After almost 40 years struggling to get a single pull up, going for more than 20 years to the gym, and even having a personal trainer for a couple of years, I finally was able to achieve my first full pull up using the method Greasing the Groove, as described in the video, for a week or so with a pull up bar at my home. Now after achieving that milestone is much easier for me to build up on that and increase my number of full pull ups gradually.

I’ve been trying to women who do calisthenics for a while and I’m astounded I only found you just now! Thank you for having this YT channel and inspiring folks like me into getting into calisthenics. I actually just achieved doing two pull ups in a row last week and I want to push forward to at least 3 so I can start including them as sets in my strength routines. I started doing aerial silks last month and I think it’s what really helped me get that second pull up!

You are hell of an Inspirational fitness. Your tutorials and everything you are sharing, very valuable. And you are damn strong, big massive respect for all your work

I recently began working out. I've always been super skinny but with a diet that would kill most. pizza, 1 liter of soda everyday, never drank clear and simple water ect. I've recently begun working out, stopped drinking soda and i'm feeling so so so much better about myself. My goal rn is to be able to do one pull up. I'm working my core, arms, back and arms with the goal of doing the pull up. I downloaded your "get your first pull-up" sheet you left in the description and i'll do my best. Thank you for sharing this video, this will help so many people. Well done!

I'm working on one hand pull ups as my goal and never thought/heard of negative pull ups so might try that

Doing a great job, keep going on.... got lot to learn from you.... thank u....

These are some of the best videos for female calisthenics lovers on KZfaq! Love your work! Thank you for sharing!

Gonna give it a go!! TY ❤

Thanks for sharing.

Wow you are really strong💪

Hi, when younger, used to exercise regularly and was more active. Now I'm 66 and trying to regain my youth to stay healthy. I really appreciate your information on the megative pull-ups. Didn’t think about that to get me started back to fitness! Thank you!

Grease the groove really does work. I have been trying with a negative program three days a week for two months but there was no visible progress. Maybe also because it's hard for me to be consistent this way. With grease the groove instead, by doing a jumping assisted pullup with negative every time I passed through my bedroom door, after three weeks i could do one unassisted pull up almost full range (not dead hang, but with almost straight arms). The progress is visible this way

Excellent presentation! Thanks. 😬👍

I can't even do a full push up yet, so this is something to look forward to in the future 😅

Great video❤Kim

I'll have to use some of these tips!

Thanks!

Thank you for the video. I used to be able to do 8 pull ups with one negative at the beginning for warm up when I would climb the rope without hands in a nearby park. Now, I can do 0.9, since when I pull, my chin is so close to the bar and I could only pull up when I kip which I heard isn’t the best muscle strengthening exercise. I love your advice and maybe I could get my pull up habit back.

Awesome!

OMG that back is insane!! congrats

Lightly training movements has been huge for me! I've noticed improvement in my pushups and even recently achieved pistol squats for the first time, just because I'll get up every 15 minutes throughout the day to stretch and do some basic exercises, including a couple reps of pushups (done with attention to form), and some basic two-legged deep squats. I don't push myself too hard or focus on numbers of reps, yet I'm seeing improvement just by being consistent and getting a sense of joy out of feeling the blood flow through my body and feeling my muscles work. I think a lot of exercise advice glosses over just how important it is to practice the movements with good form as consistently as possible, without focusing on pushing yourself too much or doing X number of reps. Making movement a consistent, continuous, and enjoyable part of daily life has been a game changer for me.

Goal for 2023 is to do at least one pull up. Found your channel and instantly sub!

You are my Super Star - ! - . Thank You for this Lesson .❤😊

公園で週末懸垂してますが女性で懸垂出来る方はまだ見たことありません。 なのでここまで出来る方には感服します😊 ちなみに自分の特技は懸垂逆上がりでダラダラですが連続31回です。 ５年かかりました。

I just found you. This is the best advice I’ve found on the internet! Thank you. What kind of sweatpants are you wearing in this video?

In small pots the best ointments😮❤❤❤

you inspired me and now im at 6x +30kg pullups 😊

I’m going to give it a go. Hope to follow up on my comment shortly after I get some results. 😅

JUST ONE WORD FOR U ...WOWWWWWWWWW

I don’t have a bar to do pull-ups and this looks hard too

Hallelujah

You are really lean . I can see every ripple of muscle on your back when you flex. Ive been training muscle up for years. I can still only do band muscle up. You are ridiculously strong . For your weight and height

I’m in the okangan too 🥰

0:35 i clicked subscribe!

👍😎 💪

Not to put down other female fitness KZfaqrs; I feel like you are one of the only few to be qualified on teaching this. I seen saw many “how to do pull up tutorials.” And most them can only do four…and they are not strict most of them have scapular elevation in all their reps. I’ve seen one where the person can literally only do two. The fact you can 16 pull ups and do 10 muscles ups with great form is insane

Fierce...stunningly beautiful...inspirational.

u r a very strong woman 😁😁😁

Thanks Summer! 🤗 I have struggled with one area of the pull-up and that is that mid-point. My negatives are really good now, going slow for 10 seconds. I can do 8-10 chin-ups, but I know those are different muscles. It’s just that transition spot where I feel weak, and if I can get past that couple inches, I know I can get there, then head to my high pull-ups. I don’t think strength is my problem. Am I supposed to be focussing on doing something in particular at the transition point???

i just bought a bar and i just hang there it hurts!

Hi Summer , I am new to calisthenics , as well as that I am 59 yo . As where to start is so confusing . My ultimate overall goal is full body conditioning , however , one pull up is my first goal. I don't go to gyms , been there ,done that. My main ? is which is better to do ? Active hangs or dead hangs ? do they have different effect or the same ? Love you videos , others say '' do this'' , ''do that '' , without the detailed explanation which you give .

Do you change your name to winter fun fitness in winter time?

I want to buy parallel bar, what should be the height from floor and distance between 2 bars

I have one tproblem about Summerfunfitness channel. It is that there are about 50x too little subscribers.

I have the exact same Pullup & Dip setup! You might want to check where the grip makes contact with the doorframe. Mine had eaten its way through and was starting to damage the frame. Some insulation tape where it makes contact seems to have fixed it. Have you found a way to practice chest to bar pullups on this bar? I'm not sure which grip to use so I don't bump my head. 🤔

omg im so mad i cant open cans all the time!

I still can't do pull-ups, but I still can't do jackknife pull-ups (Can I skip jackknife pull-ups?)

Hi Madam Summerfunfitness, I saw in the middle of your video a pull-up bar that can be put over a door. I am interested. Can you tell me where I can buy this pull up bar?

Incredible progression. Please do some arm wrestling

The phenomenon queen from Ellen degeneres was Marisa Inda and you do them as well as she does or equivalent you two are elite

Let's congratulate your team. Especially your husband. Keep leading females to loving sports.

I just did some. Now I cant move my hands

The lat pull down machine is basically a pull up machine. Start there. You can do normal sets of 10-12 reps, but also do some really heavy ones with 3-6 reps. Maxing out your pull strength there is where your gains will come. I'd stay away from the assisted pull up machine as it just reinforces weakness. Instead, spend that time at the bar. Just hang on it and mess around and have fun. Do scap exercises like shown here. Do negatives. Do isometric holds it you can. Get that grip strong and be comfortable being on the bar.

does using your gym's Assisted Pull up and Dip Machine get you to eventually doing a pull up on your own?

Nice place! Do you live in America? Finland?

yo

Hotttt fire that girl

You should have got a strap wrench to open the smoothie cup

okay but people keep telling me that those at home pull up bars fall down

Wow! Gorgeous back. ❤

Your current physique might just be perfect right now! What’s the next goal on your list?

Geil😂😂😂

I KNEW you were Canadian. By the way you mispronounce "out."

That back is chizeled

You make it sound like it will feel like an orgasm when you achieve your first pullup.

I feel like this wouldnt work for obese people... just too much weight

😘🏋🏻‍♀️👸❤️🌹
