NEVER DO PULL-UPS LIKE THIS! | 10 Most Common Mistakes

[@athleanx]

The pullup is not the only exercise that is commonly misperformed. As a matter of fact, I made a video on how the squat is performed incorrectly and how to make sure you don't make those mistakes ever again - kzbin.info/www/bejne/eIuUhYiMp5l_fM0

Started doing pull-ups like Jeff recommends in October 2021. Could barely do any and never did them regularly for years. I do them first thing (after stretching), and now my first set is 20 reps. I will go do a non-lat exercise, and come back and do 10-15, and then do a third set of 10. I do that 3X per week. I'm 67 years old, 225 lbs, and a slender 6'7". I am confident I am nowhere near what will be my max number. I also occasionally (at the top) pull my body horizontal, but I cannot yet hold that position. I get people commenting on my reps all the time, because I've never seen others doing it like Jeff! Thanks, man!

[@JoeHernandez-lp2tw]

Back before I messed up my shoulder on a motorbike I could do a set of 25 and I could do the horizonal thing you are describing. I would crack 150 of them a night at times and also do dips and pushups. Anyways 2 years in the future my shoulder has slowly recovered and I'm now again starting to workout again. I can maybe do 10 pull ups on my first set if I strain myself excessively, but at the moment 5 seems to be where I'm at. I had forgotten these tips in the video which I had seen back then. I hope to learn to do 10 effortlessly within a month using these tips. I'm stoked listening to your story; it motivates me. Back a month ago I could barely hang on the dip position because my shoulder would show discomfort. So instead I had been trying to do isolated exercises regularly for overall strength. Then I started doing assisted dips on the machine with 30 pound assist. Then last week a 20 assist. And no pain. And today I decided to do a 10 pound assist and was going with it until I told myself let me try it without the assist and to my surprise I cracked 10. I got curious and cracked me 4 or 5 sets of them. I am so happy to be making a comeback.

[@goatlps]

LOL these two. Videos or it never happened. 150 reps LOL.

[@zcardman2007]

@@goatlps I get what you are saying, but I don't really care if you believe me. Joe doing 150 "a night" is doable if the sets are not too close together. A few years back (I was 60), I did a rotation of push-ups, wall-assisted handstand presses, and pull-ups over a span of several hours, doing non-workout things in between sets. I hit a peak of 400 push-ups, 80 pull-ups, and about 30 handstand presses, SPREAD over several hours. Try it and see for yourself.

Hey Jeff & the Athlean-X Crew. I would like to share my journey in regards to this video and as a way of thanking you for all your hard work! To everyone taking the time reading this, I hope my story can inspire anyone who's trying or wanting to make a change. In January 2019 I weighed over 105kg(232lb) at 180cm(5ft 11in) tall. I had no actual set goal to change my lifestyle at the time, but for some reason it happened in an unexpected natural way. The first thing I did was changing my diet by avoiding carbs and focusing on healthy fats. Basically LCHF, however not as a strict short term diet with the sole purpose of losing weight. More of a general lifestyle change where I simply did whatever I felt like doing, whenever I could and wanted to. In combination with this change, I completely stopped drinking Alcohol. Even though I had been drinking almost everyday for about 2 years (I was a Scotch-collector). Technically I could still enjoy a nice Scotch once in a while since it more or less contains no carbs if not zero (Depending on what kind). Decided to 100% exclude Alcohol regardless and after just a month I started to get noticeable results, 'before' any exercising. (My wallet also thanked me). This is where your channel/videos and especially Pull-UPs starts to play a major role. I happened to have a Doorway Pull-UP bar in the entrance hallway from years back (never took it down for some reason) which I passed at least 50 times per day. Because of my overweight and me barely moving around. I of course started to suffer from a lot of pain in my neck, shoulders and back as a result. So to relieve some of the extreme tension and pain in those areas/muscles, I started to simply 'hang' from the bar once in a while to stretch (since I passed it anyway). It helped relieving the pain/tension temporarily, but at the same time it made me realize how tragically weak I was. Simply 'hanging' from the bar was ridiculously exhausting and I couldn't pull my self up even an inch, which was devastating. However, the next several months I continued to hang from the bar everyday and tried to pull myself up towards the bar as if doing a normal Pull-UP. Having lost about 20kg(44lb) at the end of May/beginning of June by sticking to my routines, hanging from the bar and trying to pull my self up. I finally started to more or less reach the bar and it felt amazing! So I kept at it! Then you uploaded "The Official Pull-UP Checklist" Video that I watched several times and followed the checklist meticulously. At the end of 2019 I'd lost over 40kg(88lb) without counting the weight from muscle gain and now able to perform close to picture perfect Pull-UPs. Today, with great joy and pride! I weigh in at about 67.5kg(148lb), having gained over 7kg(15lb) muscle weight by eating healthy and doing Pull-UPs. I'm now able to do more variations of Pull-UPs e.g adding weights and progressively incorporating other muscle groups. Without having the proper knowledge to build a solid foundation for good results and avoiding injuries. I wouldn't have come this far. Your videos helped provide me with that. Which is why I wanted to share this story and to say: Thank you Jeff and the Athlean-X Crew for what you do. Best wishes from Sweden, - Nate

Jeff's videos are so motivating. All I need is his wisdom in order to do a pull up, right?

[@chintandesai8320]

Me : Entering the gym with my left foot. Jeff : *WRONG! Stop doing that.* Enter with your right foot, rotating those shoulders clockwise, squeezing your glutes and then enter.

[@sanchit629]

Jeff is the best! No comparisons. Always surprised at how much knowledge we get for FREE on this channel! Major Respect!

[@Matthew.Morcos]

Video summary: Squeeze inward as well as down Feet pointed downward 45 degrees, legs straight Extend all the way down but not relaxed Elbows in front Straight back with chest out Stop when the bar is chest level Use bands after reaching exhaustion

[@hsquirrel7407]

I've been doing the extend all the way down one for years :o Now I know, don't relax your shoulders!

[@encryptedwarlord7680]

I curl my body (is that a wrong way to do it?)

[@TravisMcGee151]

Encrypted Warlord : There’s no wrong way to do pull-ups. These kinds of guys run out of exercises to talk about so they make an exercise sound more complicated than it is. Biceps is a perfect example.

[@Irondog]

Great tip with pulling in. I also never thought about going for the 'chest' over the bar...Guilty! Solid tips. Thank you.

[@JetX42]

Just tried squeezing my hands together while doing a pull-up and let me tell you Jeff was not kidding when he said you feel like your floating on air.

[@Upward4ward1]

I've been doing pull-ups for a long time, but I learned some things with this video! Thanks!

[@michaelfortunato3117]

For a period of 10 years, every time I went through my doorway I hit the bar. I did hundreds of pullups a day for years, all without these eye-opening techniques. This is the best video I've ever seen on pullups. EVER. Instead of feeling like I accomplished 10 years of hard work, I almost feel like they were 10 years of WASTED potential!

[@korniliosjs]

I love that when people heard that your chin has to be above the bar in order for the pull up to count, they understood that they should become human giraffes instead of executing a good pull up

[@alienturtle1946]

Neck day bro

[@typer1911]

Proper pull up = chin to bar

[@typer1911]

@SpiritWolf2K yeah i just didnt want to say all that lol

[@lifewithbreion1392]

It sucks having long reach.... Its harder to bring your chest to the bar, man. I just get the best squeeze i can possibly get.

[@marxk4rl]

Just lean back, raise legs, head back and pull the bar to the chest as close as you can as if you would do pull-ups lying horizontally with your feet on the floor. Forget about chin over bar, it's not chin-ups, it's pull-ups. Chin has to be over the bar only in competitions as a measurement of a complete pull-up.

I am stuck on your advice now, as it have helped me with a lot of my muscle problem's. As, I have just started exercise for the first time in my life. For people like us who never played as a child, or played at school. At age 57; running into all sort of walking, calf, shoulder back, pelvis, core, arms, legs stiffness problems. YOU, have cleared most of them so far. God Bless You, and Thank you for Sharing, as I really do not have the funds to pay privately for training or go to a gym. But I have purchased some equipment's over the years in my home and, can now enjoy using them, again thanks to you. London. England.

He's borderline too lean imho; the point when he has so little body fat that he starts to look scary more than sexy.

@@Wistbacka i can see that.... Like borderline unhealthy. Its weird, crackheads and sick folks have low body fat. They look diesel sometimes.

[@Wistbacka]

@@lifewithbreion1392 Let me be clear: I'm aiming for 8-10% bodyfat for summer, but this is definitely lower. Still not as low as competing body builders. I dont think Jeff is in a risk zone yet. It just looks kinda "too little" at certain points of this video. On the third hand, Jeff's muscles are so big he will look much more ripped at e.g. 10 % than what I will do.
