Good stuff, as usual. By watching I’ve Realized that I could make little changes to the way I’ve been doing my many of exercises. Now I’m getting better results with less injuries. Thanks for the video
Hey Phil, what’s your opinion on chin-ups pertaining to shoulder health? Do you incorporate them at all? Love the videos! Been watching for well over a year. Amazing watching the growth of your athletes ,and you as a name. 💪
@@PhilDaruStrong thank you for the reply. I m very limited in supination, due to bilateral distal biceps surgeries. Chins maybe something I need to let go. I have always incorporated lots of pull/chin -ups. Also, your pointer on preventing shoulder anterior tilt will benefit my shoulder health (multiple surgeries) greatly! I very much appreciate your excellent content. Thanks again. Keep kicking ass!
Thanks 4 the content. I like the detail in "correct technique" as well as the "What NOT to do." It would be great if u could do a video on common errors you've seen in technique performing specific exercises, maybe some correctional stretches and exercises u recommend to reverse or prevent said mistakes.
Great video and actually you explained to me why I had pain in my right shoulder yesterday as I did pull ups 😅😅😅 many thanks I will be careful about my elbows in the future Big regards from Germany ✌🏼💚
Great tutorial very well explained I am not a weight lifter,I am into grappling and after class I do 10 pull ups -10 push up for 5 sets and 1 min rest in between 4 times a week
Coach, I do my pull ups like you just demonstrated. I have a similiar body type to you. (I am not as jacked as you are, but not too far off). I get slack from people saying I should be going higher on my pull ups. Chin over the bar, collar bone area, etc. Without forward, shoulder rotation. What do I say to them?
perfect video would be-how to get loose shoulders for boxing after a lifetime of chasing bench gains then switching to martial arts focus. ty for the vid!
This is always funny to me because if I were to actually NOT lockout people would say I was half repping and when I do lockout people are afraid of elbow issues. Here’s my thoughts on it, yes in time could it cause an issue yes if not taken into account a proper mobility and restorative method of recovery. Biggest takeaway I want everyone to have with this video is know what your prerequisites are and make sure you work to where your body wants to go. I appreciate the support! 🙏🏼🙏🏼
Love the channel and excellent content as usual. That said, I would suggest a tried and true CrossFit workout that guarantees similar muscle endurance demands and also provides one with a metabolic challenge. That workout is a variation of "Cindy". It consists of 5 pull-ups, 10 pushups, and 15 jumping air squats each round. The goal is to complete as many rounds as possible in 20 minutes. The critical point is to do all pull-ups dead hang (no kipping like one sees 99% of CrosFitters doing) and to make the form of your pushups steady and correct. That means elbows tucked in by your side and lowering yourself until your chest and nose actually touch the ground/floor and pushing up until your hands almost leave the floor from the exertion. The jumping air squats also ensure that your metabolic heart rate won't get much any relief when you're not on the bar or doing a pushup. Be warned that to get 20 rounds in that time you must pace yourself and yet at the same time not take any - I want to stress this point - any breaks longer than about 5 seconds. You know you're in great shape when you can get 20 complete rounds done in the 20 minutes allowed. The first time I did this I barely completed 9 whole rounds and at the time I could do 20 unbroken dead hang pull-ups with one or two more "in the tank." The first three sets were easy but the pushups killed my pace. By round #4, I was breaking up the ten pushups into 5-3-2. I was shocked to see how weak I was with pushups (it was especially confusing because I was able to do fifty pushups unbroken two days before). By the next round it was 3-3-3-1. By round 7 it was 3-3-2-1-1. I was able to complete all the pull-up and air squat cycles unbroken but the pushups were humbling, to say the least. Best wishes to everyone with this challenge!!
I needed this Coach Phil. I have had many rotator cuff issues and I can see from this video I need to increase my "pull" training and decrease the "push" training.
Thanks Phil love this recipe, daum you are obsessed with excercise always. On the top looking for the best workout like bruce lee,keep up the good work and research!!
Oh snap.. I've been using this variation at 3:32 for about a year, focusing the shoulder blades and full back muscles and shoulders mostly. I really didn't know it was bad. I use it as part of my calisthenics workouts. Bless you for your knowledge! I'll stop doing that shit. No wonder my wrists and shoulders always hurt on top of lifting car batteries and stuff at work all day long. You're really turning me around.
as long as you bring your elbows in a bit youre fine, the 45 degree angle is only aplicable at close (ish) grip if ur going wide flaring a bit is ok just not all the way
I'm not going to lie. I do 100 situps. 100 ab rollers. 100 pushups. But then in the pullups I keep reaching muscle failure at thirty pullups in the finish.
The pull-up explanation isn't 100% accurate. The idea is to work the lats, getting the greatest stretch and contraction. The way of doing this IS to have the elbows go as far in front of your body as possible and then bringing them back behind your body as far as possible. Being in the externally rotated state is a good variation but it's not wrong if you are not. Also, if you don't want to use as much bicep when doing the way I'm describing, simply try to keep your arms locked in close to a 90 degree bend and pull with your elbows for the contraction and when extending, allow your shoulders to release to a shrug so you get the maximum stretch. You don't have to let your arms straighten when extending if your primary focus is lats, keep them locked in and bent.
Phil you kind of sound like a miami boy with your accent. Is my assumption correct? I dig the video btw. Especially right now with this pandemic since I don't feel comfortable going to the gym, so those are good pointers for calisthenics.
What is happening with push ups on the fist . It should be different positions of the shoulders ??? I've spent so many years doing Push - ups on my fist and now if I trying make on the flaty hands , I feel pain in my wrists .
with the push-up.... how do you incorporate the shoulder protraction? do you separate? i.e. push-up then "push-up++" or sort of integrated into one movement?
Phil your on point bro, I'm in my fifties and I have been at this thing sense I was 23. When it comes to those pulls and push movements it's the little things that people can tweak in order to build properly. Keep up the good work.
They are good for helping find a job but not a huge fan of all of the certs since they are mostly bias towards outdated training methods CPPS, FRC, and KMS are all solid certs from established coaches that’s been in the game.
So should i add the extra rowing/back work in the same workout or in a extra Session? Like after 5 supersets in the 5/10 fashion should i do some type of rowing afterwards for like 5 Sets of 10-15? Sry if i missed that part but english is not my home language.
Remember this is a simple at home type of workout but if you do have a weight room save this until after you finish your weight training as a accessory superset
