Thoughts on banded weighted pullups? I like it because the weight gets heavier as you pull further up, so I find it forces me to be explosive, and it overloads the lockout, helping increase lockout strength :)
It can be useful, but I don’t program it much tbh. As top position is naturally the hardest anyway and regular pulls are easier to plan with load progressions I prefer them and tempos over banded variation
@@MichaSchulz thanks, I will have to try this paused variation out! How much strength difference have you found between these vs. your regular unpaused chinup?
How would you go about programming this? If i would do this in a strength fase, what kind of reps would you recommend and what kind of load drop can you expect when performing this harder variation? Great video as always!
Is it good idea to hold for 3 seconds in the eccentric phase? How about adding sets of static work in the upper position or at a 90 degree angle between the arm and the forearm? How many sets of pull/chinups do you do per week/day?
Hey Micha, I have an off-topic question. I notice your lower and mid trunk is quite wide (and obviously V-shaped). Do you know the reason ? Is it because you brace during squats ? Genetics ? I watch powerlifters competition from time to time and a lot of them have this super wide "greek statue" trunk. Cheers
Thank you Micha, this is amazing for new gains and different variation approach and ofc that sticking point. Cheeers!!
Very helpful. I will try this on my next chin-ups session. Thanks for sharing your knowledge
Great, thanks, I like my weighted pullups
I'm now up to 55kg pullup 1.5 reps

Do you training go to failure? or RIR 1-2? which one is better
Rarely as I train my main lifts on a frequency on 3

Just test your load drop. Can’t give you a value here as it depends on the pause you are using etc. Rep range 1-5 💪🏻
@@MichaSchulz thanks, will probably try in my next strength block, got a really abrupt sticking point in my most recent test :)
thx Micha

I don’t see huge benefits of adding tons of additional isometrics. 🤙🏻

Just did these yesterday, also while bulking so a little tougher cause the latest increase in body weight, which is a given, but awesome video!
Can i do this with ribgs too?
Doing this like you do i get elbow pain and with rings not.
Yes
🙏🏼
I do the pause when coming down.
I'm at 60kg for 1 rep weighted chin ups. But that is the difficult bit. Sticking point
Very strong!
