  • As promised, here is an entire video focused on the pull-up. It will help those of you who cannot do one pull-up, all the way to those who can do 30. I hope all of you can find it helpful and will laugh at the bear attacking me! Stay until the end for outtakes...

    *I. PULL-UP TIPS*
    *Tip #1* - Squeeze the bar as hard as possible (just like in the OHP, Farmer's Walk, Squat...)
    *Tip #2* - Breathe and brace like in the Deadlift/Squat. Perform as many pull-ups as possible with the first breathe you took; if you need more air, take it either at the top of the pull-up or in motion of the pull-up (NOT AT THE DEADHANG).
    *Tip #3* - Lean back, & open your hips by crossing your bent legs
    *Tip #4* - Do NOT go to failure/your Rep Max/Max Effort set
    *II. PULL-UP PROGRESSIONS*
    *For 0-3 rep pull-ers (novice)*
    a. Band-assisted _the way he suggests them_
    b. Partner-assisted
    c. _Jumping_ negatives
    d. Re-bound rep method (jump to the top, hold for 1 sec, drop yourself *somewhat controlled*, use the elastic energy to complete one full rep; in total it's 1 & 1/2 reps)
    e. (Do not use pull-up assisted machine)
    *For 3-10 rep pull-ers (intermediate)*
    a. GTG
    b. Weighted negative
    c. Weighted singles-triples
    d. Pyramid style ( _use at the end of DL and OHP day_ : 10 pull-ups, 10 decline/wall HS pushups, then 9/9, 8/8, 7/7... 1/1. Then, when it's easy, go _also_ the way up: 2/2, 3/3... 10/10),
    e. "Month Challenges" method (day 1: 1 rep, day 2: 2 reps... day 30: 30 reps),
    f. "Month Challenges x2" method (day 1: 2 reps, day 2: 4 reps... day 30: 60 reps).
    *For >10 rep pull-ers (advanced)*
    a. Weighted pull-ups on OHP day (week 1: 5 sets x 5 ramping, week 2: 6-8 sets x 3 ramping, week 3: bodyweight conditioning [use the pyramid style, this time: 20/20, 15/15, 10/10, 15/15, 20/20]. After week 1-3, repeat this cycle 2 more times; then test out)

    Dude your arms are sick. I know in one of your previous vids you stated you don't care about your physique.

    Great Video Brian!
    I was in chemo when this video came out...that cost me ~30lbs of muscle. It's taken a very long time to get some of my strength back. I used to hit 12-14 pull-ups back in 2016. My grip strength is still lacking due to some nerve damage from chemo, but I am progressing. I'm finally able to do a few pull-ups again, and figured I should relearn some cues to help.
    This video has it all!

    @MasterOfSquirells 6 лет назад +1

    Brian, weighted pull ups are probably my favourite exercise. After seeing that you do parallel grip rather than pronated I thought I would give is a try. My elbows haven't felt so good in years!! Also my setup for parallels was my farmers handles hung over the top of my squat rack...the fat handles made them horribly difficult...but today I was in a commercial gym for the first time in ages and of course the parallels were normal circumference handles. I nearly smashed my teeth on the first rep because I went so fast!!! Huge benefits from fat handle pull ups! Thanks!! Keep beasting it and inspiring others!

    I've been stuck forever on weighted pull ups with a 25 lb plate for around 6 reps. With a 45 I could get one, maybe two on a good day. I watched this video and started doing sets of 5 bodyweight pull ups 3 or 4 times throughout the day every day. Yesterday I hit the weighted pull ups again and was shocked to nail a set of 4 with the 45 lb plate. I did a second set and got 4. On my third set I got three good ones and one to about nose level before I gave out.
    Seriously, Brian, I cannot thank you enough for this. Following your advice for about a week helped me crush a plateau I've been stuck at for almost a year!

    I think you and Alan Thrall are the only channels that I listen to for training advice lol. Started to finally focus on pull-ups because of you. I used to hate pull-ups (mostly because I sucked at it...). Got a 45 lb strict pull-up today. Not much, but progressing alot because of the advice you give and actually love pull-ups now. All my big compound lifts have been increasing since listening to you. I'm glad your channel has been blowing up since Alan introduced you about half a year ago
    P.S. Please expand and make a NEVERsate gym in Southern California!

    @enricogarro5884 7 лет назад

    Great video man! Another option is doing ladders. For example you do one rep, rest 10-20", do 2 reps, rest 10-20", do 3 reps and then you go back with the reps. This is one set. It helps me a lot for chin ups and dips maxes

    The comment about not going to failure is so true! I thought it was just me being so weak. I even go extremely weighted for small reps for several sets but if I do one failure set on the first set of body weight, I'm done for the day.

    This was extremely useful! I'm currently stuck at being able to do 12-13 strict pull-ups when I'm energetic or 6-7 after a session with heavy squats or deadlifts. Will apply this video now.

      This channel converted me to the giant set mentality. Six months training in that style, and I couldn't imagine going back to set/rest/set/rest/set/rest. My overall work capacity is through the roof and my numbers keep on creeping up. I get SO MUCH done in 90 minutes.

    Dude...you're a beast. And give some solid advice. hen it comes to training back for width and thickness, there seems to be a wide consensus that the essential trinity is deadlift, barbell bent row and chin-ups / pull-ups. Only if you can't do enough chin-ups should you do pull-downs until you can. As Dorian Yates put it, barbell row is "bread and butter". Ronnie Coleman sure did some heavy ass barbell bent rows and T-bar rows. Most powerlifters seem to do them, and many do chins as well...like Matt Crock and Dan Green. Seems like only the giants don't do much chins...I don't see Eddie Hall doing chins for reps...

    This is an awesome video, thanks Brian! The idea of greasing the groove definitely helps! Not just for pull ups but for everything! I like to practice movements... not just until I get right... but until it's impossible for me to get it wrong. This can be anything from clean + jerks to doing backflips haha!

      Why does no one do this with other exercises then? Do you do a single biceps curl at 60% ORM every half hour?
      After a couple of weeks you know the movement perfectly anyways, so that's irrelevant.

    I have noticed that "priming" my muscles by doing a couple of heavy triples makes me a lot stronger when a ditch the weight for my bodyweight pull-ups. Today I hit a new pull-up rep PR, and I'm 100% sure I wouldn't have been able to do it if I hadn't done 3 ramping sets of weighted pull-ups before.
    Whenever I do weighted pull-ups first, I feel light as a feather and strong as a giant when I remove the weight. It's a great feeling! An amazing feeling actually!

    becoming good at pull-ups is all about effort and consistency. Really, there's nothing more to it. Everyone can get at least decent at pull-ups. When I first started doing any training of any sort I fucking sucked at pull-ups and it was a complete dread for me to do them. I couldn't do more than 3 to 5 at BEST with shoulder-width supinated grip at only 55kg bodyweight. Right now, on a good day I can bang out 30 or more pronated wide-grip pull ups and I weigh 75+ kg (a good 20 kilos heavier and reps have still increased dramatically). It's all about effort guys, but it doesn't happen instantly.
