges etc.

Improve strength and reduce bodyweight

Improve strength and reduce bodyweight

This exactly. You could also always supplement your pullups with training on a pullup assist machine, lat pull downs, etc. to increase your capacity as well.

Just keep at it. Like everything else you'll eventually get better. The journey is the fun part.
