By far, the most helpful instructions when it comes to pull-ups and common mistakes. Thanks Daniel! 🔥🔥 Your biweekly newsletters and HomeHero programme have opened my eyes to so much more in the world of calisthenics, strengthened my knowledge on techniques, form mistakes and training patterns.

[@nebathev-gan]

half reps are the most annoying. And they're usually done by people who love to brag about how many pull ups they can do.

I was thinking just rub some damn dirt on your hands

[@SpaghettiToaster]

@@echo_94 that makes your grip worse, not better

[@echo_94]

SpaghettiToaster it’s the same thing as chalk, unless you got some kinda different dirt. For me it works, dirt up then rub it in your hands

[@SpaghettiToaster]

@@echo_94 It's not the same thing, chalk is magnesium carbonate, dirt is a mixture of all kinds of rocks, dead leaves and animal poop. The point of chalk is to dry up your hands without filling in your skin ridges for maximum grip. Dirt isn't a drying agent, in fact, it usually contains water, and unless you get lucky, it won't be the right particle size either. Maybe you're just lucky and your dirt happens to be just the right kind of dust. But in general, it shouldn't work.

[@mrnoone6]

According to this video, I have 3 mistakes, which I suffer and effected a lot, I'll correct them in my next pull up session. 1-I don't use chalk: My grip is quite strong so didn't mind chalk but my hand skin gets so hurt sometimes and I can't handle hanging from a bar anymore, so you're right, I'll start using chalk 2-I go to dead hang per rep: I started my pull up journey from working on my dead hang to active hang so I thought going dead hang while doing pull up is gonna be more efficient, bu it cut my reps therefore my back muscles not worked enough. I'll be on active hang when I'm doing pull ups. 3-I don't rest enough between sets: I do my first set and I cut my rest short more likely under 1 min. therefore next sets I can't do well my reps drops significantly. I'm gonna set timer and rest enough before next set. Thank you Daniel, your video helped me much.

[@milododd]

It's a shame pull up bars like that are so prevalent. It's so difficult for a normal height person to execute with decent form or a variety of grips/widths.

[@emzeemostlygaming3678]

He's 6'1 I think, he already knows the struggle haha. It's true though, I can't do pullups without my knees bent forward.

[@Mycrosss]

What do you mean a normal height person? The taller you are the more difficult it gets actually..

[@KitLaughlin]

@Dan Don Milo meant that the width and height of the bars is fixed (and so wider grip chins cannot be done, for example) and tall people can't hang fully if the bars are too low.

[@KitLaughlin]

@Dan Don Of course. Persistence is key.

[@mrnaizguy]

Goddammit 3 years into calisthenics and I did pullups wrong the whole time! Well you never learn enough. With hunched back I can do a decent amount of pullups but with thoracic extension and elevated chest I only manage 3 at best before form breaks down. My ego just got shattered. Got to admit I'm embarrassed about only being able to do 3 with perfect form.

[@blairparkinson8118]

[@masteranton5660]

You can still go into a passive hang between reps. It will make the exercise a bit harder but it will engage the back a lot. Its not a mistake, it is an option.

[@suke3823]

Absolutely, just gotta make sure you stop at the bottom with the scapulas engaged, then drop to a dead hang.

[@darionietlispach2470]

[@wholebrain8457]

Hi ! Great video ! I was really concerned about my rest perdiod. Since I do mostly high intensity (slow) pull ups, I was considering myself bad at recuperation because other mates told me to rest 30 to 45 seconds between series, and I was really out of strength. Now that I know I have to rest 2 to 3 minutes, I'm sure I won't feel bad resting so much anymore ! The pull up mistake that annoys me... is fighting against gravity only halftime ! I always say (for other exercices too) that performing the movement more slowly while controlling it the whole time is much better than exploding your way up then letting yourself fall back down.

[@ummmmmmmmmmmnmmmm]

The tips on engaging the scapula are very helpful. Especially the bit about moving your shoulder away from the ears. As soon as I tried that i realized that I haven't been engaging my scapula at all. I was moving my shoulders back into the position but I wasn't actually engaging the muscles. This explains why I've had shoulder pain and why I mostly feel a burn in my biceps when doing pull-ups. Thank you for the informative and succinct content. When people search for information on youtube, videos like this are what they are hoping to find.

Tqsm 🙌 watched this video today and actually find my mistake from a long time i was not able to increcease my rep but practising regularly my mistake was i was not keeping my scapula muscle active and used to do dead hang after every rep but now after applying some of your tips i am really feeling stronger. Great video

[@userblahblahblah96]

Hey Daniel, just wanted to say, you're the one fitness KZbinr that has the ability to motivate me on the days I don't feel like getting up and going to the gym. Appreciate your vids man Edit: I was going pretty heavy on weighted pull-ups the other day, and I started feeling pain in my shoulder. This isn't common for me, any reasons why and maybe some adjustments I need to take?

[@ytmyeti4864]

Lorem ipsum Maybe it could be because your shoulders weren't prepared for the heavier weight, I'd say go lower weight wise, and do more reps then build up the weight and decrease the reps, also make sure you engage the scapula as that will keep your shoulders healthy? I used to get shoulder pain when doing weighted pull ups and I think it was because my scapula wasn't properly engaged at the heavier weight, doing reps of ten with weight and focusing on form sorted it out and my shoulder felt better after a few weeks, also make sure you have healthy shoulders in general without imbalances, for example make sure your rotator cuff isn't weak, scapular pull ups should help all round to strengthen your shoulder

[@userblahblahblah96]

RabidYeti This actually makes a ton of sense. I will admit I somewhat start compensating when I'm trying to pull-up with 2 plates and even though I get the reps out, they aren't the cleanest. I need to check the ego and build back up the proper way. Thanks for the input, I'll definitely give it a shot.

[@ytmyeti4864]

Yeah, bad form with heavy weights isn't a great idea, hope your training goes well :) I did a 5 sets of ten reps for a while, then once form got better, got the higher weight and did 5x5, just coming back from an injury, and lower weight definitely hit the ego

Josh Jones i was there before too with assisted pullups. It is so easier to move from band to band to regular pullups. I got much better form then someone that dont want to use band cause it is ’lame’.

[@masterphilip1313]

Quick tip, if you're having time doing pullups try using a chair, or box to stand on so you'll be at the top of the movement with your chin over the bar. Do the eccentric motion, slowly and controlled. Eventually you'll get strong enough to do a couple of reps

[@bruh3656]

[@afk649]

I hardly ever see anyone properly engage the scapula in the movement. I see so many people pulling with their arms!

[@emilbrandwyne5747]

its cheating yourself. If you can do only 2 with full range it means there is a good portion of muscles left out of the training. Intensity is KING Volume is Princes

[@simonpeters5977]

Why would you be annoyed?

[@cosmodewit]

FrostieBG Quality over quantity mate. If you didn't do the full range of motion of the exercise you shouldn't count it as a rep. It's like my friends who pick a lighter weight when for example doing overhead presses, because they say that they don't think they can handle 12 reps with a heavier weight. But I don't give a crap if you can do 12 reps if you don't challenge yourself or if you cheat. I rather have you do 8 perfect reps while struggling on the 9th one and failing. You're not supposed to do 3 x 12 reps and call it a day, you're supposed to go to failure at each set, by picking a weight which you can barely lift (if at all) the 12th time. Because at the point you're struggling the most is where the actual muscle growth will come from. It's the same with pull ups, the 2nd pull up that you're struggling with is where you're creating the most tears, because you're going from a fully stretched position to a fully contracted position. I recommend doing as many proper full range of motion pull ups as you can, and then when you can't do any more, use a resistence band or an assisted pull up machine, perform as many proper full reps as you can. Keep doing assisted ones until you can't do those with proper form anymore, at that point there's no use in doing cheated pull ups, because the muscles that matter are already tired anyway. By doing cheated pull ups you'll only get better at cheated pull ups because that's what you're training your muscles to get used to. Remember this, your muscles can't count, they don't care if you do 2 reps or 20, they only care about how much weight you're moving. If you create enough damage, they'll rebuild themselves so they can handle the weight better next time you work out. if you're not struggling on your last reps then you're not forcing your muscles to improve as quickly as they could.

[@CalisthenicsWarr]

Thank you so much for this fantastic video on how to correctly perform pull-ups! Your tips have inspired me for years to focus on proper form. Over time, my own form has improved significantly-so much so that my muscle definition is excellent (if I do say so myself!). I've also noticed how many people, with slouched shoulders for example, don't pay attention to proper form during their workouts and therefore miss out on optimal chest muscle development. Thanks to your advice, I've learned a lot, and combined with my own experiences, I can quickly see improvements in others when they adjust their training based on these tips. Keep up the great work!

[@Ridick1460]

When i do pullups i start with dead hang, engage the scapula and pull up, then I come back down and disengage the scapula going back to fully extended elbow dead hang. Is it wrong or should i not disengage the scapula but still have extended elbows (basically not going dead hanged)

[@Hexanitrobenzene]

Tiago Morais If you go down controllably and then release tension to dead hang, it's even harder (and a good form). It's like your every pullup is the first one from dead hang. When people go up instantly after the moment they extend elbows fully, they regain some elastic energy from tendons, thus the exercise becomes a little easier. The faster you go down (controllably), the more energy you can regain. Your version completely dissipates this energy and also slightly lowers the center of mass, thus is the hardest in this regard. However, I'm not sure about the benefits. I think of it as unneccesary overperfection, because it's essentially two exercises together, pull up + shoulder shrug (I hope it's called so), and cuts about 1 rep in 12, but you don't need to listen to me, 'cause I'm no expert :) It's a pity FitnessFAQ's didn't reply.

Can I use a drawing chalk and crumble it into powder

[@youngroy5656]

HappyLongNose great question

[@SpaghettiToaster]

No, drawing chalk is calcium sulfate or gypsum, sports chalk is magnesium carbonate. While calcium sulfate also works as a drying agent, you won't be able to grind it into fine enough dust to cover your hands without filling your skin ridges, which would reduce your grip instead of improving it.

[@Cuzjudd]

same breh

[@Nuclearcx]

it's not actually a form mistake since it helps engage your glutes, hamstrings and lower back in the pullup. It's only a mistake if you simultaneously loosen the rest of your core on the other side, particularly the abs.

[@acipshah]

@@Nuclearcx it is a mistake. You're tensing in two different directions. You want to transfer energy in one direction.

[@danielszandbergs2209]

I've been crossing my legs for 6 years, I guess it's never too late to learn lol

[@YuZeLuNa]

Daniel, you're content and knowledge is awesome and special about you that your knowledge and practically shows on your physic. my brother started calisthenics an year before you're videos take a part of his progression. thank you so much and love to see your videos again.

[@urmom8056]

Since when did Bruno Mars like pull up bar fails?! 😂

[@squirrel2770]

On the off chance that you'll read this, I'd like to recommend adding something like a red X or even an added "don't do this" message for the entire duration of clips where you demonstrate the wrong way of doing an exercise. In some videos you do it before the exercise, for some only use audio to express it, but occasionally people skip around or watch without audio or just lose focus during a bad moment etc. and can get confused. Appreciate your videos a lot though, thanks!

[@joeyabbs6881]

Bruno Mars liked this video look on his channel.

[@eddiexia3053]

leg position really brought my attention. Great video

[@MrPsychoPlayer]

I hate crossed legs most. It both looks ugly and wrong as you said but people who does it somehow thinks it is normal and looks cool. Because i see people cross their legs even when there is vertical room to extend legs. WTF

[@psycocoball]

i totally agree with you

[@juriteller8351]

MrPsychoPlayer i think the reason is that most people dont have any core streng and the bars a to low. So the only position to not touch the ground is with there legs crossed and raised up to ass. And then everyone does it because humans cant think for themselves.

[@diamondemerald116]

MrPsychoPlayer The only pull up bar I have is at a kids park where i can grab on to the bar while havng my knees bent, i need to cross them up to my glutes

[@damiansconberg4715]

MrPsychoPlayer I like it more

[@italianG03]

Definitely the kip up is most annoying. Thanks for this video. Super helpful. I used it today and my pullups went a lot better!

[@rowsaurus]

That guy done thousands of pullups during video recording

[@ArishiWeLikePlays]

Thanks a lot, I think many of these Pullup videos only highlight the obvious ones, while I've not seen others explaining the pulling arc one and a few of the others, which I've had as issues. Nice video :)

[@ghozihirzansyah9809]

1 month ago i can't do pull up, now, i can 5 with 3 reps , thanks

[@twang31]

5 reps or 3 reps?

[@yareyaredawa]

5 reps , 3 sets.

[@zamanhimel9680]

CeSayrise did he mean 5pullups total in 3 sets by any chance 😂

[@ewk4688]

Drop hand was one of my mistake I did , I think that really reduces the reps for me , thanks for the video

[@bufIIk]

...or maybe don't use the chalk and actually have some grip strength?

[@mikro455]

Exactly my words

[@EvanDonut]

bufIIk chalk is not really relative to grip strenght

[@bufIIk]

@@EvanDonut Please correct me if I'm wrong, but in my humble opinion: less chalk=less grip=more grip strength necessary to hold on

[@dp1569]

Some pull up bars like the one in my gym are very smooth, and in the summer when its hot it can get slippery from sweat. Chalk gives a little friction, just enough to keep that slip from being the limiting factor on your max reps. This whole argument is dumb anyway, our goal is to train pull ups not grip strength. IF you want to train for a stronger go ahead and train grip, but to sacrifice progress on the pull up because your grip fatigues before your back and arms your short changing yourself. My also humble opinion.

[@kdamienx3143]

Thank you that was the best instruction for pull-up I've ever linked on to I will use it

[@marshallemmett3313]

Kipping is my most disliked move. I blame Cross-Fit for making it popular. If they (they being Cross-Fir HQ) disallowed kipping pull ups, imagine how much more muscle the elite Cross-Fit athletes would have! I understand why they allow kipping currently, but if they said 'no kipping', I'd actually watch the Cross-Fit Games.

[@LarsRyeJeppesen]

Marshall Emmett Washed up loser olympics? nah

[@stacey2503]

Years later and we still deal with the hated killing pull up just so you know I cant recall the last time a Kipping pull up was done at the crossfit games they do butterfly and it’s just a different movement it’s not meant to be strict pull ups they do however put in strict handstand push ups do you have a problem with that too so or is functional fitness the problem . Every games athlete can perform strict pull-ups it’s just not efficient let it go this subject is worn out

[@panzer1364]

Crossfit gyms drill strict pull ups before any kipping. And any crossfit games athelete can do strict pull ups/muscle ups all day long. Unbelievable fitness and strength to be fair. I hate the hateing on cf just because of one movement having a kip. Get over yourselves and the snobery. The body moves in so many amazing ways, learn to train using all the ranges of movement. Not just limiting your range to a strict or nothing mentality.

[@Johny40Se7en]

Wicked tips and I've done a couple of these mistakes myself and it really does have a negative effect on performance, when done properly you can definitely do more pullups in one go so a better workout from the extra intensity.

[@PantaleonGeneral]

PACK CHASE i never get why people are into machines except from lat pulldown and seated cable row its way better to do either free weight or bodyweight exercise than hitting the machines

[@gursisingh1940]

@@PantaleonGeneral weights and machines help you get stronger faster. thanks to 6 months of gym bow I can do full back lever, one leg front lever and a straddle human flag, if I started only by doing calisthenics I wouldn't be here so fast, maybe ( and is a very bit maybe) I would be but definitely weighting 4-5 kg less than what I an now (67, was 60.5 when I started gym in januarry)

never gets old huh

[@biohack6800]

Keep in mind, not all people are created equal. Some have longer arms, shorter necks, better/worse shoulder mobility, etc.. What is natural for some, can be unreachable by others. So, if you are one of the unlucky guys/gals, unable to get your chin over the bar due to unique genetics - don't get discouraged! Just keep following this amazing tutorial as best you can, and you will improve your ROM and get great results. Cheers.
