Banded pull-ups, green band, up from a blue band when I weighed 12 lbs less. I agree with your body weight advice!

I became addicted to this channel. I've discovered it with the CrossFit Open, and the tips for each open was really useful. Thanks so much! I'm always watching it and learning. I have a question that came to mind when I saw this video. For example, in order to do kipping pull-ups or butterflies pull-ups, it is recommendable to be able to do at least 5 strict pull-ups, right? Ok, I want to improve my muscle-ups, I practice CrossFit and in the box, the coaches have taught me MU with kiping. So is it similar to strict pull-ups, that to improve my kipping MU I should be able to perform some strict MU or not necessary?

ring rows or seated pull-ups!... but I'm so tired of those! I'm signing up for your free pullup download!

shocked myself when I can't pull 2 proper ones this year. Then came a slow but gradual return. It helped with setting intermediate goals... first was 10 in however many times it takes. then 5in1 for first set... 8in1, 10in1 and so on... then add on total in a session, eg 20 in X sets and decrease the sets over time. Up the number to 25 in X then 30 in X etc..... Next make sure each of these intermediate goals are consistent for ~5-7 days before setting new goals. Currently at 15 in 1 for first set and daily total target is >40 in 4 sets.

In a workout, I can normally string two together, but if the wod calls for more, I drop down, shake my arms for a short moment and get back up instead of toasting my arms completely. But I'm working on your tips and I can slowly feel that my numbers will increase.

I really like these helpful vids. Thanks.

Thanksss!!!

Thanx!

I can get the lower 1/2 easily.. but once I get about 3 to 4 inches from the bar, I struggle finishing the pullup

Thanks, great points identified in the video. I struggle with the last third of a pull up ( getting my face past the bar). This is the first time I heard that referenced in videos looking to improve my pull up form. In WODs I prefer scaling with jumping PUs, ring rows have become too less of a challenge and banding I still struggle with the last third of the pull.

Green Banded or jumping PUs for me during wods.

Banded pull ups... :( I have only can do ONE strict PU without assistance.

I can do 4

Banded pull-ups

That's not peace, it's hang loose.

Just for everyone's info, the reason chin ups and normal biceps curls suck as a progression into pull-ups is because the wider grip of the pull up gives more protagonism to the brachialis and brachioradialis muscles of the arms rather than the biceps, while chin ups and normal curls focus on the biceps. Doing chin ups will collaterally help your pull ups, but not optimally. Please stop providing info that will lead your followers into failure.
