      @IM4N13 That spin doesn't really work lol. Nice try but not reallyđŸ€­ My point is that people who form emotional attachments to people that they see on a screen(such as CZcams)are often doing so because they lack real life connections with people in person outside of social media. Real life connections are one of the key things to being content and living a healthy life. Have a nice day 😊

      I just turned 39 and I got some great advice from a guy who was the world pull-up champion, it helped me progress faster. He said if you can do say, 1 rep, after you finish it, do another rep and just go up as high as you can, maybe half way. Then do another as high as you can, probably a 1/4 rep. If you want you can do a 3rd partial, maybe just a few inches. Then let go. Each time I do it, my bonus partial reps get a little higher until I can add another full rep.
      Also I still use the orange pull-up assistance band. I think it's better that I can do 5 reps per set with that than over-straining to do only 1.

    This really is a must see for beginners
 i eventually did it in this fashion, after seeing dozens of videos to work it out
 this video, as he says, is short and to the point
 the best and most comprehensive video I’ve seen. (Started with a half pull up
 a half! Doing 8 now before using the band for two extra and longer sets.)

  • @stephenrothman6969
    @stephenrothman6969 Pƙed 17 dny +5

    I just want to add a point from the perspective of a 67 year old. That thing he shows with the band can be replicated at many levels, with wider, more stiff, stronger bands that give more assistance. I have the set from Wodfitters but there are a bunch of brands out there. I think almost anyone could do three sets of 10 pull-ups with their blue (most assistance) band. I started with the band that provides most assistance, moved on to the second level, and then the third. That is the middle level of their 5 band set. It still provides much more help than the thin band in this video. I have two more levels to go, and then back to unassisted pull-ups like I did when I was 30. If you literally can’t do a single unassisted pull-up, and the blue band is not enough help to get you to three sets of ten, you could put one foot in the blue band and one in the green. At some point the assistance is too much, and you can’t get down enough that your arms are straight. Using this system, literally anybody can increase their time under tension to three sets of 10.

One thing he didn't say is that if you can do only 2 clean push-ups, and you can't get your chin over the bar that's fine do half reps until you can't do half reps do only scapula pulls and then hang until you can't hang no more that's how you train until failure and build muscle especially if you don't want a resistance band

    Excellent advice. I've been training for a year and came to the same conclusions.
    Negatives and dead hangs are huge for beginners. Dead hangs in particular can fix shoulder and spine issues, in addition to building grip strength.
    I also add a deload week once per month, where I don't exercise at all, in order to let the slower growing muscles catch up. Many people simply use less weight or do lower reps, but I think rest is undervalued by most of us.
    This will relieve some of the long term fatigue that you build up as you get stronger and become used to training.

      You need to do explosive pull-ups and pull high to do muscle ups. Use a band as needed to learn the motion and coordination.

    I usually do one drop set at the end of movement. I never thought to due consecutive drop sets. I'll try it.
