Passive or Active Hang in Pull-ups? 

I do both. The passive hang by itself or while doing a pull-up was essential for improving my shoulder injuries.

I do pull-ups wherever and however. I'm a rugged worker and love having my arms being able to pick up crap from any awkward angle.

I woke up this morning with a rotator cuff tear, I have to leave pullups for now😤😔

Passive.. take the opportunity to work on your scapula control and strength. You can never have too much of that!🔥🔥🔥👏👏👏

Thanks for making this video Can you also talk about the grip and imporance of the thickness of the bar?

Thanks for this Simon. I have seen so many videoes now complicating this endlessly and have been no wiser for a long time. I will do passive hang longer muscle movement seems better...

I perform way better lowering to passive hang each rep. Active hang feels a little bit odd to me, especially straightening the arms while keeping tension in my scapulas. I do both anyway.

When I Deadhang between reps, I feel the stretch of my lats and really feel like my back is engaged, but i find it more challenging to reach failure that way

Thanks man!

Really helpful information. Thank you.

Depends what your goal is and what works for you.

Its suppose to feel uncomfortable, because it’s harder. The lat stretches all the way which is the best for muscle growth and strength. Passive IS the real pullup.

People don't like the full hang because they can't pull themselves back up. I watched gym guys try while I don't go to the gym and can do it

Passive hang, it’s better for shoulder mobility. Mobility is more important than high reps. I have tried active hang over the years, but active hangs never look like full reps when I go back and review my videos. During the set, active hangs with arms locked do feel like full reps though, oddly.

Passive. We’re great apes after all

I don’t know why but I hate the shrug because of how the pulling feels

What is this pull up stand called... Can anyone post a link where can I buy it

Thanks for the video, may I ask you what type of bar are you using in this video?

Hey, what's the name of this pull up support?

haven't done passive pullups in years and all this extra weight don't help either
