Years ago, in the early 2000s, a bodybuilder told me to pick a number like 50 pull-ups. Then do as many sets as it takes to get 50. After a period of time, I got to 50 pull-ups within a couple of sets. Took time, but it works. You don't need to over compicate things.

Bro DJ is a MONSTER. Solid strength muscle, none of that fluffy stuff.

[@millemaolchannel8608]

Great, GREAT video! Thank you VG2 and DJ!!!

[@clintwelch9843]

Great content as always! So true and to the point. After 20 years of injuries the hardest thing to overcome was the ego. Working someone else’s cadence huge game changer. See the Royal Marines beep test for push, pull, sit-up. Absolute killer.

[@BoilerBones03]

Enjoyed. Just started my pull up journey. 💪🤘

[@mistarmer]

Good stuff. When I was in the Marine Corps, I started working out with my roommate. After a few months of doing lat pull-downs my pull-up capability drastically improved.

[@BurnerTurner]

My lats are stubborn but they are growing slowly but surely. I want some fkin wings brother.

[@mascasa7502]

Many thanks for the video! Always learn something about physiology and different approaches to working muscles. It's a marathon not a sprint.

[@eneasgonzalez4693]

This technique actually works! Kudos to you guys! Now I see why freaking DJ is in freaking beast mode permanently!!

[@oiitzME1266]

Thanks for the tips

[@MikeHonchoActual]

THANK YOU! 🙏

[@LC-in5or]

Thanks for the info. 1 rep sets with maximum force will also get your pull up strength up.

[@ndubs734]

Thank you!!

[@dharmaram7527]

Thanks, Vernon!

[@c4turtz]

Listening to this is like therapy for me. It's my happy place right now. Thank you warriors for all the great work you put in.

[@vernongriffith4]

appreciate that and glad it is helping you!

[@playersrun1]

Finally gave me an answer about where to put my thumbs

[@ssaafur]

Going to incorporate this. I've got a frozen shoulder so hanging is not fun but I'm doing 15-20 sets of 3-4 pull ups/set with a quick hold and slow full drop and then doing chin ups the next day with supinated/pronated hangs. This looks like a good in between method to incorporate into the days I do dead hangs. Thank you respectfully.

[@boogeymanburpees3470]

Fantastic video. Let's get a pushup/situps episode bros. Many of us want to learn how to get our numbers up from the pros. Keep fighting the good fight 💪

[@michaelarenal1578]

Wish I knew this 20 yrs ago.

[@murtazaucar7850]

waiting for push up version

[@christors]

great content boys! keep at it

[@longriflem14]

Do you have any Tips to gain pull up confidence again, with an Elbow injury. I have radial tunnel syndrome in my right elbow. And as soon as i grab the Bar and get weight on my arm just because painful and i lose power holding but way more so pulling.. Bands are only a mild relief. Any help guidance would be greatly appreciated. I'd like to get back to my 20 rep base.

[@GorgoMixiii]

Dj and Vernon are absolute legends. I would trust these guys with anything. I would even eat shit if I am told to do so

[@Duar1503]

Weird

[@NickyAztec]

What?! 😦

[@jakew2111]

lolololololololololol

[@dylanh3184]

Vernon, can you ask DJ what kind of shorts those are. The multicam ones he always wears. I’ve been looking for them.

[@vernongriffith4]

Tactical Distributors makes them

[@AFGixxeR88]

How is the reverse pull-up technique he is talking about different than a weighted pull-up? He straps a band to the heavy KB the attaches the strap to a belt?

[@melancholia9399]

I think the difference is a conventional weighted belt is equally heavy throughout the entire motion whereas with the band it's heavy resistance at the top of the pull up but little resistance at the bottom. Makes it a bit lighter for efficient gains I assume.

[@raijinoni5164]

DEAD HANG PULLUPS !!! For that voice in head to come out and say nice things . But DJ at 12:13 min your posture is solid I do not think if you tight lat attachment for your arms go back behind your head without arching. That said, Athlean-X did give another pointer that I think may help anyone trying to get their first pull up or first 10 pull ups i.e. reverse bi curl. It builds brachialis muscle that can help with a lot of pulling to top of bar with. And pointer 2, keep the whole posterior chain tight .

[@classact9557]

Inquiring minds would like to know. Is it actually legal to hold the bar with one hand and shake the other out when doing the pull-up portion of a SOF Selection PT test?

[@jonw1958]

You could ask the Cadre testing you if you are in a more open-minded pipeline; like SF... They will probably consider it and let you do it. You try that in Rasp and they will probably kick you out right then. I would not depend on that, do it how they want you to.

[@cjterry1270]

both hands must remain on the bar at all times during that portion of the PST or PT test that you're taking.

[@un_cog9677]

7:54 😁

[@MRqdrlRxZ02xMi0]

The amount of knives and fire I feel in my left forearm stops me from doing this and for holding longer than one second. It's the only exercise I can't do

[@keaganairey1413]

You've probably got tendinitis. I am a welder, my body takes a beating, especially my arms and shoulders. Chinups are painful for me but pull ups aren't. Warm up your forearms with wrist rotations and try changing your grip width. You might also have an issue with your shoulder. Get it checked out by a physio.

[@Chertoff88]

This would be more inspirational if the guy doing the example looked more like me and not Conan Biker Superman 😂

[@ryandenina7735]

Heavy deadlifts and hanging on a pull-up bar for max time

[@MatthewMcCurtain-rn1sg]

In the words of Stephen A. There’s that bad man

[@giabyul]

Good info but in my opinion to do more pull ups just keep doing more pull ups. I got 33 got more coming. I do sets 33, 18,maybe 16 when I feel strong. First second third set reps 2 min rest.

[@greegearl1542]

Try to distance yourself from GBRS if you can.

[@ducekilla111]

What are you talking about? Who are you talking to? Why? These guys are studs and they know what they’re talking about.
