My pull-ups have stagnated at the same number for an extremely long time despite doing them twice a week and I’m starting to get really scared

Switch it up and some other pull exercises for a while. Also, eat, sleep, stretch, get some sun, think sexy thoughts, jerk your schmeat but not to porn, do some totally platonic cuddling with your best fitbro, admire the beauty of nature etc. etc.

1. How is your deadlift going? Deadlift uses many of the same muscles to pull, beleive it or not. Dont sleep on your deadlift.2. Do you take each set o failure? Stop doing that. Stop well short of failure on each set and do more sets, which leads to more total volume.3. Do full range of motion pullups. From straight arms at the bottom to touching bar to sternum. Are you even capable of touching sternum or at elast clavicles to the bar? If not, start over and try to touch chest/clavicleas to bar for at least one rep. Then start building from there.Treating pullups or chinups like a max number contest is stupid. If youre not trying to impress your HS gym coach or pass a military/police fitness tes, doing less than full rom pullups/chinups is dumb and you cheat yourself out of growth, strnegth and devlopment.

You have to do static holds at the top and various points along the ROM. Also incorporate negatives. When you do the static holds hold it as long as possible until your muscles start failing, but then let yourself down slowly instead of allowing yourself to drop. On negatives start at the top position then go very slow, like 10-15 seconds per rep. Do these in between your regular pullup days to where you have 2 pullup days and 2 days for holds/negatives. Enjoy massive gains.

you probably also have above average IQ and missing some teeth since birth, you have more ancestors than average between you and your last tree living ape ancestor. I wager you also are good at pushing and throwing (more recent evolutionary adaptation compared to hanging from branches).As we came down from trees we became projectile throwers and not latissumus dorsi users (tree hangers).Accept you are more evolved from average dude.Also you probably have alien skull archetype.Take what God gave you man and run with it. Iris what iris.

Here is my fool-proof program for pull-ups (also works for chin-ups and dips) >5x5 each week at bodyweight >if you can't do 5x5, do 5xFailure and aim to do more each week Progression will look something like this: >week 1 - 1x4, 1x3, 1x2, 1x2, 1x1 >week 2 - 1x5, 1x3, 1x3, 1x2, 1x2 >week 3 - 1x5, 1x5, 1x3, 1x3, 1x3 etc >continue until you can do 5x5 with good form >once you can do 5x5, add 10lb and start again >every time you get back to being able to do 5x5 with a new weight, add 10lb and start again t. 1.5plate weighted pull-ups & chin-ups and 2plate weighted dips >pic of my cats for engagement

People who live-feed constrictors need to be on a list. It’s fine that the snake does it, nothing wrong with it, but it’s a red flag when someone facilitates it as a hobby.

Same but it's mostly because you in a deficit. Stuck at 20 here.

hold the pullup/do hangs switch with chinups/do more alternate with dips or pushups do negative reps of a pullup when you fail do greasing the groove with a door frame pullup bar just do 1 or two or something more frequently think in terms of solutions do lat pulldown

It’s because you’re not doing progressive overload
