The pull bar in my gym is so darn short that I’m always forced to tuck my legs back at the bottom, it sucks because I’m used to engaging my abs and keeping the legs in front. So mostly, none of these helpful tricks will workout for me. My gym doesn’t have a weight belt either, not always a fun thing to belong to a small town with mediocre gyms.
@@MichaelEckert I actually do them with iron dumbbells, sure they hurt quite a bit, but I’ve gotten used to them, and they are helping me so far. Thanks for your reply and I love following your content focused on pull ups - something that not many people are good at. Thanks!
Test your 1 rep max, with good form (chin above the bar and little to no kipping) and then use linear progression. So let's say my 1 RM is 25 Kg + Body weight (65 Kg), take 80% of that which will be often times an 8 rep max and build up to 12 reps, then up the weight by 2.5-5 Kg and repeat.
Hey please feel free to respond or not, but i noticed that your shoulders are lopsided, but you don't seem bothered by it. Is that something you can/want to fix or not. I have a similar issue so i was wondering
