      With a 12 hr rest between the two reps? LOL. But hey, I see a lot of 'challenges that use a "per day" goal. I have no doubt that it works.

      What does being flexible have to do with claiming that I can go from 13 pullups today to 26 pullups tomorrow. Bs is bs, even if coming from a contortionist

  • @nhojnhoj6485

    Great advice. If you are a beginner, this could definitely double your pullups. If your advanced, you might get 1 or 2 more reps. That doesn't sound like a lot but believe me, when you're doing 30+ strict pullups, it can take weeks or months just to add 1 or 2 reps. So this video is gold.

      71 yrs old here, was doing 7 pullups in my 50's, 9 chinups. Now after four surgeries, back down to 4-5. Goal is 7 again at 215. Looking forward to trying Smashwerx's ideas.

    • @Sports--X
      @Sports--X 2 года назад

      Proper stance (can't stress this enough) pushup is the gateway to pullups. Plus its easier to learn body rigidity and form sustainment in horizontal position exercises. Pullups is the next level.

    The tip about not unloading at the bottom completely is of paramount importance. I went from 1 pull up to 10-12 range but injured my shoulders bc I would hang incorrectly like trevor showed. Did not understand why I was developing so much pain in my anterior shoulder til now. Makes so much sense. Thank you for making this video!

    This is the best pull-up tutorial I've ever watched on RUclips. I just started prioritizing pull-ups to get beefier wings. I weigh 230 but feel much more confident I'll be able to master them after watching this vid. I am guilty of the shoulder/ear problem in the bottom of the movement.

  • @higherresolution4490
    @higherresolution4490 Год назад +4

    Wow, that was a super helpful video. I'm just starting to build back my pull-ups now at age 73 / 6'3" / 216 lbs. Your system is working fantastically. I'm also using it for dips. So far, real good. I'm also going to use it for push-ups using rings. Being able to see light clearly at the end of the tunnel has done wonders for my enthusiasm and self-confidence.
    You described beautifully the proper body positioning and kinetics for pull-ups. You're in sinct with the gymnasts I follow on RUclips. My problem is that at 6'3", there are no bars high enough in any of the gyms around here to where I can actually assume that position, especially with pointed toes. This is a real problem I'm yet to solve.

    This is huge for me because I know how important they are.
    Now, I can start making progress to where I can build up from 10! Thanks brother!!!

  • @kylerrichmeier5892
    @kylerrichmeier5892 Год назад +1

    The que I've always heard whether on bench push-ups or pull-ups, is to externally rotate the hands. Twist and break the bar. Same for squat, rotate the feet externally sets the acl into integrity and when slack shows up it pushes yoir knees to the side 😊

  • @Oh6Torch
    @Oh6Torch Год назад

    These are the cleanest and most beautiful, picture perfect pull-ups I have every witnessed. I have seen ABSOLUTE trash from people who claim they can do 25, 30, etc… pull-ups. The first 3 are decent then the chin either doesn’t go over the bar or they don’t come all the way down with arms straight. Thank you so much for sharing!!!! Subbed!

    • @herc1305
      @herc1305 3 года назад +1

      I don't really agree with Trevor on dead hangs being bad since it's widely recommended to do them for shoulder health. Not to mention many people start out trying to do pull ups by doing scapula pull ups, which is dead hang and then depress scapula into an active hang. I'm 185lbs, not really heavy, but not lite either.
      I do drop down to a dead hang for most of my reps. I did get a shoulder pain from pull ups. I have a bad habit of pulling up right when I grasp the bar and I think I did some of those without first depressing the scapula to an active hang before pulling up. I usually do each rep for a set at a slow tempo, but sometimes I go at a faster tempo and I think when I do that, some of my reps I probably started pulling up as I am depressing the scapula.
      I have since made sure that I have depressed the scapula before pulling up and if I do a faster tempo, I just go down to an active hang. My shoulder pain is mostly gone and have returned to doing pull ups for over a week now.

      @corysturgis6660 3 года назад

      I can feel feel the muscles let go when I hang. Everything he says makes sense to me
      I watched videos that said to hang to fix shoulder impingement. I'm sticking with Trevor's advice and not hanging to low.

I would be encouraged to go to a boot camp with this dude and learn in a outdoor setting.

    sounds like good advice. I tore something between my shoulder blades years ago doing pull ups with 15lbs weighted belt. now years later after not returning to the gym I can only do assisted . I know my form is sh*t but never got decent advice until now. my right should makes a sandy crunch sound as I go up too.

  • @ANTHONYPAOLICELLI
    @ANTHONYPAOLICELLI Год назад +3

    Try finding a pull up bar these days that enables you to hang straight up & down totally. That is where 75-95% of these mistakes begin! Bent knees, legs in front all these different angles & body stresses etc need to be addressed because the majority of workout equipment out there especially home equipment does not allow for this "perfect hang" so start there. Everything else in this video is accurate in terms of grip etc. But the fact remains that if your pull up bar does not allow you to freely hang straight up and down of which the majority of pull up bars on squat cages etc does NOT. You almost automatically develop improper pull up form & that is a real fitness equipment manufacturers crime in the same way many dip bars are actually spaced too far apart for an average persons body frame. But nobody talks about/addresses that either & so we have increased shoulder injuries & improper form with dips too & it is not our fault! So 1st rule of proper pull ups really is...HAVING/GRIPPING A PULL UP BAR HIGH ENOUGH THAT YOU CAN BE COMPLETELY HANGING VERTICALLY ON! That principle of having your but tight and your lower pelvis/back kidney area locked UNDER your chest or waist cage really is not fully happening correctly & easily unless you have a pull up bar that high & the majority of people do not nor do they have access to one all too often & nobody really honestly & truly addresses that nor the extreme wideness on most dipping stations either.

    2:07 I would like to see him do that “all day”
    These tips are pretty good for ensuring consistent quality reps, with proper technique which will produce better results with progressive overload overtime as compared to inconsistent, crappy technique pull-ups.
    But I would guess that for most people, the reason they are performing crappy pull-ups in the first place is because they lack the strength and skill to perform any quality repetitions. They just need a regression of the exercise and time to build up strength with proper form (Ex/ band assisted pull-ups).
    In reality these cues make the exercise harder for most people by ensuring there is no compensation with other musculature or modified technique.
    No one would be doubling their reps by TOMORROW with these technical cues. They would be more likely to cut their reps in half...
    Which is definitely better because they are using better technique! But the title and claims are pretty misleading. Adjusting your grip, keeping a stable torso, and cueing some bar-bending aren’t doubling anyone’s reps.

      It's just a figure-of-speech. Supposedly he can do 100 pullups in a row, so I'm sure throughout a day he could probably do a thousand, which I think could qualify as doing them "all day".
      P.S. People always use figures-of-speech that tend to exaggerate the truth, but they do so to make the point more clear.

I increase the chin and chest by 1 rep each week. I don't increase the power pullups(10/5 reps) to make sure each rep is full power.

    Excellent, excellent advice! My son will be doing his Candidate Fitness Assessment (CFA) for West Point Academy (USMA) is a month or less and he will use your advice to do it. I will post the video link here when he does it and see if he followed your advice to get your feedback. Thank you!
