Pull-up technique is a point of confusion for calisthenics beginners. A common debate is the hollow body pull-up vs arch body form. Both pullups have their advantages and disadvantages depending on context. For weighted calisthenics, the hybrid method is commonly used in practice. This FitnessFAQs tutorial will help you build muscle and get stronger.

Great topic 😄🙌🏻
Been watching your videos for years and years now. Body by Rings way back got me to the next level of my calisthenics training and it's been nothing but up since then. Glad to see your content is getting the attention it deserves. Cheers.
When you asking "Which is better" you should specify "better for ...".
What pull to target lower lats? Hollow or arched?
To quote you directly: "Just pull that shit bro"
Great breakdown! I love how you go in-depth on these topics.
My natural inclination - before I ever read anything on exercise or calisthenics - was to do hollow body. When people started talking about arched body, I decided to try it too. Learning both only improved my game overall!
Love the hybrid technique too. Though I might be biased by the name.
The Hampton Pullup😎
damn! i always thought i was messing up pullups because i used to arch during the start and hollow near the top but now i know its hybrid!!
@@Jadeenn same, i always thought that my shoulder mobility is the cause of me slighty hollowing at the top position
🙌
My favorite is the "empty coffee cup-up"
Mate hands down THE BEST video I’ve ever seen on this topic. Nailed every single detail. Community will truly appreciate this one 💙 - Gabo
💯👊🏽🙏🏽✌🏽🦍
Gabo love your videos man!
You two are among the best things to happen to calisthenics
True
This is a great topic. ALSO would be great to discuss the same for push ups. Pros and cons of neutral spine or hollow body.
Good idea, would really like to see such a video!
I thought he had some info on this already posted somewhere. If I remember correctly, the consensus was to retract the scapula on the way down, and then protract at the top.
Hollow body all day. By engaging the glutes you will gain a better core stability and when coming up, hunching the back by contracting the abs and protracting the scapulae will allow you to develop the ab muscles and will make the exercise much, much harder. If you want to see these queues in action, just type on youtube "gymnast push-ups" and watch Dan Jeong's video. All these said, good luck exercising and embrace them gains! 💪
Depends on how you load them. If you do weighted pushups with a belt over the midback, your center of mass shifts and keeping a PPT is somewhat counterproductive for the following reasons:
1. The belt will slip towards your butt.
2. With your COM being shifted forward, you will immediately feel that the optimal technique is a slight hip pike and decline orientation of the torso.
Main takeaway is that the nature of the exercise dictates the technique. And weighted pushups are a no-brainer if you want to get stronger at calisthenics
Push ups are cardio dogshit exercise.
I've been using hybrid technique and didn't even realize that.
It's always pleasure to watch your videos.
Based on what he's saying the hybrid form seems like a very natural way for your body to optimize the resistance curve of the pull. It's what I've always done by default on weighted pullups without even thinking about it. I always knew my form was different on weighted pullups versus bodyweight, but now I know why.
Yeah, I’ve never really analysed my form, but I’d say I definitely picked up a hybrid technique from some tips I got from an athleanX video ages ago. It just seems like a more comfortable style, especially when you’re a bigger guy, pulling over a hundred kilos.
This is maybe my 15th time watching this VOD, and honestly, the only difference I see between hollow and hybrid is the anterior core bracing, which I've never considered a critical part of a hollow-body pull up anyway. So yeah, I guess I've been doing hybrid all along.
And really, the difference between arch and hollow = how much are you obsessing over the scapula and turning it into a row.
If it feels like a row at the top, its an arch pull-up. Otherwise, its "hollow" or "hybrid."
This is just my gym-bro brain trying to make sense of this. I welcome anyone to challenge what I'm saying here.
Was literally searching up difference between hollow v arched.
Thanks FitnessFAQs
this helped for sure!
This is the longest 4 minute video I've seen 😂
Great video, you are making my days better with these educational videos. I started to work again on my body before summer, now in much better shape than last year. Exercising can be hard sometimes but It always makes me feel better. Last year I had almost 400 lbs in body weight. One day I just started moving more, then slow running then I started doing weighted exercises and I was eating clean by following meal plan I got from site Next Level Diet. Today I have 250 lbs and I am happy like I never been in my life.
Hey man can you share it?
Very interesting take on this bodyweight staple. I personally use the arch as my preferred go-to option, but I'm eager to use the hollow version as this movement will surely expose weak areas in the kinetic chain. The sooner I identify these, the sooner I can correct them. Weighted calisthenics never lets you down, man. No matter your level. Keep it up and greetings from Spain, Daniel 💪
Great work explaining this concept. Hybrid has always been my natural movement pattern for the pull up, but I haven't seen anyone break it down like this and give it validation. Thank you.
Interesting. This made me realize that what I've typically been doing is arched pullups but then somewhat involuntarily switching to hybrids towards the end of the set as fatigue sets in. I knew the form difference between arched and hollow but didn't consider the biomechanical advantages and disadvantages of each. This makes a lot of sense.
for how long are you already working out?
Ive been doing the same thing. Starting out arched, and “Cheating” at the end of my set by doing hollowed reps. I am going to work on these intentionally
@@kyleolin3566 let us know how it’s going!
Awesome to see Timo in the video. He has been a big source of inspiration over the years
As old as the pull up is, this managed to still bring an immense amount of new insight to the movement. Great breakdown
Pull-ups are legendary :)
Great video. Really appreciate the break downs.
Thanks amazimg stuff! Best explanation
Great video...thanks for the in depth info
Fantastic explanation putting practice into visualization.
Awesome tips with the pull-up. I am getting more out of my workouts for sure.
You're a great coach and absolute beast of a man . Great example!
So many gold nuggets in this video, great stuff 💪💪
amazing words! thank you
My natural way of doing pullups is hybrid. As I have never heard/ seen anyone mention it as a valid technique in my 3.5 years of Calisthenics, only Hollow vs Arched, I assumed I was doing it wrong and that it was bad form. I have tried to force one or the other, but neither feels so good as the hybrid movement. I am happy that you made this video.
Learn something everyday. Thank you
Super video Daniel!!🙏 This will be my technical focus to optimize performance. Thank you!
I tremendously appreciate the hybrid tip. I had been so laser focused on my hollow form that my range of motion had shortened. Had a great 1st set of hybrids. Subbed.
Flawless technique. Thank you for that video.
Amazing thank you 🙏
awesome breakdown and video. learned so much man. appreciate these over ur shorts, keep it up!!
yes it's crazy how much we can learn in only 5 minutes right?
Fucking love it. Next level shit bro, 10/10 stuff here and totally accessible even for the laymen
Cool video, thanks!
This is my first time seeing your channel and I absolutely loved this video. The information was insightful with a clear and concise presentation. Thanks for the video!
love the "choose wisely" - pressure you create :-D
haha yes
This video will put an end to the pull-up form debate! Best breakdown so far!
true! it's crazy good
This help thank you!
Amazing explanation 🙏🏻
I recently bought your programs! Looking forward to start with them rings 💪🏽
Man I love watching you man ican see all the muscles moving 👍🏽😎
Excellent video💪
I cant not subscribe with a video of this much perfection and attention to detail!
love your videos bro 🔥
Bloody hell. Great analysis. Ive noticed myself doing all of the aforementioned. Definitely notice myself switching to hybrid when shit gets tough
Perfect Video!!!
Really good video
Love your stuff, I use hybrid for weighted and single arm negatives, strength focused (didn't really know that until this video. Later in a session I use Arch because I want to target my upper back and I hope to improve my posture being 6ft2 and working on a computer. I've also been using your Face pull technique on rings as a finisher. Thank you bro for the depth of knowledge I've been watching for over 6 years.
Super underrated video, this has everything explained in such great yet concise detail. I hope that in another video the advantageous positions of motion can be described for when certain muscle groups are shifted throughout the movement and when it would be disadvantageous or even prone to injury to fail to do the motions correctly for all three styles.
Ppppppppppppppppppppp
Thank you master 💓
Great !
Great Topic
Interesting, never considered this. I’ve only been doing both hollows and arch I train them both but didn’t realize hybrid was a thing. Thanks!
Wow I didn't expect this level of depth. You did an awesome job!
he gave us all the information
Good stuff!
Top notch video! I love your passion for calisthenics and calisthenic teaching! Keep it up. ☺️
he helps a lot of people with it!
Apparantly I've been trying to "fix" my hybrid to arch since the past month
and how does it go?
I've switched to arched recently. Just trying to put some muscle on and get my reps up. Definitely going to start including hybrid into my workouts though
how many can you do?
This video is simply amazing. I’ve been looking for this sort of information for a very long time. You just earned a subscriber.
he gives so good information!
Every video I am learning new ways
Really good explanation
Great video! I do not usually comment but this deserved it
this is one of the best channels i swear
This is a great video. As a handstander and yogi, ive really only started working pulls and back more last year due to a shoulder injury. As a handstander, the hollw position in the upper part has felt the most natural. At the same time, ive been struggling to keep the hollow position in the bottom and starting from it. This hybrid pull which seems what ive been doing makes alot of sense and explains why ive been started arched but switching over to L or just straight when coming up.
Now I dont feel as worthless during the pulls since ive been under the impression that a "real" pull is done hollow all the way. Got a lot of strength left to build since my surgery in april. Started with 2 clean pulls during rehab i august, up to 8 clean pulls with maximum disengage at the bottom and touching chest to bar on top position. At 10 clean pulls its time to start working for a muscle-up :)
Thank you for great content!
Really good video. I recently began working on perfecting my pull up technique to optimise strength gains and every time I'd watch world class athletes they're seem to be using strange technique. And it didn't match what id see in RUclips tutorials. This is the only video showing this. Thank you
I'm glad I watched this. I don't know where but at some point I picked up that "arching = better" and have been doing it ever since.
I feel like I’ve always struggled thinking I was doing it “wrong” if I came hollow at the top of the pull up. So glad I came across this video.
Pure knowledge
Great quality video, it has everything that you need to know and best of all, it's less than 5 minutes
yeah he values our time!
Wow why no one ever talked about this kind of pull ups??? I do them with arched back personally but i am looking forward to attempt this hybrid pull up.And i was wondering gow to do weighted pull ups thank you so much for all these information
Bro you are absolutely JACKED
You literally took from my mouth what I pass on to my students during personal training. Nice video!
A big big thank you
You are the best 💪 your routine or your theory must say 👍been enjoying much with the work out & the results are just amazing .. Thank you Fitness FAQs for the hard work that you done ..
This video is so good that even other big calisthenics channels came here to praise it. Kudos
👍I actually just did the hybrid variation in my training today.
awesome! have you done it consciously or was it coincidence?
I like how you don't bullshit us and get straight to the point
GREAT TOPIC CHOICE
I am excited to watch this because I do both and I have no idea either way
my god the strength is crazy. people that do rings always amazed me
I was really stuck with this. I always tried to start with a hollow position. It was a real struggle to engage my back muscles. This has been the case for a couple of years now.
After my experience, this video makes a lot of sense. Solved my problem. Thanks a lot.
happy to hear that your problem is solved!
Hi Daniel may I ask you to do a dedicated video on the hybrid pull-up
Finally! You simply closed this ongoing debate. Thank you.
Good vid
Ive always been able to do more hollow body, but when i started doing arched my shoulders definitely felt healthier and upper mid back/rear delts deffo developed more.
Thank you for the analysis. I normally do the hollow version since i got to know that a pull up is not simply pull yourself up without paying attention to the form. The reason is that hollow body version on the one hand looks more awesome to me because it looks more controlled and stiff (i know that this must not be the case ;)!) and is more of like a gymnast style. And on the other hand i like the activation of the abdominal muscles. I think a have done a significant part of my core workout already when performing in the hollow body style... Also i'm not the chasing-reps-type - at least most of the time :P. So i will try the hybrid way soon :D!
Damn this perfect form nice to watch.
great video
Conteúdo interessante...só agrega.👊🏻💪🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I learned a lot from this video
After having done your 6 week 20 pull-up program, followed by progressively increasing weighted pull-ups, I can say that I was doing hollow body with body weight only and hybrid with weighted pull-ups instinctively. I notice the need to want to utilize more biceps to get my chin over the bar as weight increases though. From a strength perspective it doesn’t matter how you move the weight, but from a muscular recruitment perspective, form is everything to target the right areas.
Is hybrid pull up the best for muscular recruitment?
I’d love to see a video on gripping the pull up bar too
This video is superior
Just do whichever you want.Don't stop doing it.As long as you keep doing it, you will find the best way yourself.
Jeff Cavaliere told me to do hollow body so that's what I've been training, but I'll try hybrid now!
I actually like the arched pull-up, however when doing back isolations with machines I use hollow body. I’m glad that he touches on this because I don’t think it’s talked about enough
I mostly do hollow right now my focus from the beginning has been training to pull primarily with my arms, my goal is to continue to build up my forearms and bicep strength and muscle. I just hit a personal best 13 rep set of rock solid chin ups.
I'm currently training the arched variant. Still can't get my chest all the way to the bar but I have a setup that allows me to step up the remaining 5cm or so, so I just do negatives on the top part, hoping to get to full ROM with strict form soon!
Huge thank you for always providing amazing quality ressources for free, whenever I'm not sure about the correct form for a certain exercise or a good progression for a certain skill, your channel is my first source of information.
Did you eventually get the high pull ups ? And how ?
@@TriplethePower154 yeah, I get around 4-5 clean chest to bar reps now. Just like I described, pull up as far as I could, lifted myself up the last couple cm, then slow controlled negative all the way.
i think i have been doing the hybrid when my goal is to crank out as many reps as possible, now i know why xD
Lots of knowledge in under 5 minutes!
I just did a set focusing on starting arched at the bottom and hollowing at the to and those were the smoothest pull-ups I’ve ever done
Good points. It fun to play around with tricks until you strap enough weights around your waist. Then it is battle mode, what matters then is chin cleanly over the bar. I have found that the hybrid movement is both safe and efficient, as you say.
How true, how true!
