- If you can only feel pull ups in your arms, and you struggle to get the back to engage in pull ups, there are a few things that we can do to remedy this.
Today we are going to go through how we can ensure we are feeling the lats during pull ups and make sure. The larger muscles are pulling their weight in this movement.

getting good vibes from this. no judgement or fearmongering towards bad forms. no secret formula. no unneccesary anatomy essays. instead just useful tips explained in a calm and simple manner. thanks
You know it, Tom! 💪🏿
What the heck is fearmongering
I agree!
@@Jahyden so, scaring?
I like this guy
im a 19 year old female who has been doing strength training for about the last 10 weeks and was getting really discouraged over not yet being able to do my first pull up. after watching your video, and then trying again, I realized I had the strength to be able go do one pull up this whole time! the tip about keeping your arms parallel to take the stress off the biceps changed everything. thank you from the bottom of my heart.
This is unreal. I just shared this on my Instagram because it fully made my day.
For what it's worth though, I just made a YT video. So many watch videos for hours and never take action so good job on you for putting in the work and taking your pull ups to that next level!! 💪🏿
Quick, right to the point and informative. I dig it.
Thanks! =]
Music is disengaging.
agreed, punyama
You explain this better than most other videos I've watched on the subject. Thank you.
Probably the most simplistic view on how to improve pull up form. I absolutely love it thank you for the advice
I've been stuck at 12 pullups for like 6 months and it just hurts, not in the good burning way.
I was just flaring my elbows.
Very happy to have found this
That's brilliant! And yeah, I know the feeling. It can be so frustrating to plateau and not know why. Glad to have helped though! 👊🏿
I watched various videos, trying to understand how to use my back and engage the scapula and your explanations and examples were perfect! Simply stating 'flaring arms' solved everything. Thank you!
Ive seen way too many videos of how to do a proper pull-up, but yours was the only one that clicked for me. Thank you a lot! That made a world of difference for me!!
You're welcome 👊🏿
Thanks for the tips. I really love the short format - it's concise and keeps the content clear.
No worries!
Hands down the best instructional video for pull ups! I’ve been looking for something like this FOR WEEKS!
That's high praise right there!! Thank you!
Glad it helped 💪🏿
A well put together and informative video! Thank you! My entire back is disproportionately weak because of how much time I've spent at my computer. With only a few weeks of going to the gym so far, it has indeed been difficult to activate my back muscles properly during reps so this video has found me at the perfect time really. Thumbs up! We're all gonna make it brahs!
Can not beat catching up with the channel after few weeks away! Love the new music and camera work and editing, well done Andrew, it can be seen that you are growing and getting better plus the content is amazing as always!
Thanks Michael! Hopefully it'll keep getting better all the time!
Wonderful video. Elegant and clear presentation without unnecessary bells and whistles. This helped me realize that I was flaring my elbows, which was making it hard to feel the exercise in my back rather than my arms. Today's workout felt way better and I think it's going to help a lot lookingforward, so thank you!
You're very welcome!
And good on you for actioning the changes! Hope the pull up Wins keep coming! 💪🏿
My friend who is also in calisthetics for a long time told me exactly what you said, only your presentation really showed me how that should look. Also trying it out it really helped me make more reps, so thank you for actually making a short and informative video about the proper way to do a pull-up with lats instead of wasting 20 mins on nothing 👍
thanks mate, this is exactly what I have been looking for
Saw a couple of your video titles and can see your answering questions that others are afraid to ask! I subscribed for the empathetic vibes bro
I love the detail, and more importantly, the arrangement of the information you presented here. Each bit of information leading to the next in a logical progression. Very informative.
Thank you very much, Andre! 👊🏿
Thanks for the help man, I’ve been struggling to progress with my pull ups for months so I can’t wait to see how this will help
Keep going for it! The pull up gains will come 👊🏿
Thank you so much needed this, I’ve been doing lat pull down and stuff like that so my back is kinda muscular (for a teen anyway) but my pull ups always felt like more of an arm workout thanks again.
You're very welcome 💪🏿
I would recommend getting a v grip , often used for pull downs or a pair of rings , if you want to build your lats very young people or new trainers don't have mind muscle connection yet, which will come later, there will help ypu grow and force lat activation and isolation faster , plus both will require practice. With both, attach to a pull bar, fir then v grip attachment, just put it over the bar and it will cause close grip large activation of the kits through both the pull and release of the movement and the rings, well they speak for themselves
Pull ups are an arm workout. Pulling involves elbow flexors and humeral extensors. CKC vs OKC is the debate of greater interest. Not this bogus advice from Mr Knows Very-Little
@@1unsung971Top tier clown. Pullups are back movement, arms should only assist.
Stupid 😂@@1unsung971
Bro that makes sense now. Thanks man for the longest I’ve been trying to figure out why my arms was getting worn out before my back I gotta practice this
Best video I’ve ever seen regarding pull-up help. Thank you so much
You're very welcome! 👊🏿
This video really helps me! Thank you so much! It is the first video I watched from your channel but now I want to see more videos you made
Welcome to the channel 😁
This helped me so much! Thank you so much! The difference was immediate and so profound!
You're so welcome, Jaxon!
Fantastic video! Fantastic video making! I get so tired of video that offer information I would like to know, but they can’t make a video any shorter than 15 minutes. Thank you for getting to the point and providing excellent content
Short, snappy - that's the Cali to the Crowd way!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Been struggling with pull ups for years. These advices seem very handy and will definitely implement that next time. Subscribed ❤
Good stuff! Let me know how it goes 💪🏿
amazing content have been wondering about this for awhile
Loving the new intro 😍. Great video as always Andrew!
🔊😁
64 and plateaued at 4. Watching your pull up videos, my awareness of my scapulars have finally penetrated my old brain. You’ve taught me the difference between the arch back and hollow body. I’ve decided on the arch back. I’ll try to pay attention to my forearms as well. I’m also on a deadlifting journey as well. Thank you so much from this fanatical mountain biker.
Keep going 💪
You're very welcome! 64 and can do 4 pull ups is an awesome achievement! I'd argue most 20 year olds couldn't do one clean pull up to be honest!
Keep it up 👊🏿
Well done bud. I've been doing "pull up progressions" for nearly a year and I'm getting close to my first clean pull up.
@@glynhannaford7332 you’ll get it !
All good tips. I've been doing pullups for a couple of years and am still perfecting my technique. Proper form to engage the lats is crucial. Thanks.
In earnest that is the best mentality; 'always be learning'.
One thing I see with calisthenics is people jumping into weighted pulls too early so good on you for drilling down on working toward better form!
Very calm explanation. Makes it easy to understand! Instant subscribe
Welcome to the channel!! 🙂
The best explanation of what's I need to work on, thanks Andrew
No worries, Kerry 👊🏿
Best video I have seen explaining how to use your back for pull-ups. Thx!
Thanks! And No worries! =]
Superb. Straight to the point and spoken with deep insight. I like it!
You're very welcome! 💪🏿
I gotta say. I tried moving the angle of my arms and this allowed me to finally get my chest to the bar! Thanks man!
This is quality! Good on you for trying it!
bring on the pull up gains 💪🏿
Everything about this video was perfect! Subscribed!!
Haha! Thank you 👊🏿
Thank you! These tips immediately engaged my back.
Awesome!!! Now go get them pull up gains! 💪🏿
I've been working on achieving chest-to-bar pull ups for months now and felt like I havent made any progress. I just did my first full set simply by fixing my arm flare. Thanks for the tip. Great video
Mate that is phenomenal!
stories like this are literally why I make these videos!
Good on you, Ryan. Hope the pull up gains keep coming! 💪🏿
What i also like to do is to make more distance between your both arms while making pull ups. If you spread your arms wider, you can activate your latissimo even better.
Nice video, dude. Just short and to the point.
Excellent tutorial. Easy to listen to and understand! Thank you!
Glad it was helpful, Mike 👊🏿
Seriously, you’re doing the best fitness videos on TH-cam tackling these form issues that everyone else just neglects. I’m really loving your content and you seem to be a very a humble person which is also rare in this fitness industry. Please keep this stuff up!
Greetings from Germany
One small question if you don’t mind: is a arched back pull up also possible with rings? If so, how can I progress towards them?
Wow, thank you! that is very high praise!
Hoping to keep this going for a very long time, so don't worry about me going anywhere =]
In terms of arch pull up, yes you can, but it takes a bit more discipline. With the rings will wobble about and with a bar, it is very easy to know your target (get the chest to the bar).
That being said, it's a lot easier than hollow body pull up on rings!
With both, just try to record yourself to keep up a form check!
All the best man!
The change in feeling and sensations was instant. Great video 🔥
Brilliant, Gabriel 💪🏿🔥
cheers mate these were some fantastic tips, definitely gonna put them into practice.
Let me know how it goes 👊🏿
For the last 4 months I’ve been damaging my shoulders, biceps and destroying my brachialis🫣😮💨
These simple tops are a game changer. Thank you so much🙌🏻👌👍🏻
Excellent video, bro! I´d never seen these tricks on TH-cam. They make a lot of sense, I´ll try them!
Cheers Leonardo 👊🏿
absolutely fantastic, I know what the proper muscle activation is, but i cant feel it during the exercise and you covered it in 1:49. Love the constant pull up clips throughout the video
Glad it helped! 💪🏿
Wow this is excellent. So calm, clinical, and positive.
Cheers Alex! And happy you found it useful 👊🏿
excellent tutorial. looking forward to trying this!
Let me know how it goes! 💪🏿
Super helpful brother thank you! Lately my arms have been burning out faster than my lats during pullups but this video clearly explained why
Glad it helped! It is great once you know it! Hope you can apply this in your training and bring on the lat-gains! 💪🏿
Smart analysis and clear explanation. Thanks!
you're welcome, Marschal!
This has been a great video, short and concise, thank you very much!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you for the heads up on this mate. ❤️💪
You're welcome!
Just wanted to say man thank you for being so great, been struggling with this problem for a while now and it's so nice when you find out something isn't just going on with yourself but others as well, once again thank you and I hope you have a great rest of the weekend boss♥️
I know the feeling, James!
Glad this helped!
the comparison on the flaring arms was very eye opening. thank you very much
You're welcome 👊🏿
It's obvious when you see it which is why it can be so frustrating when it's pointed out but hopefully loads of pull up gains incoming for you 💪🏿
I am 5.5 (short🫠) and 50kg. I was underweight for many years so I have been trying to work out at home because I am too skinny and feel anxious to go to the Gym .. I have been doing pull ups and always wondered why my back never activated only my arms and shoulders felt the heat. Thank you for the video 👏🏻🤝🙏🏻🙏🏻
that sucks!
Gyms can really feel like intimidating places, and I'm sorry that you feel anxious about training there.
While some gyms can be cesspits of toxicity, most gyms really are welcoming and full of some amazing people!
Is training in a gym something you aspire to be able to do one day or do you prefer training at home?
p.s. glad the video helped you with your pull ups!
@@CaliToTheCrowd I started training at home to build enough muscle to be comfortable enough to apply for a gym.✌️so I do plan to go the gym but just not yet.
@@gollotallar6337how old r u??
I'm 5-5 and 77kg 🙃 I am overweight but this also means that gaining muscle for me is easier. My calves are ready jacked and my chest and arms are blowing up
whats yo age
Nice. Thanks for this. The scapula cue really helped.
no worries! Glad it helped 👊🏿
First video I’ve seen from you. Really impressed. Great presentation, great editing and demonstration. Really clear, useful and presumably science-based advice. Very professional. Thanks very much!

This was a brilliant video. Thanks brother 💪
You're welcome Joseph! 👊🏿
Genuinely fantastic video.
Thank you 👊🏿
easy to understand,he is an articulate speaker,,great info
Thank you 😁
Good video. I am not sure about others, but what has helped me is concentrating pushing my head back away from the bar as I go up. Every other part of my form naturally falls into the proper place. By the way, if you have never filmed yourself, you are not doing what you think you are doing.
Interesting tip, Jake!
I imagine that that would also support with trap activation, as it is the splenius and traps that pull the head back, so this would be a great cue for getting a deeper contraction.
Cheers for sharing this!!!
simple and no gimmicks,
