Good stuff! This guy is a warrior. Been working on chest to bar about 5 months, got 9 chest to bar on my first working set today, and held the lever for about 3 seconds. Danglin' at age 63. Pullups are king. Never stop.
Dang, you're crazy john! May i know what is your drive/ inspiration to working out? I'm trying to convince my parents to move their body to stay healthy 😂
@@Alon_Bar My motivation is that I feel like absolute crap if I don't work out for awhile, and I believe, I KNOW that quality of life in old age is largely determined by physical health. Chronic pain will age you as fast as drinking and smoking. Stay ahead of decrepitude!
Two years later, hit 21 pullups this morning, age 65. Getting SO CLOSE to the one arm pullup! Never stop danglin'. Scap hangs for time really help. Steel club bells have really improved my grip (even better that weighted pullups). Women, even young women, act like fools when I have my shirt off.
Thanks so much for this video. I found it earlier today and put the tips into practice during my back workout this afternoon. I've never managed a chest-to-bar pull-up before in my life but on my first attempt (2 sets of 5 reps) I got my mid chest to bar height on every rep, actually bumping it on the bar for most of them. You've made one 70-something-year-old pretty damned pleased with himself!
This past year I've really focused on low volume strength building progressive calisthenics and I've had the best results ever ! High volume and circuit style training just leaves me flat and weak . You look in great shape mate , keep at it !
I did weight training alot, but due to my low body fat %, fast metabolism, and long limbs (wich mainly caused bad form) i did not gain any significant amount of muscle. Yet when i began doing this, with good form, and good activation, pullups has been the single best ever exercise i have ever done for my development in my back, and overal posture.
Many of us have my man. I’m 60 and began a calisthenics program 6 months ago. I NEVER could do 2 pull-ups, now 2-3 sets 5-6 are routine. I feel 30 again!
Hi PB, I still train with two legs, the one is just a prosthesis but that doesn't mean it doesn't weigh anything. It's max half a pound lighter from what a normal leg would weigh, so I wouldn't say it's an extreme advantage :)
great job there my friend. as you said, the number of pull-ups, or how much you bench or squat is not the only thing that matters. how you perform the exercise is just as important. took me a while to do pull ups correctly and i still check this kind of videos in case i have missed something. best tip i ever got: when you enter a gym room leave your ego outside. before adding weight, make sure you can keep a solid form in every singe rep.
Always precise and technically correct. I am impressed with the way that Anthony make it looking that simple but especially to make me understand how a pull up is working on my body. Thank you man!!!
Great video. If I may, during the active hang getting the lats to initiate the pull, be sure to get the shoulders into external rotation (which you are doing every time but it was a mistake I was making). You may lose reps at first because it's harder but it will save you weeks or months of pain from elbow tendonitis
bro thank you so much. I can do like 10 regular pull ups but I cant do a single chest to bar. I looked for advice but they would always say things like retract your scapula or whatever the heck its called and lean back, practice isometric holds and what not. I have never actually felt my own lats before and learning how to make that mind muscle connection helped a lot. I still cannot touch my chest to the bar but I think your advice made everything a lot more clear to me
For me, one of the best sources for information on the topic of bodyweight workouts! Really enjoying your content in the last couple years! Will apply these Tipps ASAP. Thanks brother 💪🏼
Thanks. I just got a pull-up bar and was trying to figure out why I can't get my head to anywhere near the same height with pull ups as chin ups. This was it. I couldn't activate my lats at all. I still can't do a full chest to bar pull-up, but this got me going in the right direction.
I appreciate the way you said that: our body likes the path of the least amount of resistance (and then you explained why a proprer form is superior) For me, as a guy who cares alot more about perfect technique and sometimes view others as cheaters for bad forms, you made it look different now, and it makes sense why people do that, I like your attitude man, you definitely affected mine for the positive :)
@@BodyweightMuscle I’ve been doing one of your programmes since January this year. My strength has increased massively and my reps has increased but I’m struggling to shed any fat. I’m 28, weigh 81kg and 6 foot tall. Any advice would be much appreciated, cheers.
@@BodyweightMuscle my diet is good. I have a very physical job, plus doing your training programme I need a lot of calories. I eat roughly 2500 calories everyday sometimes more depending on how hard of a day I’ve had. I’ve been using myfitnesspal and set my macros to 40/40/20 so I’m getting plenty of protein plus it keeps me fuller for longer throughout the day with the high protein intake.
@@BodyweightMuscle when I first started the programme I was eating 1g of protein for 1 pound of bodyweight. So it worked out I was eating 180g of protein daily. I did that for 3 months and nothing changed to my body. I looked into why nothing was happening to my body and the feedback I got was I was consuming enough protein.
@@gauravmeghwal4438 i have always considered this one as the "true" pull up. The version that only requires the chin to be over the bar, i view them as half pull ups😁 But then again that's just my nonsense🤣😆

thank you for this god, the absolute hardest is touching chest to the bar - that end range of motion i am weak in it and i've been trying all sorts of exercises to build it
im 16 and did pullups every day or everyother day since covid started and after 4 months i was able to flex the lats. Its been 13 months and now i can easily flex it and connect with it easily. takes time
I improved a lot since i watched this video months ago, at least now I can do x6 clean pull-ups... But the chest to the bar thing is impossible to me lol. Maybe I should arch ("hollow") my back? Contract/activate the scapulae even more? Good stuff man, I started this journey thanks to your channel as inspiration.

I feel my back 1000% better with chest to bar reps with arched back. Its like a row pullups mixture and freaking hard, even though usually pullups are quite easy for me. I can barely do 7 and feel my back like never before
Excellent video.. I find it hard to get my chest to bar. But I have been doing flex hold at the top with my chest on bar and holding for a few seconds then lowing slowly. To build the strength and I also been doing weighted chin-ups as I find them a little easier to do..👍

Hello Fareed! Your focus should go on diet next! Start by tracking protein and calories. If you get those two right, 90% of you diet and physique issues will be solved :)
So I can easily squeeze out 12 pull-ups with my entire head over the bar but I guess I can’t manage to get chest to bar, I’m hoping these tips help with that. I’ve been adding weights to my pull-ups but now I feel it’s at the cost of my form. Time to start over and get my form down before adding weights
And the award for best pull ups tutorial on RUclips goes to: Body Weight Muscle! After all, all you need is a pull up bar ;) great video man, always precious advice on your channel.
I've been focusing on getting my chin above the bar. I thought the aim was to keep the body straight and go up, not come at an angle so that your chest could hit the bar! Thanks for the correction.
Both are valid types of pull ups. Chest to Bar or Hollow Body pull ups. Puts a little bit of different focus on different muscles. Just make sure you don't excessively push your chin forward to "cheat" it over the bar when doing hollow body pull ups.
Thank you for this video. I've just started with pull-up assist bands and can't wait to try your technique to activate my lats first. I went to the link you have for the books, but they bring you to a Kindle only Amazon page. Are there other versions (PDF) of these books? Or do you know of other downloadable books for the pull-ups and push-ups? Thanks again, new subscriber after this video!
Hi William, it depends... During maintainance periods, I'll do them twice a weeks. During more intermediate periods I'll go 3 times minimum, and during more hard core periods I'll aim for 4-5
