WANT MORE PULL UPS? THIS IS IT!
.
I said yesterday that I would put together the pull up program I used to go from ZERO to 103 strict pull ups, so here it is.
.
I read all of your comments yesterday and addressed the main issues that most of you are having and then gave you exactly how to fix them.
.
And at the end, I gave you the entire pull up system that works 100 percent of the time.
.
Let’s look at the common problems first:
.
Hack 1
Grip Orientation Issues (neutral, Supinated etc)
- Forced Rotates Hang: 2 minutes
.
Hack 2
Grip Weakness (causes forearm pain)
- Dead Hang No Support: 2 minutes
.
Hack 3
Bicep Pain
- Banded Tempo Curls: 3 x 15
- Dumbbell Hammer Tempo Curls: 3 x 15
.
Hack 4
Rounding Shoulders/Shoulder Pain
- Prone Floor Sweep: 4 x 10
- Banded Bicep Release: 2 minutes
.
Hack 5
Restricted Range of Motion
- Dumbbell Prayer: 2 minutes
.
Hack 6
Swinging (Shaky Midline)
- Plank: 2 minutes
- Side Plank Dips: 3 x 10
- Full Heel Pulse: 3 x 20
.
PULL UP ROUTINE!!!
.
Watch the video explanation because it would take me a small novel to explain it on here. If you have questions please ask. Leave me a truckload of comments on your pull up goals and when you plan on starting!!
.
I love you guys

    Progressive pull-up training works. I couldn't do do a single pull-up a year ago. Now, I can do sets of 20 and 15 comfortably, with 25 minute workouts doing 180+ pull-ups . My trainer, Glenn Chestman, had me do all of the things this guy says in preparation (forearms, biceps, joint strengthening, core strength, etc.) before he allowed me to attempt even one of them. Everything this dude is saying is true, but you gotta invest in the process slowly. Muscle endurance takes consistency and time. I'm only beginning. Oh yeah, I'm 50 years old, forgot to leave that part in there, not that it matters.
  • @artvin1001
    Great advise, Trev.....Step by step to guard against injury....You do man. I'm 73, started with this last year and now do 20 for a warm up.

  • Love this dude. So glad he turned the comments back on. Thanks for the generosity Trevor!
  • @dayytube
    This is the ultimate instructional video which dwells on all the rudiments to do a pull up.Thanks a million for the advice.
  • @YilmazVurucu
    I don't normally comment under youtube videos, but when i do, it's to say, friggin a. The best pull up breakdown ever.
  • @tylermorgan9809
    This was a quality breakdown of so many varying issues WITH solutions. I’ve experienced many of them. Gotta come back to this video in the future. Great stuff.
  • Wonderfully comprehensive without dumbing it down with the words. Use the words and let the audience look up any they don't understand. A really good video. Totally subscribed just on this. I'm a climber and pull ups are a common exercise that I now know is being done wrong by lots of folks.
  • @1PercentMethod
    One of the best videos I have seen in a LONG TIME! Im working on my pull ups and will incorporate this training TOMORROW! thanx for such great info!
