Can't do Pull-Ups ?? Watch This Video

Pullups are one of the most beneficial overall muscle and strength developers ! They also take a certain base level of strength. You can't mess around on a bar and get your first pullup. It takes SMART and CONSISTENT training

These 3 exercises mixed into your training with hard work and consistency will get you there !

More information on the movements:

Scapula Pulls: Scap pulls are fantastic for people who have trouble activating their lats.( Activating your lats should be the first move you make in a pull up) The ability to hang with straight arms, and then pull your shoulder blades down your back, is an excellent way to learn how to initiate a pull up with your lats and make your back stronger for pulling. As we build strength we can start adding longer holds to the scap pulls. Start out with 6 reps. BUILD to 6 reps with 3-8 second holds. Do 3-5 sets for gains.

Pull-Up Negatives: For the pull-up negatives you can jump like i did or use a step or boost to get your body to the top of the bar. Your chin should start over the bar. Lower slow, controlled,and make sure that you're breathing. As strength increases the time that we're lowering should also increase. Start out with 5 reps

3 Way Isometric Negatives: These are king for getting your pullup down. We're building strength at every range of the pull. Depending on your strength level hold each position evenly. Could be 5,5,5 seconds. Could be 3,3,3 either way challenge yourself ! Do 3-5 sets of these for gains.
MOST COMMON MISTAKES

Pulling up with bent hips and knees, or “kipping” your way up. Kipping is the worst thing you can do. A good, strict pull up should not recruit your hip flexors or use momentum to achieve the end result. Keep your body in hollow body position!

NOT BREATHING. As intense as a pull is you have to BREATHE. Holding your breath will tire you out and create fatigue and nausea.
Not extending the arms all the way at the bottom of the movement. If you start or finish your pull ups with a bent arm, you didn’t complete the pull up, you're creating bad habits and you're making it harder for yourself in the future.
