How To Use Resistance Band for Pull Up Progression - WOD Nation coach Barry @ CrossFit Chiang Mai 

Yes! Even has the girl!!

With a perfect response so people don't waste their time with other vids! TY

@@DJ-FishTopher You’re welcome bro, Craig was My old account until friends in the neighbourhood caught onto My conspiracy theory posts.

Echo that

@@DJ-FishTopher you

How do you even work toward doing a one arm pushup? Do you just start by doing lots of 2-arm pushups? Is your body positioned differently, for balance, like leaning toward the ground with the hip that's on the side of the arm you are using. Can you do them with either arm?

@@stephenrothman6058 I started with working my way up to a true standard push up, once I was able to do them correctly, I just started with like 3 one arm push ups with my right arm, I also remembering I fell on my face, however, every other week I would add a push up, within about 6 months, I was able to do 15, then another 6 months, I got stronger and was able to do 28, but that was pushing it, now I do on average 20. Yes my body is positioned a bit differently for balance, and yes I can do either arm. Left or right.

Me too! ANW Jessie Graff had a demo on her instagram. Boom! First pull up in three days!!!

southernchelz What demo?

Evil Genius They're only a hindrance if you can do a pullup with good form. If you can't then it is probably the best thing you can do since you can get the benefits of the exercise and eventually work your way up to not having to use the bands.

I've been doing lowering and hanging for 4 months. At the start I just dropped down without any resistance because I was too weak and heavy. I still cant go up at all if I start from down. Finally caved and ordered a blue heavy band today.

The truth is, you should always try to start with a couple of the heaviest sets to failure, after warmup. Which may be bodyweight chin-ups or pull-ups or even with additional weight. Reps mostly 6-8 if you want muscle. Resistance bands are great for speed work (ie. power) or to give you a few more reps per workout for hypertrophy.

A bike ride or walk with a backpack with gymnastic rings and resistance bands in it to have a workout where ever you can hang 'em. Street workout or backwoods.

yeah they were doing pretty good keeping it professional then the camera man went off script

Agreed! I was quite a bit more heavy in high school than I am now... I could never do 1 pull up back then and just struggled and struggled... these would have been great

too bad that reebok is owned by adidas

Nike top.. free ADS!

Who gives a shit lol

sorry i know this is 3 years late, how did it go? i'm also a climber (just started) and i was wondering how often i should do pullups

No, band colors vary.

autumn1231 i tore an a lower abdominal hanging on the bar

@@vincec727 ouch that sounds bad. hope you're doing better.

that band is gonna slip and slam you in the face or in the nuts just do negatives

status update? be honest lol

​@@Newtttton I got the WODFitter ones. I started out using BOTH of the two heaviest bands, one on right foot and one on left (minimal weight left for me to lift myself). Could do three set of 10 like that. Then went to Blue (easiest) band for all three sets. Then green (second easiest) for first set and blue for next 2, then green for two sets and blue for one then green for 3 sets of 10. I had gotten around to using middle level band (purple if I remember?) for one set of ten and then one green and one blue for last set. At that point I was able to do around 4 pull-ups unassisted (palms facing away - harder way), if fresh. All that took around 3 months. So not bad. Then I fell off the wagon. Not sure why. Coronavirus put an end to my gym trips (I'm 64), but I had a bar at home, just seemed to lose focus. Also was selling house and moving. After moving I have been more focused on finding places in new city to play soccer, and on running and biking the many trails available here, than on my strength training. I moved to a building in Redmond, WA with a pretty decent gym, but no assisted pull-up machine though. I plan to re-start using the gym regular pull up bar and my assist bands - though I'm sure I will have lost a lot of what I gained. When I pulled out the old Wodfitters bands, the heaviest one immediately broke. They had been working fine when I was using them actively, and I think it was from sitting in the closet for 9 months stiffening up. I bought another set, going with Wodfitters again. Will start again soon.

How can u use these bands without a partner?

@@Javiertorres-k10 I have moved now and don't have my own bar anymore (but now have a gym downstairs). Anyway, I put an ordinary kitchen step stool about 18 inches away from the space right under the bar and bands. Standing on that, I'd put my foot into the bands and grab the bar and do the pull-ups. The step stool was close enough to get me up for the first rep, but far enough to way not to interfere with my later reps. For safety, I also had a 6-8 inch flat platform on the ground beneath the bar. I used something I had around that was designed for agility training (step up, step down, etc). Oh it's a long story and you probably don't need it. I have bad arthritis in my left thumb and could not grip the bar with that hand. So I used a special assistive device that has a hook strapped to your wrist, so the weight starts on the wrist, not the hand. But it's not always easy to get the hook off of the bar, and I worried a bit about working to exhaustion and then being stuck hanging with no way to reach the ground or the step stool, but no way to disconnect from the bar. I found that I could stand on the 6-8 inch stable platform on tiptoes and take the weight off of my arms, which enabled me to use my good arm to remove the hook on my bad hand from the bar. It was exactly the right hight that I could do ten reps without touching it or raising my legs, but then when I needed it, reach it on tip toes. Anyway, when you ask how without an assistant, I assume you are referring to getting into the band in the first place. Some people might be able to just jump up and grab the bar and then lower their feet into the band. But if that's too tough, my step stool method should work.

Smurfinz if it breaks, it will just fall. But if it comes off you’re foot, it will snap back and cause some pain.

It really depends on how strong you are. We always recommend buying 2 or 3 smaller ones which you can mix and match as you get stronger.

Wtf?

3 times a week. Reps depend on your own level and which band you choose.

@@AnalyticalChick thank you very much

@@giannagian5290 I do 4 with the fattest band because that's the best I can do. I intend to get up to 10 reps a set before I move down a band size. I also do 3 sets. I do them in rounds-4 pull up drops with the fattest band, 4 tricep dip drops with the next lowest band, 10 inverted pull ups under a waist high or so bar, 10 lat raises with a light tube handle band, 10 knee push ups, 12 squats with a medium band behind my neck and under my feet, a little bit of cardio usually with a jump rope, then I do another round. I do 3 rounds total. I go to the park 3 times a week to do this. When there was a thunderstorm one time, I did an arm dumbell workout from RU-vid (ReggieB fitness). I would think a guy can start with something more challenging than what I do, but that's what I put together for myself. If you do once a week, you maintain. You need to train 2 to 4 times a week to make gains. Some people do literally every other day, so 3 days one week, 4 the next. I always take Saturday as a rest day, so I do 3 days a week-Usually Sunday, Wednesday, Friday (because I don't have to run to work on Sunday and work out harder, so I take the extra day to recover.)

@@AnalyticalChick Thank you for the information. I do 3 time's a week cross training not crossfit but similar exercises with amrap,emom etc. I make also 2 times Pilates and 1 EMS. I have strong legs and i want to make strong the upper body too. I will try your tips and see, hope to do something.

From what I've heard, these actual help you a lot more than a pull up assist machine

😂😂😂

WIN

Shadowboxe sounds like just a resistance band for others exercises.

Shadowboxe When you buy a resistance band for pull ups or calisthenics, you have to make sure the resistance band says it's a 41-inch loop.

HeWhoChills Thank you. I'll get on it.👍

+HeWhoChills Shweet 👍

43 kg damn

You don't need any bands, man, start with australia pullups, see on chris heria thanx channel for example

I think if you can do 2-3 pullups with perfect form, its good enough to build strength. go for band only if cant do pull ups at all. do 3 clean, add couple of jump and lowering ones.

She's struggling even with the assistance of a band and 2 arms. I wouldn't call that legit hardcore yet.

Probably because she knew what kind of comments were going to be made on youtube

I think it's just,that Thai's don't smile as much a people think :))

cuz she's a young girl who thinks she the queen of the world

It was the 137th take...WOD is a perfectionist and a taskmaster ;)

That’s not the point The point of having and using the band in a repetition is to assist in moving the body upwards No one ever said it was supposed to be easier the higher you go On the contrary; it should be more difficult as you pull up and you should be training to use more of your own strength as you reach the top and less help from band That’s the whole idea YOU generate the force needed to pull yourself up; the band only helps you get moving

You can use lighter and lighter bands. Once you are efficient with the lightest band you can put your knee in instead of your foot, so you get even less help. From there, you can even put your back inside and against the bottom loop instead of your knee.
