How to Do More Pullups (than you are right now) by the time you're done reading this! The pull up is one of the most difficult, but rewarding, upper body exercises that you can do. It engages the lats and the arms together to overcome your own bodyweight and hopefully crank out some impressive rep totals! That said, most guys aren't doing nearly as many Pullups as they should be. Why? Because they aren't establishing the necessary stable scapular base they need to be able to generate force without energy loss. You're only as strong as your weakest link. Time to start addressing the weak link when it comes to pullups. #fitness #fitnesstips #pullups #exercise #workout

[@HexStatic-is_the_best]

Very helpfull

[@eviltaz78]

I'm gonna try this tonight. ..

[@FrankBruce]

People go to extremes trying to develop the lats (latissimus dorsi) when they can do miracles with their own body weight and the fact is that with technique and correct form you can do incredible things.

[@tennessean9461]

Don't lock all the way out, there are no muscles in your elbows

[@jazong]

Cool. I do scap pull-ups a lot, but always at the end of a workout. I'll start doing them before pull-ups and see how it works.

[@albadigiacomo6752]

Jeff, I wouldn't call it instant, but I'm told most women can't do even 1 pull up. Well, that was me. Then I progressed to 4 n got stuck on 4 for a while. Almost 2mths ago I started your program n I'm getting stronger. I went up to 6 pull ups, but I've been stuck there for a while too. I've been under a lot of stress lately but a huge amt of it was lifted off my shoulders this morning. I've been walking on air since 11am today. I felt pumped when I got home n just for the heck of it I decided to record myself doing pull ups just to compare myself to what you're teaching in this video which I happened to watch a few wks ago. My goal was to do 10 by December. I guess I have to set a new goal bc I managed to do 10 TODAY. I'm stronger. My body is transforming. My husband laughs, but everytime I do a workout, I call it Body by Jeff. I'm 49 n just the other day a lady at the gym said she thought I was in my 30's. I've also berm asked if I'm a body builder. Say what? Thanks for doing what you do.

Jeff, I went down (to my basement) last night and experimented with what you explained. I only did 3 pull-ups in the 1st set, no warm-up. Then I rested for 1 minute. Next I did the scapula warm-up you suggest. Then straight into the 2nd set and did 4 pull-ups (+25% increase), whooa. Next, I rested for another minute and did the scapula warm-up again and then right into the 3rd set. This time I did 5 pull-ups (and they all felt much easier than the 1st 3 which seemed a big struggle). Very happy to see a 66% increase over the 1st set just by watching a 5 minute video!!!

[@lapeciq]

***** Well im not disliking it, but to build real muscle you should do not that much pullups ( just about 10 or so) but with added weight. Muscle reacts to progressive overload, increasing weight, but not to increasing reps. With more reps you are only increasing muscle endurance but not growing them. Scientific research show that muscle can successfully overload with about just 4 to 15 heavy reps and that more breaks down more microtears in your muscles than it can repair and that impairs the muscle growth. So for example I can do 8 reps with my bodyweight but also 8 reps with 10 kg on my back. And that is how everybody should do pullups if they would be aiming for muscle building and not for the show...

[@iNappy]

thanks for letting me know. i really didnt know the difference. i usually go all the way down with under grip pull ups, but not with wide grip

Great video Jeff. This is exactly where I fail. One thing that has also helped me stabilize is a set of push ups before making sure I am focusing on squeezing the scapula on the way down. Really forces the shoulders back

I increased from 7 to 10 after doing this. I can't wait to do this another time and maybe go 12-13.

[@lyaworski333]

This is actually a good cue and trick for stabilizing the scapula. Remember thou, this guy weighs something around 155-165lbs and is 5'8, so doing pull ups for him is ideal. If you are six feet tall and/or weight around 200 lbs or more, pull ups are going to be more challenging. If you are carry extra fat or even extra muscle, that factors into it. This is a great tip on what to do before you start your pull ups, also do pull ups before you go doing anything else for back/arms if this is a weak point for you.

[@hahaownedlolz]

Lewis Yaworski I'd recommend pull-ups are your main back/bicep compound either way honestly. It's such an amazing exercise.

[@RapperRank]

MaskedArtist80 how long have you been in the gym for. I've been in about a year I'm a skinny fuck but very strong like. I've gone 40 kg on the shoulders on a full routine like so not when I'm fresh. When I first came in I couldn't even do one pull up proper I was swinging on the bar and everything couldn't even do one dip either I have no triceps. Now I do dips easy that I just attach like 20 kg plates to me to make it harder and pull ups I do back straight wide grip no swinging which is kind of cheating. I'm not very good at bench press though cus my arms are very long. Max I ever done was 100 for 3 reps.

[@maskedartist8017]

Lol so go kip up your reply on how terrible crossfit is and they all suck and without a kip they couldnt do anything. Because all we do is kipping pullups.

[@tcgtpl]

yeatts134 Nice. I have a barn that could use painting with that broad brush you're using for my comment. "What else could you kip?" Hmm...check out the kipping hand stand pushups and kipping dip videos for starters here on the youtubes. Oh yeah, there's a heck of a lot of kipping for Muscle Ups in CrossFit as well. "Do more research on good Crossfitters." That's what everyone who would be interested in CrossFit should do, I agree. I'm not, because I'd rather train for something than just exercise doing a bunch of movements thrown together with no thought attached. Besides, the top Crossfitters don't even do CrossFit for their training. They occasionally do a CrossFit WOD to check on their progress. I'm not saying all Crossfitters suck in my original comment or in this one either. I checked out this video to get tips on how to increase my pullups, and this guy didn't talk about cheating using momentum and adding the kipping movement like a lot of so-called CrossFit (or should it be CrossKip?) 'trainers' do, so I thanked him.

Like the speech in the first minute. I don't know why people think it's "cheating" to engage other muscles beyond your target isolation.

It's about the quality of the rep not the quantity.

[@der9cerstorer]

I must say. Thank you very much Jeff. This helped me a lot. My problem is this one. I have the necessary strength, but I don't have a pole to hold onto. Instead I have a slippery tile surface to hold onto, and which doesn't allow me to move my arms that much. It's mostly my biceps doing the lifting, and my fingers trying to not let me slip away. Now I've moved on to the balcony, where the surface is made out of concrete, and where the base isn't that thick, so I can move my arms around. The finger problem still exists, but It's a massive improvement. That combined with your advice has really helped me out a lot. I can still only do 10 pull-ups at the concrete balcony, and around 5 at the slippery tile surface, but right now I am training my base. Your advice has helped me out a lot, to which I thank you.

Now I ll try to follow ur instructions n ll check how can I improve my 4 pull up to 10. Wish me luck n I come back once again with my 10 th pull up.. Thanks for sharing ur knowledge..

[@inbredagogo]

This guy is cutting edge on these exercise techniques. I wish that I would have known this stuff years ago.

[@Pixiz101]

Decided to do a pull up today for the first time, with no training whatsoever. I managed 2..is that weird? O.o

[@EditsByErky]

+Safina no

[@shiwaro-kun5744]

+Safina Thats normal. I did 2-3 in the beginning aswell.

[@EditsByErky]

Shiwaro -kun i couldn't do 1, i could do 1 chinup, and i was skinny. that was about a year ago and now i can do 8 pullups :)

[@tmapplesgaming2271]

My first time doing pull-ups I got 3-4 so I guess it is normal :)

[@isaiahstarkey7172]

I did 23

[@mohammedhabibhashmatchef6909]

I dont have good rods to do pullups

[@mohammedhabibhashmatchef6909]

This monster I want that :w:

[@yusefendure]

Buy a Perfect Multi-Gym pull up bar from Walmart. It's cheap, the set up is easy, and it fits over the door so you can do these at home. I'm now up to 20 reps a set.

[@ImBobbyProductions]

what if you cant do any pullups?

[@Snoopy-pc6ub]

Do negative pullups by jumping from the top of the bar and slowly lowering yourself

[@Mendalar]

Watch his "Pullpus vs Chinups: The BIG Differences!!" video if you haven't already, there he explains what to do if you can't even do one pullup.

[@MsRAJDIP]

You have to try doing pull up, best way is to take some assistance from some body who will push you at the time of pull up. To gain strength of increasing pull up reps, you have to do it everyday.

[@leonmane1880]

+Rajdip Khan what if you're doing a 4 day upper/lower body split? still recommend doing them everyday? wouldn't it hinder recovery for the next upper body day especially if you're doing rows as well?

[@MsRAJDIP]

long live MAG If you are trying to develop any weak body part, you need to workout it more often than other body parts. When you are not able to do proper pull ups, that means your lat muscle are very weak. It will not be strong unless u hit it more often. For an example you are able to do 3-4 proper pull up in 1st set. after 3-4 you can add another 3-4 with assistance. Continue only 1 set for every day and after 2 week you will be able to do 6-7 pull up. Doing 1 set every day will not hamper your muscle growth.

[@dolebiscuit]

That warm up actually noticeably helped me.

[@mikeessner3112]

It works. I did 2 warm up sets of this(pull up assisted machine at 50lb 20 reps so i don't get tired), before i went for regular pull ups. Old record was 7 with an ugly 8. Just did 9.5. Not only that but my second set would usually be 5-6 reps. Second set today was 8 with only about 45 sec rest, followed by a set of 7. Left the gym happy. Thank you.

[@gaston3905]

I'm a 17 year old straight male from California and can do 21 strict pullups. Yea no one gives a fuck dude lol

[@maskedartist8017]

no one cares that you are straight dude

[@gaston3905]

i was bashing on people commenting how many pullups they can do dude, it was a joke.

[@maskedartist8017]

Gaston Banuelos all good brah

[@LazATG]

Lol dude you have terrible humor :Ρ

[@gaston3905]

call it what you want i was just bashing

[@_divinityyy]

Friendly reminder: His eyes are up there

[@ieatmommy]

If you use technique, will it help you in doing a muscle up/doing more muscle ups? An answer from someone will be greatly appreciated.

[@Jjb-gk4ce]

Yes technique is very important

[@yousefsafah5412]

We use both of these techniques in the Army to improve on pull ups. This works, great video!

[@cweb1988]

I'm definitely weak in those points. Need to do this for a while. I really like that you explain the science and principles and such behind this stuff in easy ways.

[@tordkristiankaroliussen9719]

Who else think Jeffs voice sounds like Ross from Friends?

[@philinsydney]

If I could do one pullup it would be an increase LOL

[@shimawitz5748]

This didn't work, thanks for embarrassing me at the school gym

[@ToastyMeadows]

lol

[@Delta3angle]

Doesn't help when your weak

[@coolblizzard1993]

+Shim Awitz If u are not able to do even a single pull up then ofcourse it won't work. That just means that u r weak. Hahahaha

[@shimawitz5748]

If i wasn't weak and couldn't do pull ups tell me why i would be watching this video?

[@sme1namedhannah]

It not like you gone get a six pack just by watching a video

[@timdolan4207]

Your videos are excellent. Hitting all of the hidden weak points I could never figure out how to solve for. Fantastic. Can't wait to put it to work. Thx!

[@Sheik06]

This is very true, there is also another video here on youtube of a Major woman of the US Marines explaining something like this too for the pull up training. I was able to do 17 pull ups when my max has always been 14 or 15. Me, like many others, didn't use enough the technique moving THE BACK and was always relying a lot on the biceps. Your upper back is much stronger than your arms, common sense but I didn't know. Good video.

[@SAHUMY]

papi!!!

[@brucedacynic704]

Right ? That chest already had my attention.

[@KartTrackReviews]

Step 1: Do a pull up.

[@DenisTheMennnace]

I can do 20-25 pullups. This exercise hasn't helped me at all to increase this amount.

[@CaptainKilljoy-yo1yi]

dang u gotta move on to weighted pull ups man

[@oldgadget7151]

I could barely do 3 to 4 close grip pullups, hands just outside the shoulder. Using your scapula warmup, just cranked out 3 sets of 5 each. In doing so, I could feel the evidence afterwards of having done much more work on the upper back. Usually when someone says, do more reps instantly, it never works but I want to thank you, Jeff, for the instant gains. Just in time too, turning 60 in a few days.

[@stettan1]

I really love that Jeff has written summaries for his clips.

[@IlyasBechchari]

u have one of the most beautifull biceps i ever seen

[@von2782]

I can do 11 I’m gonna do these workout and edit how many I did Edit; I can do 12. P.s you look like Baki’s Dad

[@beefahoybillybob1430]

Strongest guy in the world! Can't wait for season 3!

[@lucadellasciucca9701]

ever heard of "full range of motion"? u are doing half pull ups right there

[@ProjectSkrillexNL]

You shouldnt go all the way down during a pullup because it will rest the muscle and fuck up your elbow joints

[@Elahking]

+ProjectNL So that might be why I always get pain in my elbow from this exercise? I´m going to try what you just typed, plus the tips in the video. Thanks mate!

[@ClaimedPigs]

You're fucking stupid

[@lucadellasciucca9701]

ProjectNL the fact that u go all the way down doesn t mean u don t need to keep contracting shoulders back and arms!!! but i m not trying to convince anybody here, keep doing your half pullups!

[@lucadellasciucca9701]

Harry McDermott i think that stupid is someone that just types "you'fucking stupid"!!! but it s just my opinion!

[@miguelsantana8357]

I find that repping out some puhsups and doing bent over arm circles really prepares you for your set of pullups. The push ups help you with scalpula protraction and really help get the blow flowing in your body. The Bent over arm circles are also a great way to warm your shoulders and erector spine as well.. This helps ME with my pullups

[@ManuelVCano]

Just tried this and I went from 3 wide pull ups to 7. Definitely going to incorporate this, thanks Jeff
