Pullup Training Methods (Basic & Efficient) 

Serious Steph!! Looks like you did nucleus overload, 6 months is a long time too so I can see why the delts blew up. Good stuff and thanks for the feedback

@Khalid please tell us about your experience

Yessir,like you say "just be cold"

@@muneebanwar1982 I did this as well a few summers ago and my delts were popping, it only took three months to see a difference. I used to carry a fifteen around with me at the gym and do lateral raises between every set of every exercise. Also my traps got bigger somehow doing this as well, I might have been doing a little shrug every rep and accidentally grown those at the same time.

@@lostsoulsfuturekings did the muscle gains stay I've heard it can start to shrink after a few months if you stop doing it

I second this. A side view would be much appreciated.

I do like me some Whiterun.

Ah a man of culture I see

i realize it's pretty randomly asking but do anyone know of a good website to watch new movies online?

I also started to use the thumb over grip technique since I feel much stronger with it.

How much? like, any percentage increase in terms of reps or weight if it's weighted? i am SO willing to try that out, now, i mean pullups are one of my favorite lifts, to make it even better would be awesome..

Good stuff Zaki, glad you like the style

@TheDarknessOfVoid Nothing wrong with asking how much improvement it gives, though?... i literally jus did pullups today and am resting so i won't be able to try for 2 days lol

Loose Goose start doing greasing the groove till you can adapt to every day; the gains will be insane

@@Dillpickles66 Sounds fukin nice :)

Gotta love when some fantasy music is now coined as "Skyrim" music.

Feel like I’m doing a side quest

Yes, i second this 200%

Rings or bar?

420 EASY SATIVA I did it for about 4 months. When I finished middle school my mom got me a pull up bar and I used to crank out pull ups daily aswell as push ups.

lonewolf trucker I weigh 160 at about 12 percent body fat or 11 I can’t remember

What’s funny?

@@kingrebi1173 my back also got wayy wider when I started doing pull ups in 10th grade. I've always had poor clavicle width so doing pull ups helps me mask that

Hugo Retamoza 10x10 and max reps to 100 also if I got too fatigued I’d do it rest pause style

I appreciate that man, let's get back in strong and make all kinds. Wishing you the best, and keep me updated with your progress 💪👊

It will go up quick, just grease the groove every day

Lmao me with 7 pulls ups

@@trampflips101 everytime i grease the groove i NEVER get stronger... and I kno what im supposed to do... half max bunch of sets, etc... it NEVER EVER Works for me.

@@champ8288 Then why do you grease the groove only with high reps? Why don't you do weighted pull-ups? Pavel Tsatsouline (the guy who introduced the concept of greasing the groove to the world) said in a podcast that if your goal is to get to 20-25 strict pull-ups you don't have to go above 5 reps, ever. You can get to that level by purely training your strength, because strength helps in endurance (watch his interview/podcast with Tim Ferris). Do GTG with weighted pull-ups, and when 5 reps become easy, then increase the weight and start all over again. In your case don't get stronger with GTG because: - you don't rest enough - you work way too much (which A LOT of people do and you do it too because you said you do a "bunch" of half max sets....AND YOU DON'T HAVE TO DO A BUNCH). I never go above 5 sets per day when doing GTG, and I get A LOT of rest time between sets (1-2 hours minimum). - you don't do any weighted work. It's up to you to decide what you're doing wrong.

pure torture

@420 EASY SATIVA by taking bicep out of picture emphasis switches to lats. There will always be some contribution from biceps but its greatly diminished when the thumb is not gripping in its natural position. It has to do with the way we're wired.

Jetam Kesoutam overhand is better for wider lats, but underhand even tho usually easier can help widen the lat a bit more

@@simonplays2398 thanks for your answer, but this question is for Alex

@@jetamkesoutam2066 damn

Since Alex will never answer this I would say that the best variation is the one you're not doing.

People have been doing it for a long time.

I'd say they are equally good for it, pull ups are more for radio-brachialis, chins are better for flexors and hammer are better for brachialis, so it only really depends on which part of the forearm you want to develop the most, but you will still have to focus on them individually of course

I agree with Jeff on that one, you can’t really stabilize your shoulders in any way when you are just dead hanging, it can place more stress on rotator cuff muscles, labrum, etc. mainly a necessary tip for people with shoulders that like to act up or if people want to be extra cautious with injury

Don't read my name Yeah I tore a tendon in my right shoulder and since gets sore occasionally. I do dead hangs on the pull up bar to help my shoulder recover. The last 9 months I’ve been doing dead hang pull ups multiple times a week and my shoulder has never been healthier. Dead hang is defo good for shoulder health.

CRAWL my sole focus is strength so I can add 1.25kg/week w. 5x5. Completely agree tbo for hypertrophy etc 5x10 would be nuts

CRAWL I have passed the linear progression phase so performing 3x3 or workouts @85% every time would impede my recovery

CRAWL I never detailed my old workouts but back in the linear days RPT with 4-6rm, 6-8reps then 8-10 BW was on the money. I’ll still backoff now with 2x5 or 3x3 ~15kg less

cuz the weight makes it harder... I can only do bodywieght pullups.. my strength isn't strong enough to be able to lean back like that... If i do neutral grip, which i am a little stronger at, I CAN lean back and really hit lats better.. where you place the weight tho, will affect how well you can lean back.
