Congrats on the one arm pullup strength. There's so much commitment required to get to this level. Patience is key for pain free progress and avoiding golfers elbow!

Mr. Vadnal

[@colinmurrayYT]

Thanks bro! Trying to master patience like you and maybe hit a straddle planche one day

[@eLuZiveMaRiio]

I’ve developed some shoulder pain from training for the OAP. So just thought I need to train my rear delts some more idk

[@kimberlysadberry6757]

All the insane and impressive training you did aside, I LOVE the mini rave😂😍

[@GucciFeet]

Good job bro! Welcome to the one arm pull up club! it took me a while too. 12 months rock climbing and 3 months of training got me my first OAP! it took dedication!

[@Jen999]

Hey Colin.. every time we watch you do one of these challenges.. showing all the hard work you do.. and all the setbacks you go through.. and then you get there.. always makes me cry😭😭😭.. My three sons tell me doing one arm pull-ups when you’re over 6 feet with long legs.. is almost impossible.. And we all want you to know we are so proud of you for your perseverance and resilience in getting the job done.💪 We think you’re an amazing guy who makes the best videos ever.. keep going Colin❣️ Jen999💜💙

[@colinmurrayYT]

Thank you so much!! I’m glad everyone liked it and I think they’re right it’s way harder when you’re taller. But we got it done I’ll have to get started on a new challenge for y’all.

[@Jen999]

[@amaan0121]

You were the one to motivate me to start going to the gym. As a skinny fat teen, it was really hard to gain weight, but now things are looking up.Thanks for the push I needed to change!! (Note to whom it may concern: Just start and persevere, and you will definitely see gains in anything you wish to achieve. )

I just got so Involved in this journey. The emotional arc . I WAS ROOTING FOR YOU ! Bravo ! 🤩 also sick moves

[@colinmurrayYT]

I’m so glad you liked the story, WE DID IT!! And thank you I’ve been working on them😂

[@juliehsunflower]

thank you for this. it meant a lot that you shared the tough couple months you went through. i relate to that so much… one of my goals is to be able to handstand. someday crow to handstand but start a bit easier… i trained diligently for several months. then it all slipped away. i lost muscle and was not taking care of myself. its scary how powerful your thoughts can be. i am to the point where i am getting back into it. i get hard on myself because i should be farther along than i am. where i want to be at least. anyway thank you again for sharing the reality of learning something as hard as a one arm pull up. maybe might add it to my calisthenic goal list too. im grateful i found your channel and i hope you have a great day too 🌻

[@colinmurrayYT]

Thank you so much for the comment. I totally relate and it is scary how our brains can take off on their own. It can be hard to stay positive and it turns into a runaway train. I’m glad your back at it tho and the crow to handstand is a fun one to learn! Good luck training it and you have a good day too

Love how this guy keeps it real/raw rather than showing off❤❤❤🎉

Seeing an average guys like you just posting his journey, doing his workouts at home, buying his equipment from Walmart.... Bro you're inspiring! A testament thst anyone can do it. All he needs is a bar to hang from. 💪👍 Thanks for thr motivation. Keep it going brother!

[@carrioncalisthenics]

Tremendous respect for the diligence!

[@nelsonbit]

very exciting and entertaining video. i felt the pride of the results like if i got it myself! i feel very motivated to start my own oap journey even tho i currently have a bad golfer's elbow. but i'll get it 🙏🏼

[@colinmurrayYT]

Thanks and good luck I was lucky and only had elbow problems for a week but by resting on negatives and after only doing band assist for a bit it went a way

[@jessereid8482]

the best thing to do in the face of failure is to move forward. don't dwell on it, the past won't change. analyze, plan, and improve. notice patterns that trigger a relapse and eliminate them.

[@N22883]

Holy moly what a journey Thanks so much for posting man Hopefully the mental is doing better! Always tough if that gets in the way

[@JuiceBox000]

The dance party when crazzyy lmaoo

[@colinmurrayYT]

lol thank you! I’m glad you liked it. Keep working them pullups there’s no shame in cheating!

[@abhirupkundu2778]

also depends on how much you weigh. I would suppose you weigh like 75-90 kg?

[@dungzz2573]

love your journey bro

[@shaochenYT]

I love your energy a lot, thank you for making us smile~ ! also CONGRATS! Side question: I am working on my one arm pull up too, any tip you would give to stay in good form?

[@colinmurrayYT]

Thank you 🙏Yes m, use the resistance band, negatives are ok but I found that resistance bands were the best to help me get there!

[@PanMan47]

Just so you know, I stop what I'm doing and go do pull-ups while watching your videos (ok, sometimes I do other exercises). Keep it up, king.

[@danieldonnert3747]

Also, 5:34 your "secret" weapon. hahahaha

[@TuranZeynalliArmWrestling]

In my case, I’ve never done any training for one arm pull up. All i did, was weighted pullups. And one day I tried a one arm pull up and it just happened) Your video gives a great explanation to the process

That’s insane your weighted pull-ups must have been heavy heavy!

I remember there always being some mention on the one arm pullup in some of your videos And now you actually managed to learn it congrats brother

[@colinmurrayYT]

Yeah I’ve been working on it throughout! Thank you🙌

[@ChristianFabender]

Congratulations! The OAP is also a big goal of mine, how strong was your weighted pullup (in %bw) when you did your first OAP?

[@colinmurrayYT]

Idk the percentage but I can do 2 plates for 3-4 reps

[@ChristianFabender]

@@colinmurrayYT Good stuff, I am at about 70lbs for 3 reps, so some way to go still

[@nonexistent944]

What really helps is using you non pulling hands pinky finger to wrap around the bar as a little support and if you could do 10 reps like this, you can do a rep of one-arm pullup.

[@abhirupkundu2778]

There is no counting of how many reps of something you can do to achieve something. Its just a rumor and works differently for everyone depending on their muscle proportion and weight distribution. For me, my maximum muscle proportion is on my arms and shoulders, and most of the extra weight is around the abdomen, which makes it harder to pull myself, but easier to push.

[@Rightsponde]

Legend !

[@sepsawnvargis]

Bro if you get a in Hollywood get bad guy rolls you got the perfect villain look and physique .

[@kzwize]

I have a question. What really helped you to do the first part of the one arm pull up. I can do the top half, i can do negatives and i can hold the chin above the bar with one hand but the first part is different. Can you give me some advice, please? Btw, congrats in your results.🎉

[@abdullahmostakim5550]

After five month of training I've lost my consistency brother. Recently I've graduated and unemployed. And confused. Not getting motivation. Seeing you i started training and got shredded and gained weight even got aesthetic visible abs. And now for 1 and half month got distracted. 😑

[@colinmurrayYT]

Yea that happened to me recently too I hope you get back to it though. I know for me buying headphones helped cause it made working out fun again idk just a suggestion

[@bobsmith-ui8uw]

When you were eating the ice cream, you should have put a “dramatic reenactment” subtitle

Condolences on you losing an arm 🙏

[@Asadc1995]

you seem like myself a fast twitch pulling dominant athlete

[@gcho.1985]

Wish I had that determination

[@colinmurrayYT]

I think determination is built by braking down the goal and getting small wins. So you have it, you just need to find what means a lot to you. I still need to work on mine tho I suck at so much stuff still lol

[@DarkTrapStudio]

1:43 I love this sequence !!!

[@whaupdawg]

That's me always in the stores/shops 😂😂

[@useruser-1737]

GOAT

[@antoinemaxima6036]

I was able to do a one arm pull up. I will add that the exercise is very taxing to my elbow. So much that it compromise my bench press strength and vice versa, if my arm are sore from weight lifting, I can't do a one arm pull up. So i think one should be fully recovered before even trying.

[@asterixzm]

427 days omg😮 im training it now 45 days, but Last part is the hardest, but it closer and closer

[@facuuaf]

Slow eccentrics are the way to go. Instead of jumping maybe buying a small bench to go up

[@colinmurrayYT]

They are the way to go I did more of those towards the end and it helped a lot

You can get any pull ups at one arm?! Congrats!! 👏👏😁🤗 What's your weight? I'm 92lbs' or 42kg's dwarf with mini-bodybuilder and I can get 5 pull ups at one arm with Pull Up Mate using despite my age of 43 years old. But I'll try more reps as strengther in next weeks... 😁🥰

[@mr.zer0773]

Hello, Collin! I am currently working on my handstands, but all my determination gets out the window because of the awful feeling of blood rushing into the head and face and staying there. Is there some way to reduce it? Does it just get better with practice?

[@colinmurrayYT]

Yeah I hate that feeling but it goes away the more you practice. Keep with it and just hold it against a wall so you get comfortable upside down!
