Very nice plan, want to try out it in my next block but i have a few questions left: 1. is it still working if i use Pullups as the second exercise in my workout, for example after benchpress? 2. How often do i need to train in a Single week? You explained that you try to make progress once a week but do you also train pullups just once or do you train it more often and just adding weight or raps once a weak instead of every workout? I know I could ask in german but try to make this comment also helpfull for people who dont speak german, even if my english is not the very best ✌🏼
1. Yes, you can. Pull-ups being the second exercise, you might eventually have a little less strength, so I suggest you alternate the order from session to session/ week to week to match the progression. 2. If you want to progress on a specific movement, training it 3x per week at different intensities is probably the best option. If you are starting with pull-ups, an option would be to dedicate one day to the classic pull-up, one day to band assisted pull-ups and a last day to negative pull-ups. If you are more experienced, alternate weighted and bodyweight pull-ups, as doing only weighted pullups won't necessarily increase your max reps. Viel Erfolg 💪
I hate to be a language nazi but it is pronounced linear almost like in german spoken "linea". I really appreciate the high level of content on your channel so I cant help myself. ☮ 🙏 (also bi weekly progression is spoken "bei wiikli")
@@MichaSchulz He is asking which method is better to increase pull-up 3rd step you talked about or if he did weighted pull-ups for 1st set for 6-8 reps and a 2nd set of weighted pull-ups to failure.
What about EMOM? I'm coaching a friend of mine and we started with EMOM of 11m and 3 reps and we've worked our way to 30m EMOM. He was able to progress from 7-8 to 12 pull ups in the span of 5 weeks or smth like that
Dude I struggle to feel my lats during whole pull ups I literally tried every method to feel my lats Do you have anything to teach? BTW I can do 25 unbroken clean pull ups
Try doing single armed lat pulldowns before to pre activate and feel your lats. I used to have the same issue and it helped me quite a bit (also got that tip from this channel).
Grip + pushing past the burn starts being an issue around 25 reps. Respect to "reps and sets" athletes and "multi rep" competitors but would rather just work on 1rm and low/moderate weighted rep ranges
Hello Mischa - thanks for the great content and i have a question regarding the last technique AMRAP top sets. I get that idea of progressing in the top set and the other 2 serving as moderate sets with some added weight and with for example pullups/dips thats pretty clear, but my concern is about pike pushups, which i now primarily do and want to improve - should i do it with the same design (so adding 2-3 kg via weight vest), or possibly raising my legs to increase the difficulty without the added weight? (but that is probably way bigger step, than adding 2-3 kg to current progression?).
Pike push ups are not a very suitable exercise to use for that system as you figured it’s hard to load. And you also don’t really need a system like that for pike push ups as you can use low reps all the time with matching progressions 🤝
@@MichaSchulz OK, thanks again for the reply :) But since i like testing various things i will try to add the same weight via weight vest to Pike Pushups and we´ll see how that works :) I am not chasing some arbitraty number of reps, but i want to have really solid base in the basics before i jump in to some advanced stuff like the first progression of levers etc. :)
im a simple man, i see the words "micha schulz 30+ reps" i click
Must have been disappointing to see the whiteboard 😂
@@MichaSchulz 😮💨 well micha, they say hope dies last
Still the best Channel on TH-cam IMO when it comes to programming .
Thanks for the video. Right now i am stuck at 21 pull ups
Let‘s see if strategy 3 will do a good job for you!
Thats some place I would not mind being stuck at. Thats pretty amazing already. I can do 7 with + 20kg but high reps I struggle with.
@@takeiteasy8847 same here , I can do 5×5 20 kg pull ups but without added weight I don't see any progression

Did 30 strict pull-ups as a hs sophomore, now a senior and really want to get that strength back to hit 40😂

what is better for grtting better at pullups
step 3
or
Doing just 2 sets of pullups with weights for 6-8 reps first set - 10-12 second set
I don’t know what you are talking about
@@MichaSchulz He is asking which method is better to increase pull-up
3rd step you talked about or

i want to reach the 25 push ups and 25 australian pull ups before starting with the gym
Can i combine this program with hypertrophy somehow? Dips for push days and pull ups for pull days.
You will build muscle on every rep range if it is trained closed to failure 👍🏻
Hi Micha, this method can be found in your book?
Nope, the book is not programming focused
@@MichaSchulz thanks, btw great video 👏

Are you making back gains? If yes, no need to work on some mind muscle connection

@@MichaSchulz honestly I don't know cuz I work my back hybrid
@@takeiteasy8847 very nice dude thanks I'll try it and let you know how I feel
This method is best for Once or twice sessions per week ?
1-2 sessions
I can currently do 3-4 Pullups so how long would I rest in between sets
2-3min
@@MichaSchulz thanks
Do you recommend doing this or using bands bc I currently use bands
Do you think a mechanical drop set would work for increasing pul ups. I have seen it on TH-cam . I can current oy do 6 pull ups
From my understanding of training I would say it’s a waste of time. It will just fatigue you morr
Grip + pushing past the burn starts being an issue around 25 reps. Respect to "reps and sets" athletes and "multi rep" competitors but would rather just work on 1rm and low/moderate weighted rep ranges
Yes it’s impressive type of training, few people realized how hard that actually is
In step 3 i do 1 x AM reps and 3 x 4-8 reps range back off set with weighted?
Just rewatch the passage from the video, you are missing some important things.
how many times a week can I do these workouts if I wanna do only 3 sets of pull ups and dips? right now i do it 3xweek
2x, if you add a 3. session I would use a variation of the exercise that tackles possible sticking points
how many times in week i do ?
You decide. 🙏
