When I was 18 I could do pullups forever, it didn't even feel hard. (sigh)
Ha. When I was 18, I'd have laughed in the face of anyone who'd told me I'd ever be able to do a pull-up.
But last summer I could, at one point, do three in a row... I vaguely recall. So I have hope that I'll get back there once the weather becomes friendlier and I can train more regularly again.
From what I've read, I have the impression that (assuming you haven't been off for years and years), it tends to be faster to regain strength than to gain it in the first place.
