Yeah, he's at a dead-hang or close to it for every rep. He should lock the top of the rep for a beat too just to really show the pull up who's the boss 😂
It's the only way pull ups should be done.. I always laugh when people post pull up videos where they keep their arms bent all the time. Like, there is a big difference between doing a pull-up and half a pull up...
@@Pepe-pq3om honestly the very bottom of the movement is the hardest. I know because I can do it like this multiple times too, its called using the stretch reflex. but if you stayed down there for a few seconds and tried to pull up its much harder because it requires immense shoulder stabilization. Not saying this isn't impressive, but if he somehow did it while pausing at bottom each time thats a different level
@@fatredditmod It says "cleaner" "than most". Step 1 Learn English. Step 2 Criticize others if you are weak but hope it'll make you look stronger to others. You skipped step 1.
@@georgepetrou501 Nope. I stopped training for it years ago but back then got good enough to hold my chin over the bar with one arm for over 10 seconds. I still workout but not trying to be as strong as possible like I was at the time I made this comment, nine years ago.
oh, well it's more like 13, but with each arm, your title makes it seem like it was 26 on ONE arm straight lmao...that said, this is STILL absolutely impressive. And it was apparently in the MIDDLE of your workout??? So you weren't even entirely at full strength when doing this. Sheesh, man!
@@JohnDoe-id5ih I would have said the title is misleading if he had dropped down between reps, but he didn't. I will go further and say this alternating style should be the standard for doing one-arm pullups.
Insane accomplishment.. HOWEVER that's definitely NOT 26 One Arm Pullups IN A ROW, because when you do one arm, THE OTHER IS RESTING... That's more like 1 set of 13 ALTERNATING ONE ARM PULL UPS (just like its counted for alternating bicep curls).
Crazy Strength! I can only do 24 regular pull-ups (at 215 lbs) Your pull-ups were very clean,.. though it was not 26 one arm pull-ups. It was 26 one arm pull-ups by alternating arms
That's only 2 more than I can do. Whoopsie, I forgot the 5. 25.......suddenly mine doesn't sound so impressive. lol In my experience, oing single sides have worked best as alternating sets. You're doing a great job.
Also prioritizing strength and mass on the upper torso without letting legs get too strong/heavy to lift. I have found if strength/weight is balanced across the body, acheiving more than 100% body weight on many motions is quite difficult. Fitness is a functional trade-off. Get too big, and running is difficult etc.
Amazing skills and strength, hw did you get to that? I guess it had taken you a few years to get to that. I trained one year with a single arm on a lat machine to get to one single one arm pull up on a bar, and I was already at six two arm pull ups with 35kg attached on me. Today I can barely do five pullups with 25kg weight on my body, that is how much I got out of shape in two years of not training. Do you have a video of your progression? Respect.
Hey man! Ive veen trying to work up to a 1 arm pullup for reps and im not sure what im doing wrong. Whats your routine for building up to those? Ive gotten my biceps very strong but maybe not the right head of bicep? I think it involves a lot of back as well though. Wanting to be able to do some of those. My weight is about 201
I want to leave a hilariously snarky comment to cover over my insecurity at never being able to do something like this, but I am overwhelmed and blown away and impressed into respectful silence. Well done sir, at life, and at winning the internet.
For some reason I thought he would do them on one arm only, still super impressive, I can barely do 20 pull ups with 2 arms, I tried 1 arm and that feels so far off
*physics has left the room* In all reality though what the hell. That genuinely is the most impressive gym feat I’ve seen in a while. How long did it take you to build up to that degree of strength?
Technically these would be chin ups right but this is nonetheless utterly insane. I suppose it's basically impossible to do a one armed "pull up" so this is what you get. What a beast.
I used to be able to do 20 on 1 arm (palms facing towards) when I weighed 70kg though I weigh about 85kg now and can only get to 10 and that is on a good day.
