So in all honesty, if you are training and doing tons of body-weight pull-ups and for some reason you specifically train to be able to do a lot of pull-ups; you should really think about adding some weight. Although, I would take a hang board routine focusing more on finger strength than just pull-ups any day.
I agree about the hangboard routine. I have a little routine I do after climbing in the gym that consist of dead hangs on my fingers, pull ups and leg lifts.. This has really helped core and forearm strength. I was kind of at a plateau with v3's so I started the hangboard training, all of the sudden I can climb V4's and some 5's...
But yea, I can crank 15 to 20 solid pull ups and boulder a solid v4(my footwork still blows ).

I think pull ups have a bigger effect on bouldering than full climbs. However I think they can also help you survive hard climbs(assuming you have the finger strength, or else you'll just be flying up those 5.7s.)
Back on point,
15-20 pull ups on rock rings(rarely used),
onsight somewhere in 5.11,
boulder v7ish,
but I think the pull ups are a result of climbing, not the other way around. I rarely use those rock rings.

I'm old--and thus often crank 15 to 20 gaseous pull ups.

Sounds exactly like what I used to do in my regular gym days. Resulted in the worst case of elbow tendonitis I've ever had. Be careful.

Ofcourse baby Jesus can read, he's baby Jesus. He can probly read while doing 10 solid pull-ups.

I agree with this completely. My brother and I are completely different builds, I weigh 150 and he weighs 210. So whenever we refer to strength its always climbing strength or actual strength.I have more climbing strength because I weigh less, I can do many more pull-ups, and climb better. But he can lift more dead weight then me, so it is all about strength to weight ratio.

my pullups are pure plasma.
In fact, I'm doing one arms, while I type with the other hand.
I don't know how hard I'm climbing, I'm still awaiting the second ascent for confirmation.

the real question here though is:
does baby jesus wear a tuxedo t-shirt, thus signaling that he wants to be formal, but he is alas still here to party?

You think that was Merlot he turned it into? Fuck that shit, he turned it to MAD DOG 20/20!

what - no boone's farm from the sleven? that's just a crime against humanity! but the dog will do in a bind. and the bbj once whispered to me in my dreams to climb with my legs and my core, not my chicken arms
