[@Kouenji_God]

Underrated channel. I hope one day , you'll get the recognition you rightfully deserve sir

[@CitizenAthletics]

Thank you so much! Just waiting! Going to keep chipping away and. wait for it!

[@brightknight1965]

Totally agree! I found this channel from Teddy’s Instagram and I’ve been binge watching all the videos!

[@a.brucemcdonald9038]

I have found slow eccentrics to be the most effective exercise for developing basic pull-up strength. Vary the grips and grip widths. Do them slow, slower and with pauses at different points.

I dont have any bands to the one legged pull up progression is perfect- cant wait to try it out!

[@atamagni7418]

Another excellent video. The progression is so helpful, but appreciate the rules. I can see what to do and how to prevent injury. Great information and explanation. Thanks so much. Gotta go crush some of these movements,lol.

[@mytemporallobeisshapedlike1796]

Awesome progressions and/or regressions,

[@CitizenAthletics]

Thank you!!

[@user-lq5hf1hq7d]

Great video. Just found your channel. Good job

[@MrPathorock]

one of the best pull up video

[@brightknight1965]

Thank you for the info! My first pull-up feels so far away but I love this progression. I’ve been working on inverted rows with a bar but it always feels tough to get my chest to the bar. Maybe TRX straps are a better option so I can rotate my wrists.

[@Yeni6HI]

I was thinking the same

[@CitizenAthletics]

If you can't get your chest to the bar, that's alright! We actually have a video on the inverted row you can watch for more help with it.

[@Prettysurgtechbabe]

This is so good! Thank you for this video! I almost gave up on doing pull ups!

[@CitizenAthletics]

You can do it! Be patient and consistent!

[@adomasjasiukenas1425]

So happy to find this channel! Doc, why don’t you use good all eccentric only pull ups? Or banded pull ups? To progress to full pull up! Thanks! 🙏

[@CitizenAthletics]

The eccentric pull up benefits from still working on the concentric, so might as well get it in as you have to come back up either way. For the banded pull up, we have that in our old progression video from about a year and half ago and opted to make a simpler version here.

@@CitizenAthletics thank you, sir! 🙏

[@mikiib4117]

Great video as ever. Quick question. How may times a week should this be trained? I do a ppl once a week with cardio in-between each session with one day off. Thanks!!

[@CitizenAthletics]

Depends, I'd recommend 2-3 times a week if possible with at least 1 day between.

[@mikiib4117]

@@CitizenAthletics great thanks. I had a good go of a different strategy to increase my pull ups from 0 with athlean x but found that whilst I did pull ups my form was shocking. This strategy looks to be much more realistic. Thanks for the great video as always! 👍

[@isatovaryoga815]

This is excellent!! I have gymnastics rings. I can do the exercises with the rings? It works too? This is just what I was looking for. Hi from Venezuela.

You are the best!

[@lauracorbin1340]

Awesome progression. Thank you very much! I did not hear u mention how often to do this program. Would you recommend twice a week? Also, is there a suggested grip for these pullups? I find supine and neutral grip is easier than prone. Should we try to master the program with the easier grips first or do you advise against those grips?

[@CitizenAthletics]

Thank you! I'd recommend 2-3 times a week if possible with at least 1 day between. Doing the easier grip first is a good option and then progressing to the harder options in time!

[@lauracorbin1340]

@@CitizenAthletics Ok, thank you for your advice!

[@fluffybull3935]

I stuck at five reps. No progress in recent month

[@CitizenAthletics]

I'd suggest doing the reps you can as you've done them recently and then add in this progression as an accessory program to do after it.

[@fayiz_Fz]

Does ohp/bench press help with pull up strength?

[@CitizenAthletics]

To a small degree, but not significantly

[@Gsr2011]

Is there a cheaper option than the trx that you've found that's as good?

[@CitizenAthletics]

I have the MD Buddy version which is cheaper and it's held up quite well. Haven't had it very long but it's been good so far. I like rings a lot too.

[@BBoyBFit]

Two ratchet straps, and gymnastics rings.

[@datjulesyboy]

How often are we to do this?

[@CitizenAthletics]

I'd recommend 2-3 times a week if possible with at least 1 day between.
