In this video, Tim demonstrates the chin-up squat, a member of the LongStrength family created by Dr. Leonard Schwartz. This is a fantastic movement for building your arms and back with an appropriate load (your body).

I do a similar movement with suspension straps. Great shout out to Dr. Schwartz and heavy hands.

[@bricemenaugh4828]

Yep! I used to do these years ago

[@endo9913]

Well I tried it on rings and did 40 slow reps without trying too hard. I was 64 yesterday so I try not to red line my old ticker anymore! It’s a great exercise Tim, thanks for sharing it!

[@OriginalStrengthSystem]

Nice work!

[@lsh-zi2lc]

I also have been doing this with rings👍

[@iancable2863]

I love this. The rehab/prehab potential of that kind of whole body push/pull, compress/decompress combo ... wow!

[@andreasdavids3146]

Love it! And you can do it in the doorstep with an adjustableb pullup bar between the doorjambs

[@adamandersen5848]

Another great move thanks Tim

[@EdwardsNH]

Bonus points for the Charlie Brown reference. No D- for you This looks an awful lot like standing rocking! Nice

[@EllisThings]

These are great. Particularly if you can set up with rings - you're free to rotate the shoulders

[@OriginalStrengthSystem]

Rings are nice

[@petriaspvik]

Tried this yesterday. Chin-ups and pull-ups. Both worked. Great exercise and will use this more often!

[@OriginalStrengthSystem]

Great to hear!

[@pamelaflores4129]

Awesome! I used to love the pull up/dip machines, but this concept is way better.

[@endo9913]

Thank you very much for sharing this. I’m going to try it next time out!

[@armandoladegas3964]

Awesome, thank you!

[@rodneyhammon1793]

I’m gonna have to try that one. Looks interesting. Thanks for the great effort you put in and always trying to keep us moving. Take care of my friend.

[@OriginalStrengthSystem]

Hope you find it useful!

[@louiearias1982]

The Mayas we’re doing that exercise centuries ago🤷‍♂️

[@robertwhite2449]

The Charlie Brown reference 😂. This is a great move. After playing around with it on a fixed bar, you can also 'push' yourself down to also get some overhead pressing in as well

[@OriginalStrengthSystem]

I need a fixed bar!

[@robertwhite2449]

​@@OriginalStrengthSystem Maybe just load it up with weight plates might work?

[@steverabbits]

This is a brilliant idea! Dunno why I've never seen it before.

[@OriginalStrengthSystem]

Suns out Guns out!

[@StuntMug]

I've been thinking about this exercise for a while now, would be great to introduce certain populations to exercise. Also the Dip Hinge (yes D i p) would be the counterpart. Glad I'm not alone in thinking this is worth something.

[@andreasdavids3146]

No you are not😂 watch Out for the Mike Tyson Push Up too😂

[@OriginalStrengthSystem]

We call those rocking pushups

[@OriginalStrengthSystem]

You’re never alone!

[@peterparker5166]

Excellent content, thank u

[@OriginalStrengthSystem]

Hope it’s useful!

[@Ricky-Noll]

Tim this is great! I have also enjoyed the push-hinge

[@Ricky-Noll]

I did one “pick 2” session where I superset the push-hinge and the squat-pull. This video reminds me I should do that again.

[@OriginalStrengthSystem]

That’s a great session!

[@hilltopper600]

i do these with rings

[@richardhoover1439]

Like previous comment I do this not with bar or suspension trainer, but rings. However I usually do. 10's. Today I will try the high reps😮

[@OriginalStrengthSystem]

Feel the Swole!

[@asfasfd7772]

Schwartz was an interesting guy. I think he made moves like this because he thought intense strength-training and Valsalva was detrimental to the heart.

[@OriginalStrengthSystem]

I did not know that!

[@keith4957]

Great one Tim thank you. What would be a great time or rep range to work towards

[@OriginalStrengthSystem]

It all just depends - I think it’s worth exploring. You could do 100 reps at time, a session, or per day. You could do 10 minutes of time, just getting the reps you can get in and resting as needed until 10 minutes expires. No hard rules, just pure fun.

[@keith4957]

P​. OK I'll start with 100 total then maybe once or twice a month go crazy for time or 200 reps. I think doing the rope would help my grip immensely

[@noosphericaltarzan]

I think it would be interesting to do it with a single ring and a pistol squat, and just alternate after so many reps. Maybe use a little box so you don't fatigue the hip flexors.

[@OriginalStrengthSystem]

That’s a great idea!

[@noosphericaltarzan]

It's your idea. I just want to progress it :-P
