I've done this method for 2 1/2 weeks now and I went from struggling to get even one clean Wide grip komm up to 5 clean reps. I started doing gtg with a very light resistance band 6 times a day and 6 days a week and went from 4 to 7 reps in the first week. Then i switched to unassisted pullups (same volume as before) and went from 3 to 5 unassisted reps in the next 1 1/2 weeks. I would highly recommend this method BUT make sure to properly warm up every time especially your shoulders (I didnt do that in the beginning and got shoulder pain after two days). That being said I would highly suggest doing this method in your vacation (summer holidays if you are a student) and wish you all fast progress 💪

Greetings, Alex and Sven. First of all, thank you for all the priceless advice on the topic of calisthenics, you've been given through years. It really is invaluable. Second - since you're both from Germany and we're transitioning into the winter here in middle latitudes, maybe you can make a video on training outside during the winter. Not a lot of videos out there on the matter. Beside obvious tips like getting a solid warm up, putting warm clothes, gloves, etc, I would like to know if there's more to it and if there's specific approach or some intricate tips on the matter. And again - thank you.

An interesting comment. I've also found this to be a bit of an issue, the bars get damn cold, my grip is worse.

[@aurupunk]

Agree, it's hard to train in the winter outside, would like to hear some tips

[@pmodd]

+@@stefanuzelac4463 Buy thin leather riggers gloves and use those to hold the bar. They should insulate you from the cold sufficiently well for the duration of the activity and cost only a couple of dollars. If your hands are cold after using the bar, invest in a small butane torch and a 1/2" deep socket. Heat the socket with the torch to a warm temperature and hold it in your hands to heat the section made cold by the bar. If the bar is steel, you might even be able to heat it directly with the torch to take the edge off the cold. Want to heat the whole bar? Bring a towel and a thermos flask of boiling hot water. Drench the towel in hot water and drape it around the bar, leaving it for a minute or so to let the heat soak in, then use the bar. It should be a LOT less cold on your hands, and if you handle the towel when it's up there, you should have warm hands too.

I have tried "Greasing the groove" for a month and a half, before starting I was able to do 10 pull ups. I started it by doing 5 times per week 7 times per day 5 pull ups every hour or an hour and a half, after 2 weeks I did 6 pull ups per set and after that I increased it on 7 pull ups per set. I rested 3 days before trying my max and I did 14 pull ups (strict form). So I increased my pull ups for 40%, which is not bad at all, So based on my experience I can say that this method works, but there's no chance to DOUBLE your pull ups.

[@anambivalentenemy]

Since i am also thinking to Grease the Groove for my pullups (my max now is also 10 reps), i want to ask you.Besides increasing your 1RM,did you also increase your pullups per set? We all know,that we can't perform our max reps for 4 sets in our training.We always do 70-80% of our max reps in each set.So,did you also increase that?And how much? And last,how had you structure your workouts for these 6 weeks?I mean,did you also train pulling (rows or other pullups variations ,as well)? The same days,as your GTG?Did you keep push days and leg days as they were,or did you lower the intensity? Or,you didn't train anything else for these 6 weeks,as Sven implied here? Thank you for any possible answer you could give me!

[@spunzel851]

In my opinion the title is just to attract more people and we can't blame them for that. But it is not totally bullshit. Of course you can't go from 10 pull ups to 20 pull ups in just a month and half. It'd be too beautiful. However going from 3 to 6 pull ups is totally possible in a month. So i think that the reality is that this method will increases your max reps and that it's how we should see the message of this video.

[@kassios]

The thing is that I can get the same results by doing two sets to failure every 3 days. I think this method helps a lot if you are a beginner, but I do not know if it's the best practice if you are an intermediate or above.

I tried a similar method for close grip pullups. I could only do one consistently and sometimes 2 before my arms hurt. I installed a pullup bar at work and over an eight hour day I did one pullup every 45 minutes or so. The next day I was curious so I went back to work to see if there was any change. I was able to do 5 close grip pullups before I even felt my arms start to complain. That was the first time I was able to do more than two in a row.

What are your thoughts on applying this principle to several exercises, to have many mini-workouts throughout the day? So in one day you take 5 min every hour to do a few reps of pull-ups, push ups etc. for 5-7 hours. I spend most my day at the computer, so it is nice to take 5 min to stretch the legs, but also getting a workout would be amazing.

How does this work? I mean, when do the muscles recover?

Without going to full failure, not that much damage done to the muscle fibers. Just enough is done to stimulate growth. There is a big difference in recovery time, when we train to failure VS when we don't. This is how gymnasts and bodyweight training experts train with such high volume.

I was wondering if you could elaborate on what the CNS's threshold is, and how you know you've hit it. It could also be a great idea to make a video about the relationship between CNS and exercise - I don't see many good videos on this on YT. Thanks!

Is it really effective for building strength? With just 30-70% of 1 rep max? It's a bit too little in my opinion. I use a different strategy. I train with 90-95% 1RM, 3 sets of 2-3 reps, plenty of rest between sets, one exercise for arms, one for legs, one training a day. (Three times a week, because of my age and lower recovery rate, your mileage may vary). Much more fun. Doing exercises with just 70% of 1RM many times throughout a day will enable to do more reps of the same exercise, it won't make you much stronger. What I mean is that if you want to become strong enough to do one arm pull up for instance you need to do exercises with higher intensity tha regular pull ups. Low reps, high intensity. That's how gymnasts and weightlifters train for strength. What are your thoughts on that?

[@calimove]

No not 30-70% of your 1RM. Remember we're talking about your Bodyweight. The intensity always stays the same. We mean 30-70% of your max. reps. Example: you are able to to 10 Pull Ups, so you only do 3-7 Pull Ups. RM and the % of your max reps is different. Another exmample this time with bench Press: You can Bench Press 80kg x 5. If you want to increase or decrease the intensity of the exercise you change the weight (different RM), but in our example if you stick to the same weight and just change the reps.

Thank s for everything sir

Die greasing the groove Methode hab ich auch gemacht! Es ist wirklich effektiv💪🏼. Ich habe sogar die greasing the groove Methode mit leichten zusatzgewicht gemacht und hab anschließend körpergewichtklimmzüge direkt danach gemacht! Hilft auch sehr gut um mehr Kraft und Ausdauer zubekommen👍🏼

[@mielerodriguez5678]

Yep. I agree.

[@freehatespeech6804]

Sehr gut

The 90 minute rest would work well if I had a pull up bar next to my office desk

Hey Alex, thanks for all your great videos! I am wondering whether it would be okay to combine two or three exercises in these throughout-the-day sets. For example pull/ push or pull / push / abs (eg. pull ups/push ups/ knee raises). If so, what would the rest period between be? Thanks

[@jiji2166]

Can we combine this method with other programs,for example you tell we need to don't don't get exhausted,but if i have back and biceps day in the program and workout make me exhausted did this method works ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️i love you so much

This is what I was searching for😀😀😀😀

Great video! This is from Pavel Tsatsouline about the grease the groove method very effective but not for all people as you told in the video it has an higher risk of injury.

[@JRRichards123]

Man, I'm struggling to figure out how I can implement this in my life. I guess I could do it twice in the morning, 2-3 times at lunch, and then 4 more in the evening. Also, it's not clear to me how to integrate with other exercises. I understand the no other pull exercises, but should I run and/or do other calesthenics moderately? I'll rewatch. I would LOVE to double my pullups. That would make me so happy.

[@riccardo91rufy]

Yeah same problem, I still have to train the rest of the exercises. How can we do that?

[@JRRichards123]

@@riccardo91rufy I rewatched the video. Basically, if you do pullups, no other pull exercises during that month. The video says that your body will be too shocked. Also, we'd have to minimize the other exercises (I'm interpreting maintenance level only). According to the guys, you have to be well rested. I'm thinking of only mixing in light pushup, dip and squats and running. Like 50-70% maximum. What do you think?

[@riccardo91rufy]

@@JRRichards123 No other pull exercises looks still fine, but It must Be hard to add 3 workout days with dips, HSPU and some skill work. Though I'd like to increase my pull up reps, I've been stuck at 13-14 reps for 2 months now
