Good video but the music is louder than your voice and your voice is the most important next to the exercise movement. Thought you like to know. Also that noise woke my wife up.
I flexed my back watching this and something clicked. Now I have back pain. People having arguments in comment section. Nothing new, instead of logically proving someone is wrong they call each other dumb.
My high school coach's tip was "don't pull your chest UP to the bar, pull your elbows DOWN to your waist." It gets rid of the shrug and engages your entire back chain. 20 years later and he's still barking in my head. Thanks Coach!
I see you might be learning english? I have tips for you if it helps. It should just be "I appreciate" and put "thx for the tag" instead. Using "appreciate" doesn't really sound right here on it's own though, you have to say "i appreciate" followed up by the thing you appreciate or just referring to it as "this" or "that" or "you" if you're saying you appreciate the person. Should be more like "I appreciate you tagging me" or something along those lines. And "I'am" isn't an english word. Good luck.
The thing that worked for me was finding out I had lat amnesia. Then the Mountain Dog channel on RUclips has a video on how to feel your lats. Once I did what he said in the video it was viola. I could feel my lats first time in 28 years of life. Once I knew how they felt then it was easy to turn them on. Started with negatives and then could do pull ups using lats easily. Pull ups are lot easier with lats pulling up compared to other muscle group. Edit: The video I mentioned was this “ Can't Activate Back Muscles | How 2 Solve That Problem” by MountainDog1.
Wow? But what if use all muscles to pull up? Isn't that more sigma? Okey how to feel lays? Pls tell because I believe this information true, I'm a beta I suck at pull ups but I still do pull ups AND I ALSO WANT TO GROW A TURTLE SHELL 🐢 ON MY BACK SIDE!
@@IsraelCountryCube I have replied you twice apparently my comment is being removed. There’s this video called “Can't Activate Back Muscles | How 2 Solve That Problem” by mountaindog1 channel by legend John Meadows. It’ll show you how to activate lats. All the best mate.
I started working out again for a few weeks. I went from living life as a gamer sedentary lifestyle, to gym spammer. I changed my diet as well. After 2 weeks I focused on form and what muscles I should hit. It meant my weights went down as I was now properly doing the excercise but sometimes you need to take a step back to go forward. During cycling I focused on using my butt, during pullups the back, etc. Right now, everything comes naturally. Cycling became easy because my butt is always activated now. During normal standing posture my upper abs and my lower back are naturally activated, while before I didn’t even feel them. Appearance wise I have not changed much, but mentally and physically I am A LOT stronger. Especially for someone that ate too little for years. Keep going boys and girls. Keep believing in yourself. And even if you don’t look like the jocks in the gym; you’re already an anime character for being there, because most won’t go. B-E-L-I-E-V-E in YOU. YOU CAN DO IT AND I BELIEVE IN YOU NO MATTER HOW YOU LOOK. GO FIRST > LEARN PROPER FORM AFTER > FOCUS ON DIET AFTER THAT. Don’t go too fast heroes. Even heroes need breaks sometimes ❤. One step at a time.
Try getting off the pull-up bar when you finish your set and then getting right into a jackknife pull-up and completing as many reps as you can get down there. Two sets of this superset and you'll be toasty and you'll be reinforcing form😊
I’m struggling with pull ups and just realized recently it’s my form. I don’t engage my pack with push-up either and it’s been slowing my fitness gains. 😭 gotta keep working on it though! I’ve already lost some weight. Fixing my form is the next priority.
Hello apprentice plumber here in a job waiting to do a bunch of digging in the rain in Florida just wanted to say these comments are a match to the video fucking golden 😂 thanks I needed that
Good video. AltheanX has the best pull up mechanics and form videos. Spot on. Went from 15 to a 20 max. I’m 195 and 5’10”. Also helped me with proper lat pull downs and increased the load without breaking form by swinging which most do and engages unwanted muscle groups.
I actually much prefer starting at the top and learning how to stay contracted on the way down when u couldn’t do pull ups my wrestling coach just told me to hold at like 90 degrees and I don’t think he realized how much that helped develop the strength to be able to actually start doing them, if you learn to hold at the top first everything else lines up better to be getting you there, again I’d recommend starting at the top in the most contracted position and slowly going down as far as your comfortable holding until you can use the proper muscles to be pulling yourself up
I do 5 sets of 10 reps of pull ups every other day. However, 3 of the 5 sets are wide pull ups like in this video. The other 2 are hammer. Thank you for the advice as I had reasonable doubt that I was performing them incorrectly sometimes.
The thing is that this trick for whatever reason came naturally to me and a buddy of mine said that he really struggled with pull ups. He really shouldn't with his build and when I watched him I explained this whole thing I do to engage by whole back better. He blew way past me real fast after that lol...
You make positive feedback vedios. One indian fitness youtuber he only make negative vedios, criticize others shows how they are wrong. So much negativity spreading. Seeing him & other side seeing you ❤️ brother this makes you gem....
Every single one of these videos fails to mention that these postures and “correct forms” are actually extremely advanced. Most people wont be able to pull off these tips for a long time after getting their first pull up
When I was younger, I used to be able to do pullups with one hand. Now, I'm a lot older, and heavier, so I'm not able to do even one. Thanks for the tip 👍💪🙏
I always get asked why do I do this when I do pull ups or lat pull downs or anything to do with the back. And I just say “when you feel it you’ll know”
He is doing an 'almost' hollow body chin up while you are doing an arched back pullup (you focus more on the posterior chain in that case and you can even feel your hamstrings burn after a few reps while doing arched back pullups...Did you know ?), major difference and both are cool. If I remember correctly we aren't robots so a bit of everything is ok for me

For reals or are you alright?
Watch another video to fix it!!!
You might have bigger problems than pull-up form in that case.
This advice sounds dumb and unnatural. Your body knows what its supposed to do.
😂😂

That's a great tip. I'm gonna try that.
Can someone remind me in 3 months or so to make sure I'm doing it well?
Great thing to try out, thanks.
I'm pinning this comment, it's amazing advice!
Thanks for the advice I’m gonna try that next workout.

Thank you! I would literally feel the biggest despair from trying to train my lats as hardest I could and not making an impact
It makes sense why I'm so good at Pull-Ups. I feel like I've been doing this technique my entire life without realizing it!

You are correct sir!
Incredible! The mind/body connection
I went over to my bar and tried some wide grip pull ups with this set up, that feels amazing and really upped tricep engagement too

I luv this channel
The last technique makes it so much easier 👌🏻
How do I always learn something when you drop a new short or video
My rotator cuffs hurt watching that
Having your feet slightly ahead of you as opposed to behind you will help you engage your back more, but it will also make it harder.
I'm just about do go do pull ups this should help thanks
You are GENIUS ❤👍🏼
You’re a helpful dude. I look like a super hero now in part to ur vids. Thanks
Thanks for sharing.
It will help a lot . Thank you. 🙏
Thank you, awesome tip. I will definitely put it into practice. Much appreciated. Peace
Fck yeah. Thanks, man.
Fantastic advice.
Fantastic, thanks!
The aesthetic on the form change, what a machine. If v12s were humans.

Oh, dope, that makes so much sense
The best advice I heard with pull ups, was to pull your elbows to your hips vs getting your chin above the bar

I am reading Well of Ascension at the time of watching this, so the mention of mistborn was crazy for me
i stop counting my pullups long time ago.. rather focusing on long hold at the bottom, and at the top with L sit.. the same discipline with push up
Wow perfectly explained
What a pure buttcommando deltqa force
Every single one of these videos fails to mention that these postures and “correct forms” are actually extremely advanced.
Most people wont be able to pull off these tips for a long time after getting their first pull up
If you cant tell from the videos all of the torso muscles work to achieve such forms and although you cant see them even the leg muscles play a part
That's actually cool
Nice!❤
Practice perfect form always
I need this bar set up because I can’t reach the pull up bars- even with the stool. 😂
Remember to tuck elbows not flare them that little tip gave me mind miscle connection

What a Puritan take. He shows folks in great shape and great form. Some of them are women with great glutes, and some are men with great pecs. Relax.

Raise your arms in the air palms facing away from you, grab the bar and engage the lower back before you start the motion. That’ll help
