Simon, you dont do clickbait and your videos are high quality. Still you have relativley little views. I suppose you dont want to change your narration style, which is quite professional. So I suggest doing viral fitness challenges. Your wide skillset would probably enable novel approaches an you could also explain why they are difficult from the perspective of a fitness expert.
That was a lovely video. It was very insightful and full of exact examples so that one can easily assimilate the ideas of pull up and chin ups for better progress.
Love this!!! 🙏 thank you. Love the quality and the information. You present so well. Very easy for me to understand and chase pull-ups and chin-ups better
If my feet touch the floor when I start my chin up because my bar doesn’t go that high. Does it count as a chin up or do I need my feet off the floor ?
Lowering into a passive hang means a larger range of motion but it's important to control the exercise through the entire range you're using, i. e. keep your muscles engaged (even if elongated). Thus it's also fine to half-rep initially and improve your range of active motion (or range of tension) over time.
I've been working at chin ups and went from doing half-reps to full reps, and while I'm getting my back a bit better doing the full reps I felt like I was able to push a lot closer to muscle failure with the half reps. What you suggest with regard to gradually improving the range of motion seems like it could be a better idea than trying to go straight to full reps.
I train for strength and do less reps with more intesity with combined eccentric and concetric motion, I do start every rep from dead hang for full range of motion. Should I stop that? is it harmful or something for my body? I don't care about reps or muscles that much My primary goal is Strength Secondary is Muscles reps are not something i focus on Currently struggling arm supination flexibility
I agree chin ups are easier. But I can do way more pull ups more than chin ups now. I been doing pull ups basically every day. Now I need ro work on my chin ups because I can do over 30 pull ups.
Could we just agree that the name chin-up is dumb? „Chin-ups“ are a pull-up variation. The different hand position doesn't make it a different exercise.
Not sure why it is dumb, some would similarly say a pullup is a variation of a chinup. I do view them as pretty different exercises, most will say chinups/palms facing works biceps more, and pullups/palms away/pronated, work lats more. I prefer a neutral grip. If you do not think they are different in any way do you expect people to do the same reps on each? and work the muscles to the same extent?
@@dandeveny4513 You misunderstand. There are noticable and obvious differences but those are not nearly enough to make it a different exercise. People use a different word for pull-ups than for push-ups and that's perfectly fine, but the difference between pull-ups with a pronated and ones with a supinated grip is relatively minor: it's a variation of the same exercise, the pull-up. Besides, if you're using one word for both, why would you use the word chin-up? That's a pretty weird and kind of useless description of the exercise. Pull-up tells you exactly what it is you're doing: you are pulling yourself up; but what is a chin-up? Do you raise your chin? Does your chin not clear the bar during pull-ups with a pronated grip?
Exactly what i was looking for. The most detailed info on chin ups

@@roberthansen5727 you can do full range and then when you fatigue half range to destroy your muscles

Gi Si. Getting a bit of forearm pain doing pulls, even neutral grip. Any tips?
RING DIPS NEXT??? (And all their variations!)
good information
Simonster!
amazing
How about the “cupping of the hand”??
If your grip isn’t limiting you, it’s irrelevant. Just hold the bar however feels comfortable.
@@SimonsterStrength I’m thinking about it For Arm Wrestling.
Hello, is doing chin ups with the hands very close to each other a good way to involve biceps?
@@bennatteale probably no better than doing them with the hands shoulder width. The biceps will be plenty involved regardless.
Good good
hi simon , could you post how to do the perfect pull ups for the best big back.
Nice bro ☺️

You should be in movies 🎥
So it’s ok to let rip cage flare up?

Simon it would be great to learn the proper form for pull ups from you as you have a great back muscles and lats.

The different hand position doesn't make it a different exercise.
In german most people actually use the same word for it. ^^

Does your chin not clear the bar during pull-ups with a pronated grip?
The perfect chin-up is actually a pull-up.
