Try to mix big compound movements like pull ups and holding yourself at the top of the bar in supersets. This will eventually be good for both hypertrophy and strength
I’ll never forget when I started doing pull ups in the gym at 18. My biceps, forearms, grip strength, and lats EXPLODED. Not only that, but everyday feats of strength got way easier and not to mention i could handshake harder and yank people towards me when dapping them up, lol. If you’re not doing pull ups you need to do them immediately and do yourself a favor
I'm trying but it's really difficult to even get 1. Been trying to work up to it but I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. I can hold myself at the halfway point on the lowering side and been working on getting clean slow negative reps but i can't make myself go back up even slightly.
MY FAV Functional Exercise!! Great for back and great for when you accidentally fall into the animal pit at the zoo cause you were supposed to be watching your stupid friend's kid who keeps wandering off & ends up in trouble and then you have to jump down and grab em before the tigers show up so you go to the wall and have to be strong enough to pull yourself and the unorthodox weighed kid up to stay outta harm's way ahhhh good ol Pullups a classic.
One arm dead hangs really helped me for grip strenght for my deadlift, they are a game changer. I improoved my grip strenght și much that it's not the limiting factor anymore when doing any pulling movement ,and yes i know this isn't totally related to the topic
@Nobody doing constant pull ups , rows without straps would be the first part. Secondly , all of my non maximal rdl's and dl's are done double overhand, and what worked the best for grip was farmer's walk and heavy shrugs.So my suggestion is to get user to the pain cause it will hurt a fuck tone and get volume from any exercises that you do
Spot on, Bioneer! Excellent video! Arched back pull ups are an overlooked variation and offer a whole new dimension to calisthenics back training. For those who think they have outgrown BW reps, try these and they will change your mind 💪
This movement has become my top priority after learning we are some of the only animals on the planet whom have the shoulder articulation to do this. It's kind of our animal superpower, which allowed us as a species to learn how to throw.
@@user-gi6zj8um6t apes are different though, different rotating structures. apes swing more and produce less force. not sure if an ape could throw a fastball, for example
@@user-gi6zj8um6t apes can throw but it’s very weak like a chimp could only throw a base ball at 25 miles per hour but just a reguler adult can throw it at about 50 untrained but a trained one can throw about 80 miles per hour and gorillas throw like the chimps too
Pullups is something I've always struggled with. When I found out about Pavel Tsatsouline's Greasing the Groove (GtG), I began using that. Now hat I've seen this video, and have learned a few more than what ive gleaned from YT over time, I had the epiphany that I could do variations for GtG. I'm not sure why I never thought of this before. Again, thank you for all of the in-depth focus videos on specific movements, including this one. Also, the editing and sound on this was awesome! I was delightfully surprised with the changes in style. Plus, I really enjoyed seeing your humor/humour. The middle finger at your shirt almost made me choke on my breakfast. I had to pause the video to laugh, control myself, go back a bit, and resume the video. This made my day! Thank you!
@@himalayantongue I am not here to see but I can only suggest what you probably already know. Check your form. This is best done with a friend or a camera. I use a GoPro, and that's how I found what I felt vs what really was, were 2 totally different things. Switch up variations between slower movements, eccentrics, and etc. Sometimes, it's the repetition that kills the gains, if done in the same way everytime. And lastly, stay consistent. Even if it doesn't happen when it does for others, the usual, or the majority, it might be something that takes you longer. It's certainly frustrating but worth it when it happens, like an achievement unlocked. I hope this helps you and anyone who happens to read it. Have a peaceful evening.
@@wesleyangel777 Thanks for the reply. I've been doing pullups for a long time and my form is pretty much flawless(not just my own opinion either, lol). But I've also been at a plateau for a long time. I was hoping GtG might change things but it didn't seem to work at all, just kept me at the same level of strength. Consistency isn't a problem, but I'll admit my training has never been particularly structured. Out of the things you mentioned, the variations might be what I'm missing the most. I'll have to try experimenting with different grips and eccentrics and whatnot because I haven't been doing that much. Thanks for the advice!
I've been doing 100 a day of them 5 days a week, alongside other calisthenics movements ever since I got tired of the gym closing for lockdowns a year ago. My body has completely changed shape and have never felt better
@@syedzaheerhussainshahkazmi1241 I keep it easy so, 5 reps 20 sets. I switch between pull ups and dips. Every minute on the minute I'm doing 5 pull ups and 10 dips for 20 sets. I treat lower body the same way and add a lot of gtg functional calisthenics throughout the day to keep the blood flowing
Holy moly macacorni, i look to get my arms stronger since i think it might be the reason i can't do a pull up, so im doing natural grip couldn't feel a thing in my biceps but i did my chest for some reason searched on reddit and the result reminded me of something from this video 🤔(mostly my subconsciousness) "When performing the tactical pull up you will be slightly *PROTRACTING* the shoulder blades" 🤦♂️ Amlost coudldn't do it and i instantly felt the movement in the biceps and arms, thank you bionner!
Excellent video Pal! I started doing pull ups last year and could only do one. I can now do sets of 15, 12, 10, 8 and 6. I am now ready to add some more variations and this video gives me tons of ideas! Thanks!
Congrats. I started last year at 3 with a goal of increasing my pullups but didn't do as well as you. I can do 7-8 now. Also had to work through a bicep injury for a month. All the best.
i would say you are already at the level to train for one arm pull up, i started when i reached 20 pull ups and it only took 2-3 months for me to be able to do my first one arm pull up and the only ones Equipment I used was a pull-up bar, my training consisted of just holding the bar with one hand and the other on my wrist, then I would do the concentric part of the repetition and in the eccentric part I would release my hand from my wrist, I would do 4-5 sets Of 3 to 5 repetitions and finished the training with 2-3 sets of chin-ups/pull ups, 2× a week, if you can do a forearm and biceps strengthening it will help a lot and the last accessory that I I would say it might help is a row, preferably one-sided rowing would be more specific
@@Evan75163 I've just started experimenting with one arm pull-ups by grasping a ring with one hand and grasping my wrist with the other and doing pull-ups that way. I'll have to watch some videos on how to progress to a one armed pull up. So far my goal has been to learn to do a muscle up but my bar dips are still really weak.
@@moritzhoffmeister4824 I did a lot of inverted rows, nearly every day and kept trying to do pull-ups at least three times per week. I focused a lot of training on that particular set of exercises but more importantly I sopped drinking alcohol and started eating more vegetables and proteins and less empty carbs. I lost almost 30 lbs which means that I was pulling up less weight with every rep.
Great video as always Adam! Also great thanks to Hampton from Hybrid Calisthenics, Jaxblade, FitnessFAQ, You Bioneer, and Undersun fitness for achieving my fitness goals with long term mental strength.

Sounds like you fellas hung in the bottom position too much instead of hoding yourself slightly above. Very easy and common way to mess up your rotator cuffs and elbow tendons doing pullups
Big fan of pull-ups as an exercise everyone should aspire to do as part of their regular training. Loved the detailed variants included here as some more advanced ways to target different areas, improve mobility, etc…💪 This was possibly the most interesting video I’ve seen on pull-ups to date! Well done & happy new year!
@@uvler I agree, as your ability to do pull-ups is a direct reflection of your strength to weight ratio of much of your upper body, even including your core. Hands down one of the best exercises & a great indicator of physical fitness for most people. 💪
This is more of my style of exercising. You won’t see me in the gym lifting weights, but I will be doing pull-ups, it’s just such a more natural way that goes with the way our bodies evolved, and more entertaining too (and gentle on our discs). I love everything that engages our innate body abilities that we lost along the way, like squatting and pull-ups. I know that a big part of my problems with my back had to do with losing these abilities, as soon as I started recovering them, I started getting better.
I started doing half reps I'll do half way up all the way down and all the way up stopping half way after. I swear it gives a good pump and improves mind muscle connection
Just a shout out to the always brilliant use of Synthwave underscoring the videos. Love the genre, Timecop 1983, FM84, Perturbator, and tons more. Its fantastic training, yoga, chilling music and I love hearing it accompanying the amazing videos.
Great Vid. One thing I love doing to target grip/forearms is to hang towels over the bar and do pull ups off those. You could also wrap the bar. As long as you’re widening the grip.
A fine video on my favorite/most challenging workout. I'm a low-body fat guy in his late 30s looking to boost my strength, and increasing my max reps on pullups has been surprisingly hard! I'll study these variations for an improved understanding of the mechanics. And congrats on your new child - mine have been the greatest blessing in my life bar none!
Good shit as always statred out in a rehab hospital 3 years ago with a destroyed body with massive trauma. I am back movement and blood flow healed me. Your videos are awesome. I shattered my hip shattered pelvis broke right shoulder broke 10 ribs severe hypothermia and bruised lungs. Crawled threw the woods got in my truck and found my phone and called 911. Trained hard my whole life wouldn't be here if I didn't. Listen to this man his advice could save your life. This is why we do it prepare yourself for the worst and it won't be that bad. God bless you and your family.
Man, I'm such a fan of you! I love how you include all methods of training (whether it's FRoM or not) and see positive effects in all of them. Your naturally-based, as I'd like to call it, philosophy on fitness and movement is something I truly appreciate. There is no wrong in movement, as long as you do it thoughtfully (meaning you don't overdo exercises that are painful, but gradually expose yourself to said movement). Seeing you do different workouts in nature is so inspiring! Keep it going brother, much respect and appreciation! 🙌🏻
Pullups with a slow negative are great. However it wasn’t until I started doing heavy rows that my back started developing into a full thick 3D back. Yates rows and rack pulls.
Love that you mention rock climbing more and more in your videos. Would love for you to go deeper into climbing, outside of the rope climbs you've touched on.
I'm sorry to hear that your parental leave is over. Mine ends in March, althought i would like it to last forever. Well, maybe you could make a video about starting training after parental leave. I mean dads and mums are in a war superheros... As for usual great topic. I wanna try out some variasouns now.
Broke my new record after 5 years of shoulder recovery yesterday, dislocated my shoulder in my sleep this night. Will be training rows again in a month to build up pull-ups again. Progress is not linear but the mind muscle connection did help me to place back the humerus in to the socket without help.
Excellent video.. I do pull-ups and chin-up twice a week. I like using gym rings to get the rotation when pulling up + it's helped me get a bit stronger especially when performing ring dips. Keep the videos coming. 👍
Welcome back! The content you prepared for your break was fantastic. Grant's video was great, too. As always, you gave me great ideas for more variations I can work into my calisthenics program. Btw... How is the community video coming? 🙄 I'm asking for a friend 😉
Great video as always. Just what I needed too as I'm trying to improve my pull ups. Welcome back from paternity leave and congratulations on the birth of your second. All the best to you and all your family.
I hope the lack of sleep isnt hitting your training too hard mate! As someone who has an 18 month year old and limited gym time I find my pullup bar in my garage essential to keeping me strong and fit. I can do an absolute killer workout in 20 mins with a bunch of pullup variations.
Just wanna let you know, I just saw a video from 2017, and the vast difference in editing, production, confidence etc between then and now, is very inspiring! And congratulations on the birth of your child!

Trained hard my whole life wouldn't be here if I didn't. Listen to this man his advice could save your life. This is why we do it prepare yourself for the worst and it won't be that bad. God bless you and your family.
Pool ups are so fun and cool and with how versatile they appear to be when you talk about them I'm glad they are so popular
A good stretch at the bottom of the pullup with a nice full range of motion is apperently very stimulative for hypertrophy as well
I thank you for your videos, but even more for your smile and your kindness
This guy changed my thinking about training. Always amazing
Man, I'm such a fan of you! I love how you include all methods of training (whether it's FRoM or not) and see positive effects in all of them. Your naturally-based, as I'd like to call it, philosophy on fitness and movement is something I truly appreciate. There is no wrong in movement, as long as you do it thoughtfully (meaning you don't overdo exercises that are painful, but gradually expose yourself to said movement). Seeing you do different workouts in nature is so inspiring! Keep it going brother, much respect and appreciation! 🙌🏻
We need to get this man more views
Pullups with a slow negative are great. However it wasn’t until I started doing heavy rows that my back started developing into a full thick 3D back. Yates rows and rack pulls.
Love that you mention rock climbing more and more in your videos. Would love for you to go deeper into climbing, outside of the rope climbs you've touched on.
The evolution of your editing and this channel is amazing great work and awesome info!
digging the new editing effects 💯
I just wanted to let you know that you are one of the reasons I chose to do physiotherapics and coaching as a job
Awesome video. Been doing both arched and hollow pull ups, wide grip and narrow. This explains a lot. Thanks!
Welcome back! And great video, I thought I had a good amount of variation but definitely still some new options!
For the algorithm! Glad you're back at it. 👍
I'm sorry to hear that your parental leave is over. Mine ends in March, althought i would like it to last forever.
Well, maybe you could make a video about starting training after parental leave. I mean dads and mums are in a war superheros...
As for usual great topic. I wanna try out some variasouns now.
Great idea!
Your music got me rocking out.
Whenever I want to find out more about a fitness subject, my go-to is The Bioneer.
Broke my new record after 5 years of shoulder recovery yesterday, dislocated my shoulder in my sleep this night. Will be training rows again in a month to build up pull-ups again. Progress is not linear but the mind muscle connection did help me to place back the humerus in to the socket without help.
I was really in need of this video. Ty so much im gonna use it all
If I could only do one exercise for the rest of my life, it'd probably be arched back pullups. Welcome back and cant wait for the next vids!
I must say, your videography skills as well have become very impressive!
You look and present exceptionally well-
Excellent video.. I do pull-ups and chin-up twice a week. I like using gym rings to get the rotation when pulling up + it's helped me get a bit stronger especially when performing ring dips. Keep the videos coming. 👍
Can you make a video about muscle gain/hypertrophy only using resistance bands?
Bioneer, you are amazing dude, you changed my perspective of fitness
Just came across your channel so happy I did thats for the great content!
Pull ups have always been my favorite exercise, great tips here
Welcome back!
The content you prepared for your break was fantastic. Grant's video was great, too.
As always, you gave me great ideas for more variations I can work into my calisthenics program.
Btw... How is the community video coming? 🙄 I'm asking for a friend 😉
Man your editing skills have developed so much throughout the years!!
Great video as always. Just what I needed too as I'm trying to improve my pull ups.
Welcome back from paternity leave and congratulations on the birth of your second. All the best to you and all your family.
Crazy physique. 💪🏾 thank you for a great video
I regularly do a lot of this already, good to know 👊🏼
Flipping off the shirt was brilliant - well played sir 👏 😂😂
Great video! You didn’t mention “greasing the groove” on rest days.
A little while ago I picked up Functional Training and Beyond it was a very great read!
CONGRATULATIONS 🎊 thank you for your handwork mate:) ur videos get me super excited to workout
always great to see your channel and the great info you keep out!
Best RUclipsr in fitness aspect
Thanks for the great video man. I see the gains kicking in btw, looking big!
Taking a second to give your shirt the finger was by far the best part of this video.
I hope the lack of sleep isnt hitting your training too hard mate!
As someone who has an 18 month year old and limited gym time I find my pullup bar in my garage essential to keeping me strong and fit. I can do an absolute killer workout in 20 mins with a bunch of pullup variations.
I only ever do dead hang pull-ups. I was always taught the other versions were cheating. I will try adding in a few variations. 👍
Your training always looks really cool and creative
amazing video bioneer !! please make a video about them Dips :))
great job. great message. great video
1:20 there it is, taking shirt of meme is what I look forward the most in your videos. I like very much every part of the video of course as well

Loving the videos Adam. The pace and setting are brilliant
The best innovator on you tube.
