As a beginner who could never do pull ups before, I went from 2 pull-ups to 6 in a couple of months with grease the groove, and then I was able to scale back a little on the frequency but still managed to get to 10 in about 6 months.
@Tobiasz978 ай бұрын
Key takeaway's: 1. Grease The Groove is for strenght and skill increase rather than hypertrophy 2. GTG is addition to your normal workout routine (you do both) 3. You should be doing GTG with a perfect technique 4. You don't have to do warmup before GTG sets (if you start your GTG first thing in the morning then you can have a few minutes walk before) 5. 1 excercise 6. Intensity 50-70% (for example if your max pull-ups is 10 reps - do 5 to 7 reps in a set) 7. 4 to 10+ sets throughout one day with plenty of rest between those sets (around an hour or more is good) 8. 4-6 days per week 9. Feel free to increase from week to week your number of sets or/and reps or/and frequency 10. Don't rush immediately with your intensity, reps, sets etc. It's likely to injure you and you can always increase those later (choose what is sustainable for you) 11. You should be ending every set and also every GTG day with a feeling that you could physicallly do more 12. You do GTG for 4-6 weeks. After that you can do this again with or without changing the excercise or just continue your normal workouts

I got Pavel's 1st book, "Power to the People, Russian Strength Training Secrets" back in December 2001. It changed my workouts forever. I started doing myofibrillar training instead of sarcoplasmic. Training naturally, I went from 175lbs to 200lbs in a year. Low volume, high intensity, training your whole body on consecutive days. It shouldn't work, but it DOES. Pavel is the Master!

When I started training calisthenics I followed David Goggins method of nickels and dimes (5 pull ups - band assisted, 10 push ups) technically greasing the groove cause it wasnt to failure, it definitely made a difference. Only 8 months into training and can do 11-12 consecutive pull ups now and still supplement my off days with GTG to this day, it works!

I actually did something like this when I started at 0 pullups, it took me like 1 year to get to 4 sets of 10 from dead hang to chest to bar...if some one cares, I started with what ever reps I could do at the best form posibly at the time for as many sets I could. I would work till I hit 9 set of that rep range and then increase the reps by one till I got to 9 sets of 6 reps...I also did weigthed pull ups...basically my first year was getting the form rigth and work capacity up. What I liked about it is that I build a lot of strengh, I got my first muscle up with out training it, may have tried high pull ups twice before my first mu, yhe same for front lever...I just have to work on the form

Interesting take regarding the 1 hr rests in between sets. I was never able to get past 31 strict pull ups without aches and injury. I would do them daily in one session, usually 3x15-20 overhand, followed by sets of weighted, underhand, and super wide grip, with 2-3 min rests, for a total of ~10 sets total, but I would always succumb to shoulder pain before being able to break through the 31 barrier. I'll have to try out this kind of program sometime to see if it works better. Thanks for posting!

At some point I was doing easily 70 pushups in a row as the first thing in the morning. I stopped due to work and going to office and I can’t even do 40 in a row now without dying. Consistency, technique and rests are key. And don’t worry about hypertrophy. If you improve your technique with this method, when you train for growth in your regular workout you’ll target the right muscles and avoid injury, allowing to do more and better

So true, the key being the discipline of submaximal training. I'm sure if one greases the groove on anything at all, it's better to be extra conservative about it if you're planning on still working out later or whatever. You really should be only seeing it as an opportunity to warm your body up and prime it for your session later, and/or get in some skill sets that are super easy, but a stronger foundation is only gonna make you stronger. There's almost no need to worry about trying to progress with this method cause that eager mentality might get in the way of the principles of employing this method. This is all hypothetical speculation. There's probably days you can go hard on a grease the groove and feel good, etc. But that foresighted mindfulness of your subsequent sets and next workout sessions are definitely the takeaway for me from this video. Good poop!

Once I started doing multiple sets of 5 plus reps I would go two days on one day off. Then when I started doing reverse pyramids starting with 10 reps and going down to one rep I would do that 3 days per week.The 😮 I tested myself on the dead hang pull up wish I could only do about 12 reps prior to doing this routine and afterwards I could bang out 20 dead hang reps and that was not going to maximum effort because I wanted to make sure that I was able to do my rep goal with every rep being perfect with a explosive concentric motion, getting way above the bar long ring under control to a full dead hang pausing for a split second and making sure that each rep was smooth.. I may have been able to do another 3 to 6 reps of the movement while the forum deteriorated to Total garbage on the last rep. I guess I just found that grease the groove was so great and got me so good at doing the movement efficiently that doing any of the feps sloppily then I wasn't staying true to the skill that I had developed from Grease the groove. I know certain movements are designed to take to absolute failure and I believe most of those movements are more of an isolation single joint movement. Whether people believe it or not the pull up is a fairly fatiguing movement if you weigh over 200 lb and even if you don't. I weigh between 200 and 210 during the year. I don't think I'm ever going to go back to doing pull-ups is part of a back workout once or twice a week. 3 days a week but I will also include a back workout consisting of rowing and deadlift every 2 weeks. However, during the first phase of Greece the groove, I didn't do any other back work and I didn't do any direct bicep or forearm work. Also I might do a month of weighted Pull-Ups, I believe that for maximum lat development nothing beats Grease the groove. P play plan on getting 30 smooth pull-ups and beyond and there's no other way to do that if you aren't practicing Grease the grove.

Question: You say, keep doing normal workouts and addition to those do GtG. I understand that it's important to keep working the other muscle groups normally that I'm not Greasing. But if I normally do back workout(hard) twice a week and then add 3 days of GtG pullup to that, I will burn out, no question about it. So should I drop the normal back workouts for the 5weeks I'm Greasing and just concentrate on the pullup GtG, or should I perhaps try to dial down the normal back workouts a little, so that I can do also the GtG?

Hey @fitnessfaqs or anyone else that can help. Ive been wondering, can you add isometrics to grease the groove? Or make your reps slower for better results? Would that be too much intensity. For example. My max good form pull ups is 2. So I've been doing one every 30-mjnutes to an hour; Holding at the top and doing them as slow as possible some reps. Also does it matter much if i switch my grip throughout the day? Chin ups, neutral grip, wide etc. or should I stick to one grip per day/week for better results. My main goal is more reps.

Question Daniel: how does a program get adjusted after testing a max? Could you talk more about testing a maximum? I'm aware that we don't want to test it often, and that it's a big shock to the nervous system. I often see videos talk about how to lead up to testing a max, maybe that's the part that matters, but I've not heard much about how to treat your body and how to train after you've tested your max. Let's say I'm coming back from a long break and I'm wanting to see where I'm at. So I test my max reps in a set for a move or seconds of an isometric hold. What would my program look like based on that max for the following days or week? Would I simply take 30% off the top of my max and call that my 3 set max reps? Of course this is a topic way too dependent on what my goals are for skills, hypertrophy, strngth, endurance, variation in recovery of different muslcles. But that's what I'm curious about, each body part after testing a max is going to be in shock, so how does a program get adjusted after testing a max?

Not sure I understand the "extra thing " bit: taking the pull up example, GTG would be on top of the "back days" that include already pull-ups among other exercises? In such days any GTG set after the work out might be super intense givrn the prevous work load.

I'll try it. See you in a month, right now I can do 4 pull ups with good form. We'll see next month the improvement

Does the concept of time under tension apply to grease the groove? For example, let's say my max consecutive pull-ups is 6. 50% would be 3 per set. If I do regular pace reps it would only be 8-10 seconds under tension. Would I a) do regular reps or b) use a resistance band so I can do enough reps to hit about 45 seconds under tension? If I tried to do eccentric without band assist to accumulate that much time I would be maxing out, it would be way above 50% effort. Hopefully I can determine which method to use, I am thinking of building a pull-up bar in my backyard so I can make this feasible!

I remember once as a teen I would do pull ups every time I died in the game I was playing. And over a couple weeks I went from barely 2 to 7.
