@@ChengisAlwaysClimbing i think its either because of the biceps tendon having to work harder or the shoulder having to carry the weight in an unnatural position
@@ChengisAlwaysClimbingsimilar to how people say that full crimping leads to more injuries. The tension on your tendons increases with the angle. You're trading difficulty for tendon overloading, which can lead to tendonopathy, especially if the loading and deloading are not controlled. Just like full crimping tho, it's not the act itself that the problem is but intensity and duration combined with a weak structure. So, to follow the analogy, 3 finger drag your lock offs if you're doing them after session and hold full crimping to once a week. Not a doctor, this isn't financial advice 😂
How many times per week would you suggest stretching for flexibility gains? I'd like to do every other day or so but I fear it's too much and will result in losses instead and I'd like to hear from your experience because you have much more than me
i stretch everyday. some days I stretch hard and other days I stretch light. When you "lose" flexibility you're probably sore from the previous day stretching. In which case just go ahead and stretch at a much lighter intensity. Stretching everyday is what I would suggest
good vid, tho i think training them every single day might be risky for people new to lockoffs. ive personally experienced really bad multi-day bicep soreness when i first started training this, and given the big tendency of tendinitis that can occur when it comes to one arm pullup progressions i think doing it 2-3 times a week and allowing full healing is important when it comes to bicep/elbow health id wager a one arm lockoff is a strength feat that shouldn’t be expected until V6-7 level indoor climbing at least
didn't i say only do it whenever you train pull ups or go about climbing? I'm sure I did. But if i did not then yes, do not train it everyday. 2-3x/week works excellently
@ Any tips please? I tried Eric Horst 5*5 training with the hope to increase the reps to 10, but I ended up at 5 (I started from 3 and trained 5*5 with a resistance band).
@@Almountainmama if you want to get more pull up reps i suggest you look into 'greasing the groove' OR 'russian fighter pull up program' . they are both good options and helped me go from 2 reps to 19 in a year :)
shieesh, that's a lot of awesome content released in such a short period. Good stuff Cheng!
Thanks bro, I’m trying
I just started to train this, perfectt timing :D
smash it
Thank you! This video was really healthful!
failed a few climbs and i think lockoffs might be the answer. exquisite series, my mang.
i hope it works for you.
6:05 full lock off has very high risk of injury, don’t do that! Great video nevertheless ❤
really? how so? I've never heard this take before.

Why does this man never look at the camera?xD Great video
I’m loving this series. Particularly needed this one and it came right on time
hope you get it
What if I can’t do 10-15 pullups😢? The best I can do is 5.
it seems like its time to up them pull up numbers
