Chin Up VS. Pull Up. Which One Is Better?

[@mihirpadhye4067]

Both helped me build a bigger back. So I love both pull ups and chin ups.

[@SodaiGoku]

Brilliant invention, Bob! 👍

[@Fungitarian]

Y'all like the click and clack of physical therapist ❤️🙂❤️🙂❤️ thanks for all the great info

[@reddogleader1968]

Pull ups rule. I do 5 reps @ 6 sets for 30 a session . Minimum 3x per week. No kipping. I am over 70. ☮️

[@supacamoo]

Respect! 💪🏾

[@maxwellschmidt235]

It's always seemed to me that overhand is better at bottom range of motion, and underhand is better at top... good to hit both, but this is why I prefer to do them on rings- the arm rotates and engages all the muscles as the movement completes.

[@jacks_at_the_gym]

Can u guys do a video on the background on how you become physical therapist and maybe things you would suggest a teen wanting to go into the field.

[@gorbysangco]

start with the love of the human body then start with anatomy books. 😊 how young are you?

[@victoriaolson8985]

We have your anchor and cables system, but these pull ups are so cool. My husband currently does them against a bathroom sink.

[@SEAKPhotog]

They both hit the back at nearly the same areas and intensity. I say go with what feels best or go with chin ups if you want to recruit more biceps if pull ups and chin ups feel the same. Chin ups feel better on my tendinitis and I like the biceps pump so I mostly do them.🤷🏻‍♂️

[@SG-bs6dm]

I really enjoy your channel. Thank you so much for showing me an easier way to do push-ups in one of your earlier videos!

[@Molly-vn2hf]

You guys along with having gone to pt before is making me think dealing with the school might be worth it to become a physical therapist

[@foughtforlove1]

It's worth it girl!

[@kyfra5257]

I think it is really worth the investment even though it can be a huge sacrifice. Good luck with it! You got this!

[@spicykimchi1]

Thanks for the video, but how often do you recommend doing pull-ups? twice a week? Every other day?

[@jr1001jr]

Gotta love the intro song 👍😎👍

Both good just hit different parts of back. We all need to get HUGE!

I do both in the same workout session. They have more significant effects on different muscles.

I really laughed at the eight minuteconversation. Take this like from a random 28 year old Portuguese. I really enjoy and can really always take something from your videos for me. Thanks guys!

[@fastsongdancequimpo5809]

Great for ladies. Thanks for sharing. How and where to order that new invention of yours for pullups and chinups?

[@KlausECD]

I find chinups easier than pullups

[@trevbarlow9719]

Most do, myself included. If I can do 10 chins, I can do 8 pullups.

[@zedemm2331]

Loved the intro

[@annatanneberger1]

Thanks, gentlemen! I am a great fan of yours. Could you please explain which muscles are used when you do the hanging knee raise? Not just core muscles, but especially which SHOULDER muscles. When lockdown started, what I missed most from the gym, was the hanging knee-raise. So I bought one that can be installed against a wall at home - basically, just the two armrests at an appropriate height. I love it, because of the stretch-out just from hanging there, it feels good on my spine, even before working my core. It's the same as the inversion-table you described in another video, except that you're not upside down. But I'm interested to know which shoulder muscles work.= resting on your elbows and your body hanging off your shoulders. The first time I tried the hanging knee-raise, my shoulders were too weak to hold me in that position. Now it's easy, and I would like to know which muscles I'd worked successfully to achieve that.

[@HighTen_Melanie]

I can’t do either! 😂

[@mauibuilder1239]

You’re not alone!

[@sondra6133]

I watch you guys all the time, this video is my fav. My goal is a few unassisted pull ups, you guys make me laugh every time. Great job!!

[@Nickpaintbrush]

I think a dedicated pull up bar bolted into the brickwork or similar would be better, thanks!

[@kmcg101]

One of the many problems with the over-the-doorway bars is that it's very easy to knock the part over the trim loose if you do negatives by jumping to the top of the rep. I did that with mine and when it gave way I landed on my back, whacked my head on my carpeted floor, and got a concussion.

[@beta_cygni1950]

I just commented about how these are safe. But yes, you gotta use them within the design limitations. If you use them for plyometrics or something like that, then yes... they CAN be unsafe. If you bounce around then that can certainly happen. But if you use them in a methodical manner, it is VERY stable.

[@kmcg101]

@@beta_cygni1950 to be more clear, these are safe if they are in the proper position and the force on the bar is down. My folly was exerting a small bit of upward pressure while getting in position for my negative chin up which knocked it out of position slightly.

[@beta_cygni1950]

@@kmcg101 Yep... Excellent point.

[@joeyleveille1905]

Great video! Could you show us how to make our own version of Brad's invention?

[@gunargundarson1626]

I always thought that chin-ups were for the forearms and triceps & the pull-ups were for the biceps and the deltoids

[@joe94c]

There's no tension in the triceps in either

[@jamesianv]

you missed an golden opportunity to sell bands, thats how i got to doing my first pull up, hang them from the bar put your feet in like stirrups, start with what ever resistance you need to do 5, work up to 10 and then lessen resistance to do 5 again, 1 day on 2 days off. greasing the grove seems correct but it goes against the stress recovery adaptation theory for the novice trainee maybe good for advanced athletes this study was done by who on whom?

[@intermix2580]

Pull up helps build more width chin ups help build thickness

I don’t think I’m your target demographic so I don’t know how relevant this is, but I find it much harder to do with palms facing away from me.

[@oORegularKevOo]

If you do not have metal free door do not use the the door frame bars... It is dangerous...

[@Winslow.]

Can i do these exercises if i have bulging disc in L4-L5 ?

[@mikaelgaiason688]

Door bars are perfectly fine. Only problem is that you guys don't sell them. They're perfectly safe, it's almost impossible to find a door one won't fit on, and they don't ever do damage to the trim. Basic physics. The back piece is on the other side of the fulcrum of the curve, making it push in, not down..

[@LTVoyager]

We bought one for my son and it didn’t work well at all and was not safe. I would not buy one again no matter who was selling it. Much better to get a good solid wall or ceiling or beam mount or the free standing rack with pull-up bar and other things like squats with free weights.

[@mikaelgaiason688]

@@LTVoyager What's so unsafe about it?

[@kennyg63]

Totally agree with you. I had one for several years and never had a problem.

[@beta_cygni1950]

LTVoyager... I am not sure what you mean by "unsafe". I have had one for 6 years, no issues. I not only do pullups, but tuck levers (and tuck lever pull ups). And I have done weighted pulls with a backpack (weight + bodyweight = 230lbs). And never an issue.

That is just a shitty pull up bar, just look for a good one with an extra bar which creates distance from the door, because of the better weight distribution it will never fall of the ledge.
