Trust me, this works. When I was in the delayed entry program as a poolee I was terrible at pull-ups. I wasn't weak but simply lacked the reps needed to do more than enough pull-ups. I went from straining to do 6 or 7 pull-ups, to doing at least 15 with ease within a month. I ultimately couldn't join because of an underlying heart condition. Still love pull-ups though.
I’m in your situation strength-wise 7-10 pull ups. Goal is 20. How long did you take to notice gains and how often did train this circuit per week? I’m 58 and workout about 4-5 times a week weights and walking.
Thanks, Marine! 4:38 "Enjoy the pain." When I was in, the saying was, "Embrace the suck," meaning whatever discomfort you're experiencing, learn to like it, then love it and wish it could suck more. Discomfort makes us learn and grow, whereas apathy, comfort and complacency lead to stagnation and weakness. Semper Fi
This video is invaluable. I started doing calisthenics due to the lockdown, and I have never felt fitter (granted, I have been training for a marathon too but I havent lost muscle at all)
just found your channel last night and i gotta say im insired to increase my pull up game. i started working out in feb and so far ive gone from 211 lbs and im now down to 145. in june i bought a pull up bar and was only able to do 2 pull ups. im able to do 30 now but your vids look so crazy im gonna try to replicate it one day.

Thank you I want to join the polish military but now I can’t do even one pull up when as a kid I used to be able to do it for ever hopefully this helps the other part that I struggle in is running I think I’m gonna try start running a mile 3 to 4 times a week and with time uping the distance
So I did 3 sets yesterday and managed to do only 4-3-2 pull ups after those 2 warm up exercises.When I woke up today I could feel my biceps pretty good and little bit of upper back too.I did the same today, but didn't manage to do as many reps and pull ups as yesterday, so tommorow I'm gonna rest, eat some protein and continue on monday. My problem might be weak left arm (had shoulder surgery 2 years ago), but that's not an excuse in any way.
Where you stationed and what’s your mos? Your SgtMaj must love having you there😂 freakin motivator bro💯💯🇺🇸 Sgt in Motor T here. Loving the tips on how to increase my reps!! Semper!
Good job! Make sure you are good to go on situps and your 3.5 mile run....the rest is just mental strength. Boot camp once you get through is no so bad, but going through it is hell. School of infantry is fun...25 mile hike and land nav courses! Semper Fidelis!
You know who needs to see this? Professional hockey players! I saw that in the rookie combine the player with the most pull ups only did 14! It's wild to me that soon to be professional athletes can't do anymore pull ups than that!
Hi. How many sets should we perform? How long should we rest after each set? In minute 3:58 you said that you recommend high reps, you also said that you do "20-20-20"... Does this mean you do 20 pull ups after doing the bicep curls and the lat pulls? if so, I'm guessing that this is an advanced work out... I don't think that many intermediate trainees can do more than 12 consecutive pull ups, especially if they first did bicep curls and lat pulls. Thank you.
Thank you, sounds good. What I do is a set of fingertip pushups of around 10-15 reps and then I'll get an extra pull up or chin up sometimes two extra.

Any advice on rehabbing rotator cuff injuries so I can get back into doing pull ups? Push ups feel fine, it’s just pull ups that hurt, even after about 6-8 reps. Getting frustrated that I can’t train properly. Great videos, sir, have just discovered your channel and am getting motivated. You’re an absolute legend.
Thanks a lot for the tip. I just did it and i was flying over the bars. First i did 10-12 reps bicep 10kg each. Then rows 50kg totaal en then 2 pull up it was so hard. Between a set i had 60 second rest and i did 4 sets. Before i went to home i did 4 sets pull ups about 12 reps each. I was flying thx a lot. So in the Netherlands people know you to.

Sergeant nice training videos there! Do you think higher pull-ups are important?! There are people suggesting pulling up above chin level...is not enough, not full, not complete. Since you do clean muscle-ups what's your pull-up thought on this...?
the bird was like "hi youtube! mama i'm on the computer!" i'll def give this a try next time. i can barely get 2 pull ups, 3 on a really good day if my grip doesnt fail me first. would love to hit 5
I reckon weighted under control negative pullups are a better way to go. Just put them dumbbells in to a backpack, put the backpack on and do pull ups, or do under controll slow negative pullups ny using something like a chair to get on the up position on to the bar then slowly do the negative pull ups.
Hey I tried doing the dumbells but when I couldnt do the pull ups. I did manage to hang there for a moment. How long before I start showing improvement and how often do you this exercise 3 to 4 times a week? Thank you!
Hi Michael, so I recently managed to f**k up my left shoulder doing bench press .. over did it I guess. Usually can manage about 5-8 pull-ups (proper ones) but as I my shoulder is a bit screwed right now do you have any suggestions for what I can do to recover it quicker and get back to working out. I’ve tried stretching it gently but all I’m doing is feeling it still hurting even more. I’m 41 and not a Marine (I wish I were but being a British Canadian and an artist by trade I’m not exactly Marine material. But I have a lot of USMC fans of my work so I have a lot of respect for you guys, and would appreciate any ideas you might have for me to sort out my shoulder. I’m fairly fit but haven’t been able to train for weeks now due to my shoulder.
Gemeingefährlicher Müller I get it, I’ve said the same thing when I was younger. But there’s a little more to it than that. I know a lot of guys that have been doing pull-ups for many years and they still suck. From my experience it’s just as important to train smart as well as hard. They’re not good at the smart part, running is the same way as are many other skills.
I'm up to 10 reps now but it's taken me a long time to get there and I'm struggling to improve , so I'm going to give this a go. I've felt like there's something missing in my core strength and I like the principle of this technique. I'll do it every second week and hopefully if I remember will update my progress in a month or two. I'm 52 by the way. Edit: dated Sunday 28 March 2021.
Interesting idea. Maybe because of my weak english i don't understand a few things. Could you tell me how many times in week I should do this workout and for example if my pull up max is 10, how many reps in set I should do?
This is probably for some one who can already for 3-5 pull-ups, if you can't do one start with negatives and the isometric holds and over time you should be able to do one

Work on overgrip pull-ups first, this video works most of the upper body muscles required to do either under or overgrip pull-ups. However, once you master; Dead hang Overgrip Pull Up Negative pull up Regular Push ups (proper form) Getting 15 will be a piece of cake. I would recommend you to work mostly on overgrip pull-ups and push-ups, with enough time, proper training, a good diet, and discipline your body will do the rest. The easier overgrip pull-ups are for you, the more undergrip pulls-ups you will get.
Hi sir Love your videos Can i do this every alternate/every day? Or just once a week. The problem is i can only do 3 pull ups for now & that's max. What do you recommend?
Hi Michael! First of all thanks for sharing all this stuff! Now..

You see the swaying he does when he’s curling ? We all do it. If you post your back up against something for instance the pull-up bar post, that stabilization will ensure your getting nice clean reps every time. When you sway your form tends get sloppier as you gone on. Then once you knock out the curls you can easily transition into the bent over rows no problem.
Hey everyone!! I recommend you do 3-4 sets of this circuit with 60-120seconds of rest between sets!! I hope you like the video!! 💪🔥
I wanna do that for 1 month and i want to see what different i have.
Thanks Sergeant

Love it bro
Good knowledge u dropped
u recently made a video covering how to do muscle up! I have a question; do i have to master pull ups first in order to do a muscle up??
Most people recommend being able to do 10-15 pull ups in a row before attempting muscle ups.
Very good philosophy for compound lifts in general I think, I may try incorporating this train of though in other lifts as well🤔
I reckon weighted under control negative pullups are a better way to go.
Just put them dumbbells in to a backpack, put the backpack on and do pull ups, or do under controll slow negative pullups ny using something like a chair to get on the up position on to the bar then slowly do the negative pull ups.
If you can’t do pull ups try fatiguing muscle then do banded pull ups or negative pull ups
Love it.

Using isolated exercises additionally will be more effective.
Thats it....
Once you reach a plateau, you gotta start mixing in other stuff.
Or do resisted bodyweight rows. Foundational exercises can get you the strength you need.
Is this equally effective with a barbell? I don't have 2 dumbells. Also could this work if you can only manage 1 pull-up.

it can take a while i am mid 30's and it took a while to get to 10 just keep going and eventually 15-20 will be the norm.
Interesting idea. Maybe because of my weak english i don't understand a few things. Could you tell me how many times in week I should do this workout and for example if my pull up max is 10, how many reps in set I should do?
Im confused. If we cant do a pull up the cure to that is 20x curls, 20x whatever you call the back workout and 20x pullups?
This is probably for some one who can already for 3-5 pull-ups, if you can't do one start with negatives and the isometric holds and over time you should be able to do one
What if I can only do 1-2 pull ups after the bicep curls and rows? Should I just do negative pull ups instead?
Did anything worked for you? I can only do 1 this is why I'm asking

Great tips 👍 going to try this. What's your views on pyramid training?
Does it work for chin up also? I can do only 5 chin up with proper form.. I need to make it 15.
Work on overgrip pull-ups first, this video works most of the upper body muscles required to do either under or overgrip pull-ups.
However, once you master;
Dead hang
Overgrip Pull Up
Negative pull up
Regular Push ups (proper form)
Getting 15 will be a piece of cake.
I would recommend you to work mostly on overgrip pull-ups and push-ups, with enough time, proper training, a good diet, and discipline your body will do the rest.
The easier overgrip pull-ups are for you, the more undergrip pulls-ups you will get.

You see the swaying he does when he’s curling ? We all do it. If you post your back up against something for instance the pull-up bar post, that stabilization will ensure your getting nice clean reps every time. When you sway your form tends get sloppier as you gone on. Then once you knock out the curls you can easily transition into the bent over rows no problem.
