Thanks for the vids, I'm spreading the word and hopefully those subs keep growing. One note I'd like to make (perhaps there's a question in here somewhere) is that your single arm hangs are VERY impressive. I'm not in the shape I once was but I'm usually able to handle most of the stuff on the channel (I'm 40yoa, 6'3" 206lbs) but that single arm hang with the rotation is TOUGH. My best "hang-time" (double overhand/pullup grip) recently was 1 min 18 sec...but that's a STRUGGLE for me. I work in healthcare and I've been amazed at some of the patients ability to perform 60 second plus hangs well into their 60's. But, I have found that I really struggle with the single arms. I think in a previous vid you were doing them standing on the box and just easing into the hang, I suppose I'll start there. I guess a question would be for your clients in their 40's what's a good goal for a double grip and single grip "hang time?" (maybe a good way to get feedback competition in the comments as well?) I feel like that single arm you're doing is a LOT harder than most people realize. Anyways, great content as usual. Best wishes from the states!
Appreciate the comment as always. Some great questions man, got me thinking a lot. Hopefully I answer all of them. The benchmarks for time was hard as it’s so variable depending on body mass, thickness of bar, male v female etc. The fact your hitting 1 min 18 @ 206 Lbs BM is impressive. Am 163 Lbs so it’s always going to favour me. That said I think 60s is minimum target, 1-2 mins good, 2+ is happy days. Single arm 10 seconds is a great starting point, 30 seconds is good/ great and 60+ is excellent/ elite! Great to hear patients you work with 60 plus years old can hit 60s on double arm hang. If I can still hit that at that age then I would be happy. Single arm is a lot harder than it looks for sure including the rotation. Box, band assisted or finger assisted is best to develop strength in that area. Keep at it man, sounds like your smashing it 💪
