Thank you, Sir. At 60 I can pull out 5 proper reps, maybe 6 on a good day. Will give this a try - looks better than various other schemes attempted. Thank you for sharing. And from Vet to Vet, thank you for your service.
I started implementing this when you posted it and I'm up to 6 reps from 4. As a woman in my 40s I don't expect to add a lot of reps rapidly, for me this is great success. I really appreciate the knowledge you share here. The freaking bicep/hammer curls right before getting back on the bar are savage but I can't argue with the results. Thanks!!
i did this 2 years ago. I practiced pull ups for an hour and a half, at 4 a.m, like y show us, in a park, because I was afraid of other people's eyes, and I was ashamed of not knowing how to do pull-ups.Y. I added dips too. After a few months, I was pyramiding. Then after a few months, I was doing sets of 7/8 repetitions. . then I had to do surgery. Stay 6 months in bed . I can't accept to start over from zero..... But seeing this video remotivates me! First time I see someone doing exactly what I was doing! THANKS
What did you have surgery for ? I hope it wasn’t fitness related . As soon as I started getting good at pull-ups started feeling this sensation in my shoulder like it was tearing . I’m thankful I can still do chin-ups with no issue but no matter how much time passes pull-ups do something to my left shoulder.
This is amazing and coming from a professional too. Fatigiuing/warming up the forearms etc with the dumbells has also helped/eliminated all my wrist pain as you mentioned in your other pullup videos and I never skip this step. THANKS for sharing your knowledge with us and 100k plus more followers here we come.😀💪👏
Great Video thanks! As an athlete way back I used to churn out sets of 30 chins with ease but as middle age creeps in and a lack of time for proper training then these little tips will help keep me at the 15 reps comfortably
Good to kown your time line. i am only starting off from zero pull ups and i have the goal of achieving my first muscle up in 3 yrs. i think this sounds realistic now ! maybe later.
I've been doing pull-ups for years. I started initially doing nothing but calisthenics for several years until weights became part of the picture. Fast forward, I've been able to slowly build up to 290 lbs om a 6'3" frame over the course of a decade. Needless to say, doing pull-ups now feels like weighted pull-ups, Lol. Thank you for putting out this content. I plan on putting these great tips to practical use.
Great video, still I can do some series from 5 repetitions but I feel this is the best guide I have seen around and only 10 minutes short. Thanks for sharing.
Great video. I really wish I could do this but having torn my left bicep near the elbow and my right bicep near the shoulder years ago, I am afraid of doing more damage at this point in my life. I am 64 now and muscles don't behave like they used to. Anyway I have sent this on to my daughter who works out like a beast to show her your methods. Thanks again and I love your videos !
If we can get you to at least control your bodyweight in a safe manner I think you’d be surprised how far you can take it! Start with push exercises and everything surrounding the prior injuries and that will help get more blood to the areas that need help. Baby steps are still steps!
Semper Fi brother way to bring great information to the masses. Wish this info was available when I was in got up too 18 before I got out but was always around the 13 to 15 range for the longest time untill I really started to get into weight training.
Thank sir,found your video on Facebook,then immediately go here and found this one,hope this help me since I'm really struggling doing pull up(I can do only 2 pull up right now).Hope you see this comment,and how many days for me to recovery after doing this exercise?
Great video. Thank you! In the first half you say 3 - 4 sets each of the 90 iso holds, top half pull ups, and top hold. In the second half with the curls + 90 iso hold, hammer curls + top iso hold, and then single arm hangs, are those single sets or also 3 - 4 sets each? Thanks again!
Hey there SSgt. I recently discovered your youtube channel after having decided to get better at pull ups, and it is has been very helpful . Question; how times a week would you recommend doing this workout?
Hi I was just wondering as someone who is exercising 5 days a week...mondey to friday, how often should I do pull ups??? Should I do a rest day from pull ups or is it ok to do them every day?? I usually can almost do three but I always have problems with the last bit from 90c and upwards. After no assisted pull ups I do band assisted pull ups and I try do do them as strict as possible..and I do heavier and heavier bands. Today on my heaviest band assisted pull up I did Archer pull ups... just two though :D I`m not sure if that helps but it was fun. :)
Hi Michael! Thanks for another amazing video! I have a question here: I can do 7 pull ups casually (9 or 10 max) and hang with two hands for 50 to 60 seconds, but when I try with one hand like in this video - it's no more than a second or two. Any suggestions on how to improve this exercise?
So if you saw how I had my hand on the side support for a moment I would use that as a support with your free hand to take some of the load off your main hand. Do that in equal amounts on both sides and your grip strength / confidence will improve a lot!
ill be doing this. I just been doing pyramids 1-5-1 and plan to add 1-6-1. Havent maxed out in months probably could do 10 except my teres minor has been kicking the crap out of me from boxing...
20lb? I dont even own any that small. Heres the real answer, go do lat pull downs until you work your way up to doing the entire stack, then do pull ups exactly the same, probably with a 45lb plate or two or three along for the ride, because thats what you need. Thats what I did, works great.
When I turned 40, I set myself the impossible goal of doing a single set of 40 pull-ups. I made steady progress up to being able to do a single set of 21 reps, but that seems like my limit, I'll try some of these training techniques. I don't expect to ever get 40, it's an impossible target, but I can get closer.
Great info. Can’t wait to get on this. I’ve gotten in the 8-9 range but can’t break past that despite doing a lot of sets. Appreciate it.
No problem! These are designed to be plateau breaking exercises so you’ll definitely benefit from it!

As a man in his mid forties , focus on pullups if you wanna get good at them 😊
just what i was looking for bc i was struggling to get past 7 pull ups. thank you for sharing.
Heck yeah glad to hear it!$
Thank you staff sergeant for your service. Semper fi.
Thanks this is a great video. I’ve been struggling to break the 7 rep barrier as I was too fatigued to break through.

This is great! I typically get around 6-7 in my workout regimen but doesn’t seem like I’m getting past that! Excited to try this

This is what I needed I’ve been stuck on reps thanks 🙏
I’ve plateaued at about 20. I’m going to give these a try. Thanks for the video and your service.
Great advice 👍
I am now able to do 10 reps no problem, it took me 3 years to go from zero. Sarge Eckert hints on grip strength boost helped a lot! 💪💪💪💪
Amazing!! 💪💪

Do you do these exercises on the same day as your training for pull-ups? Thanks for the advice, keep up the good work !
Hello, how often do I need to do this workout per week?

Tomorrow i will beginn with that Plan and becouse i Hang at 4 and half reps since Month
Your forearms are huge,what exercises do you practice?
Grip strength is what I train regularly because it’s so important. I have some videos on my channel specifically to train grip. Check them out!
@@MichaelEckert thank you much,keep up the good work👍👍🙏

@@MichaelEckert Thanks Michael! I will try that! 👍
Hi Michael! Thanx for this interesting video. How would you program these exercises?
How often should one do this a week?
Greetings from Germany ✌🏻
Bro please do this same for push and leg
How do i organize this all into a workout/week?
ill be doing this. I just been doing pyramids 1-5-1 and plan to add 1-6-1. Havent maxed out in months probably could do 10 except my teres minor has been kicking the crap out of me from boxing...
What to do If you're weak in the bottom part of the pull up?
Is that pull up bar for sale somewhere or is that military issue
Sir please make how to we do more than 25
Do you do muscle ups?
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
How much rest between your supersets. IT's important. 45 secs, 60 secs 75 secs? This greatly affects intensity of the work out.
No more than 120 seconds in my experience but cutting it shorter will increase intensity for sure 💪
the thumb on the botton lmao
I can easily do 17 18
How can I get to 25 above?
I can do Ten to eleven pull-ups but I can’t hold my body wait with one hand. Please help I’m. In my sixties
I already know the answer, either kip and cheat or get stronger. Lets see what he says.
20lb? I dont even own any that small. Heres the real answer, go do lat pull downs until you work your way up to doing the entire stack, then do pull ups exactly the same, probably with a 45lb plate or two or three along for the ride, because thats what you need. Thats what I did, works great.
@@deltalima6703fail lol
These are not the correct ways to do pull-ups.This is why you are average and not ripped at all.
When I turned 40, I set myself the impossible goal of doing a single set of 40 pull-ups. I made steady progress up to being able to do a single set of 21 reps, but that seems like my limit, I'll try some of these training techniques.
