It just feels different to me. My max pull up reps was 16 about 2 months ago. Even though i've never tried to see my maximum for chin ups it just feels harder to me and i think i just couldn't do 16 reps
Not many channels do this. However, look up Buff Dudes. They only explain it without picturing it but I still think that they are one of the greatest fitness channel.
You do really good work in general, but this is the best pullup vs chinup video I've seen! Informative, and it's almost hypnotic watching you cranking out rep after rep.
This is a Great Video. Not only in terms of the information but also from the technical point of view. You shot the video with a high professional effort. The light is perfect, there’s nothing to disturb observing you doing the exercises. It looks easy and I totally understand your instructions but it is damn hard performing such a fundamental exercise like the chin or pull up the way you do it. Thanks for the explanations.
I agree, I have been trying to find a good video about this topic. Just started getting back into doing pull ups & my back was sore right away. I look at it like ( Pull up = back/triceps |||| Chin up = mostly bicep muscles )
So to summarize it: chin-up: more biceps less forearms pull-up: more forearms less biceps chin-ups are easier because the bicep is bigger than the forearm muscles
It's normal to do chin ups and almost no feel the biceps? I'm doing them and I can only feel and get sore on my back. And hardly feel anything on the biceps. It's so weird.
Make sure to engage your scapula before doing pullups. If not, the dead hang angle will be bad for your shoulders over time. There is no substitute for these workouts! I’ve been working them for years, now I can get up to 36 pullups (not strict) in one set. Keep working my friends!
@@kajuanweaver1607 while hanging from the bar, pull up very slightly only using your shoulder blades (arm should still be locked out). This should move the tension from your shoulders to your upper back. A good visualization that helps is to lean back a little and focus on getting your sternum to the bar. Most people just hang directly under the bar and try to pull straight up until their chin gets over the bar, which will stress your shoulders over time.
I normally don't comment on videos but this one does truly deserve it! This is the highest quality fitness related video I've ever seen!👊👍 Amazing work, guys!🙌🏻 Greetings from Sweden 🇸🇪
Excellent video! Especially like the graphics with colored overlays of muscle groups on top of a live shot (4:28 and 4:55). Most effective presentation of musculature I've seen in an exercise video on CZcams! (Much more effective than a magic marker pen) ;-) Thanks and keep up the great work!
This is high quality content, and exactly what people need to know in order to lay a solid foundation for life-long training. Fully understanding the basics like this, is the best way to help people progress logically, step-by-step. Well done guys, really excellent work.
Felt like I learned a lot about why my hollow body pullups felt so awkward. Thanks for the info, I will definitely be using this to make my workouts more in line with physiology.
I think that was the idea...like why they teach how to drive stick shift on a muscle car so you can hear when to shift. I know zero about body mechanics, so it is very helpful to me to be able to see the muscles on the person while they are performing the exercise. Then I can try and imitate.
Thanks for the informative video! I try to do both pullups and chinups to balance things out, and now I understand how they affect both the front and rear of the body. Great video!
Excellent video! One of the best I have ever seen (I think I never have seen similar video or "very amateur" in compare to this one). Every video provides good insight on technique while it is so "friendly" to watch. Calimovement has best videos about technique and exercises. Videos are always greatly recorded and explain moves really clearly. Keep up the great job! Greetings from Czech republic.
Wow ! I really enjoyed watching this video due to you got straight to the point. Without sounding too rude, the problem with 90% of CZcams videos is people like to talk and talk and talk before they show you what you have came to see. If more videos were like yours, CZcams would be more enjoyable.
Curling like 25 pounds everyday helped me with pullups. I'm at 12to 15 chinups and 10 to 12 pull ups. Plus weighted chin ups and weighted pullups help.
From my understanding they have two different purposes: Chinups target the core, back, and biceps with emphasis on the biceps. Pullups target the core, back, and biceps with emphasis on the back.
Considering bicep curls and bench press are the most common weight lifting exercises, incorporating the pull up (which has less emphasis on the chest and arms, and targets the back more) into your workout will be highly effective.
awesome, thanks for this info, very informative and got my subscription. Do you recommend chin ups or pullups if I'm also doing dips for chest? Anyone feel free to answer, thnx.
Generally speaking, chin ups will work your biceps and chest more and they are also slightly more effective for the upper back, while pull ups are best for the biggest muscle in your back, the lats! We highly recommend doing both if you can.
Chin up makes you feel good about yourself. Pull ups remind you how weak you are.😐
Haha well said

I can do chin-ups with ease but I find pull-ups the hardest thing ever, can do hardly one or two properly.
for me pull up is more natural. chin ups put lots if strain on my muscles. may be its because by back muscles are bigger than the front ones.
gbin21 same
gbin21 i can do both for about 10 reps but my body still look like a girl :(

Make sure to engage your scapula before doing pullups. If not, the dead hang angle will be bad for your shoulders over time. There is no substitute for these workouts! I’ve been working them for years, now I can get up to 36 pullups (not strict) in one set. Keep working my friends!

From my understanding they have two different purposes:
Chinups target the core, back, and biceps with emphasis on the biceps.
Pullups target the core, back, and biceps with emphasis on the back.
Most do chin ups because they want big arms
@Bob Mathews still, a big bicep/ front of the upper arm is important for aesthetics as well. So it's best not to neglect biceps/ brachialis either.
Bob Mathews very true but me and you both know everyone wants huge biceps to flex 😆
Thank you for uploading this video. So helpful!
