How to Do More Pullups

Hey friends! After I made the video on doing more pushups, people asked a very natural follow-up question
"How do I do more pullups? Does this also work on pullups?"
The answer is yes. Kind of.
Pullups are a different, inherently more difficult exercise than pushups. The principles remain the same but the numbers are different.
Like with pushups, the best way to increase your number depends on your current fitness level. Wherever you're at, there's a way for you to improve!
Here's the video about increasing pushup numbers: kzbin.info/www/bejne/eHO2nJeKlqp4h9U
Here's the video about progressing to pullups:
• You CAN do pullups, my...
How many pullups can you do? Follow the information below.
1.) 0-3: Work on PREPARING yourself for pullups. This can be done by doing easier variations. For pullups, this means horizontal pullups and jackknife pullups. You can do these on a stable table or railing. Having gymnastic rings makes it easy. You can buy these online or make your own (DIY tutorial on channel). Remember that just because you can do a pullup doesn't necessarily mean it's the best way for you to practice them. Take your time on the easier variations and you may improve faster! The easier variations also work to increase your strength and athleticism, so don't feel like they're a waste of time.
2.) 3-15: Work on developing your pullup STRENGTH. During this stage, you'll tend to build hefty chunks of strength and muscle. Your grip also gets much stronger. Enjoy this stage! Practice these 1-2 a week for 2-3 sets. Be safe, but push yourself HARD. Leave yourself plenty of rest time as you'll get stronger and more muscular during this stage. We grow when we rest, not when we train. So rest.
When you can do 8-9 repetitions with good form, you can explore "neurological training" of pullups. In essence, you can "practice" pullups without getting tired by doing many sets with low reps. For example, you can install a pullup bar in your doorway and do 1 or 2 every hour or every other hour while still "staying fresh."
For more information on this, check on "greasing the groove" metholodogy or the writings of Pavel Tsatsouline.
ONE THING I SHOULD HAVE MENTIONED DURING THE VIDEO is that this method doesn't exhaust your muscles and your muscle growth will not be nearly as fast as it would be with the hard sets. This is mostly for strength.
3.) 15+: During this stage, you'll likely be very comfortable with pullups. You'll heal quickly from them, so you can train them every day or every other day. Like with pushups, your sleep and diet will have a large impact on the number of pullups you can do on any given day.
You may find it more worthwhile to instead train weighted pullups or harder pullup variations (like working towards the one-arm pullup). If you train this way, you'll still increase the number of regular pullups you can do while building strength and muscle. Throw in a set of regular pullups every once in a while to remind your body of the movement.
However, the inverse is not true. Simply increasing the number of regular pullups that you can do will almost certainly not make you strong enough for a one-arm pullup even if you can do over 50.
Different training methods have different benefits, so find one that suits your goals and use that. You can always change it, so don't fret.
Hope this can help!

Good morning, friend! I've really been inspired and helped by your videos, particularly the latest one on the pushup improvement, and I had already tried incorporating that into my pull-ups. See this in the morning notifications was a welcome surprise. I found that even though I can only do 2 - 4 ok-ish pull-ups, what I CAN do is hanging shoulder shrugs / rotations. Basically hanging from the bar (feet in the air) and just starting the lift only using my shoulders, then releasing down slowly and repeating until I feel the burn and resting for a bit. Only seems to work for me with my hands facing away, for whatever reason. Thanks again for the great content! Have a beautiful day!!

[@BelugaSennah]

A good way to do the isometric warmup for the pull up would be trying to do a weighted one you can't possibly do, or having someone heavy enough for you to be unable to pull up. This allows you to contract the muscles in a stretched state, just be careful no to hurt yourself. If you are at the gym you could also try a lat pulldown with very heavy weights.

Trust me dude when I was about 15 I start wanting to get bigger and leaner to get girls LOL 😂. Anyways long story short , I was trying and trying my most at first was 0 as you could’ve imagined but now I’m 15 years and 8 months old and during that 8 months I trained so hard and now I can only do 33 I know for others it may seem a lot but when you do it it’s not actually a lot so keep grinding I believe in you my friend 😊.
