How to do a pull up workout- beginners tutorial for pullups

[C00lorWhat]

You're really awesome! thanks for your guide. I am able to do 5 pull ups now.

[kietdaoakaicy]

DON'T LISTEN TO HATERS. That's what he meant

[TeenageTrainer]

this is a great vid, if you want further explanation check out my pull up tutorial vid!

[drjdt26]

I can only do 1 pullup so far right now. how can how I reach the point of 21 muscle ups, that is my goal. better to aim high, and at least reach close to it one day. I want to do this clean. I want to makeup for many yrs of neglecting my body, and want to be fit. I appreciate your beginner's video. any thanks would help.

[voltaire812]

even though i'm sure this guy will outlive me by decades and will always be a hell of a lot fitter than me i think he may need to work on his definition of fun, still props to him

[Carljoakimmm]

@voltaire812 why should he "work on his definition of fun" when he has fun in a healthy way instead of harmful?

[voltaire812]

@Carljoakimmm it was not a very good joke i know but i wasn't recommeding harmful activities, you didn't need to leap there, just saying its funny for anyone to describe pull ups as fun. Maybe read a book instead or do both a the same time now there something this guy should do. I'll repeat again though i have a great deal of respect for this guy and in no way am i trying to belittle him or other fitness gurus in general that probably would be harmful

[awxtreme]

I'm suprised your not ripped

[jimaldo64]

good tip for beginners (and experts!) DON'T wrap your thumb round the bar, keep thumbs on the same side as your fingers. wrapping your thumb around uses 3 or 4 more muscles in your forearm and tires you out quicker ;-)

[wahlaonousernameone]

im a chick and the first pull-up i ever did was the commando pull-up, any explanations?

[dizyootum]

@wahlaonousernameone their easier

[wahlaonousernameone]

Thank you so much bro!

[Olcsi66]

You helped me a lot dude, thank you!!

[ville477]

when he said how much the flavor of orange juice, there was over I was going to pick up the juice and he said, sufficient juice to return to the pull ups, then I sat back on a chair lol

[EPICLYFATALERROR]

you're the best I've found on beginners methods, thanks.

[tejasnisar]

You are very good and kind!!!!!!!!

[auq21]

So what do u do when your hands hurt trying to grip the bar, i have gloves but they suck and i can't hold on because it hurts the inside of my hands.

[kwstaras]

@auq21 Just hang from it without pullin up.. The more time u spend hangin from the bar the harder the inside of ur hand will get.. Dun ask questions when u can find ur own answer... All you gotta do is practise..

[JackRaisin001]

dude i saw you perform before in venice that shit was sick mad strength

Can you put up a video to show basic workouts one can do at home to get in shape for those that don't have access to this equipment.

[TheMikaylaRivera]

i wish that was fun 4 me 2

[klaryon]

Hey! My name is Greg, and I would like to ask something! I have minor scoliosis.Does that prevent me from doing a succesfull pull-up work-out? Please let me know if you have some time!

[ellokhai]

@klaryon I don't think he gonna this comment man. This video was uploaded last year. lol

[ThExJ0k3R]

@klaryon If its only minor scoliosis I doubt it would stop you from doing pull ups, they aren't a move which puts massive strain on your spine, probably best to ask a doctor or someone who knows what they are talking about first though.

[horacrux]

great vid,but,im curious,what does he keep looking at ,to his left?

[drewmuscle95]

@horacrux security building

[musicduct]

[bladdan]

@onlineiseasy or drive by shooters?

[UniversalTruths]

@bladdan He said at the start that he was worried some one might kick him out before he can finish the video because of his bright lights.

[dannielmeza]

I have my own routine. But i'm still not able to do a single pull-up yet. So, how often should I do this, including my routine??

[MichaelHTillman]

Cilantro WOULD make crazy juice.

[jimE3times]

I love strength project... real motivating 

[EmanuilPenev]

DUde, great video

[ameerah7]

Wow, I've never been able to do a pull-up. I'm encouraged and I look forward to making my way to the park until I can get my pull-up bar. I'm excited!! Thank you for sharing!!

[MadaSkills1]

He seems like such a genuinely nice person.

[motodragon89]

[drumsjm787]

does it matter if the bar isnt so high..its higher than me obviously but still not as high as yours?

[CVaNko1]

[Ber76]

[crutchdaddi]

"I like to get as high as I can... So that's how I have fun."

Cosign

[artakisthebest]

@crutchdaddi whats cosign?

[leafblowinSK8]

What when your able to do about 8 pull-ups, how do you Increase, like what kinda reps, and sets, etc. HOW DO I INCREASE NOW?

Help would be greatly appreciated (from anyone who is able to do at least 20 pull ups :P)

[sk8forlifebitch]

@leafblowinSK8 turn that 8 pulls ups into 1-2 pull ups when you go up if your doing front pull ups..your going to want to try to go to both corners of your pull ups, if thta makes any sence look up the barbarians and you can see what im talking about you want to lower the amount of reps and get the strength and then revert to reps and then back to form rep form rep form rep form ..switch it every week 1/2 or so

[ThePropheticfire]

is there any beginning weight bar exercises to prepare one for a pullup,,im a woman i still cant do even one

[jason7456]

@ThePropheticfire For a women or beginners, start of with a reverse grip pull up and do between 1 set of 5-20 reps within 2-3 sets. And if possible try to do as many sets as you can but not overdone. And after you're able to do the reverse grip pull ups, try doing the lower pull up bar(Note: Not too high or not too low) recommend- play ground so called 'monkey bar' before doing the main pull up. Remember this, follow this video guide and be patient with your training. Good luck in doing it!

[safwanrofi]

Hey..

Thanks for the video tutorial.. And it help me today and my hand is burning after i'm done stage one and two... I will try the third and forth stage and i will do full pull ups..

Thanks.

[bgboogie]

[CrazyNazirite]

[alativalmis]

Hi, like the video, but what do you think is the best way to increase the nr of pullups... right now I can do 7 slow complete pullups

[danidj4]

So where can I purchase that orange juice?

[jevdawg]

@strengthproject I don't have access to bars..but I do my pull ups on a tree branch..do u need a bar or the tree is fine?

[jaffacec]

im such a beast i go to the bar AT the club........ to order drinks :)

[fifthgear93]

OMG, I just refreshed the video, and the youtube bar just changed to some kind of new black design.

[FRJae]

Hey I was wondering do you guys in strength project ever lift weights? Because I have a friend that fights like he does muay thai and grapple and he is alot bigger than I am. As in like his arms, legs, and chest, but I lifted weights and I'm not big as him. I don't understand please respond!

[caiocrz]

starting it from today. Thanks man!

[Misterteydy]

I realised that i dont know where to exert force and strength, and i cant create the pulling force, any idea how to help me?

[kissanainen6969]

YOU ARE A GOODMAN ! PEACE

[lewisdude24]

What is a list of exercises that will help with pullups????????

[NaturesCycles]

Cool video. I wish we had bars like that in our local parks and stuff.

[slivic83]

you went off subject a few times i liked your first vids because you didnt talk!!!!

try again man i thought you were good most of the time through tje video peace...

[nikita98001]

The reason i cant do a Pull up is cuz only like one hand goes up and the other one is still Down there help ME please

[ps3alexpr]

arash, what do you think of the perfect pull up bar, the one that you can install in your door frame??

[alexcampo305]

@ps3alexpr i personally have one and i went from a person who couldnt do a pull up to doing 15... put the bar in the room u use the most and just bang out as much u can do.. trust me it is going to be money well spent

[ps3alexpr]

@alexcampo305 i have it, but is very difficult to me to do one, I do like 20 to 25 abs with the strap, also I can do the diagonals one, ( you put your foot on the door frame and can do a diagonal pull up, off does, I do like 15, rest for 15 sec and do 15 more, but the vertical pull ups!!! I just can't, I'm 6' tall and weight 195 I'm 29, I just want to get a little bit strength and gain a little bit of muscle!! I guest I have the weakest arms in the world, any suggestions, advise?

[jeffOneWorld]

very good beginner pull up video, and good advice too.

[cedosrbija]

ok man just do that pull ups and make intro shorter... please

[hunghungfish]

i am very curious arash, i know you are quite the athlete, but i wanted to know if you consider yourself to be both academically and physically proficient?

[pullupfan]

when i started my pull up workout , I could do only one. i was so frustrated and made a crazy plan: to complete 20 reps a day. I did not care movement quality and the time it cost, just stick to quantity. I still remember that the first 20 reps cost me 2.5 hours. I trained every other day, and 14 days later I could do 7 consecutive pull up.....lucky i was not injured

[jrodz02]

Thanks 4 ur videos. How often do I do the stages?

[Zenmamau2b]

dont give up! dont give up! dont give up!!

keep it simple! nicely done...very encouraging!

def keep u posted w my progress!

[Zenmamau2b]

dont give up! dont give up! dont give up!!

keep it simple! nicely done...very encouraging!

[andy1985jones]

I grew up in gymnastics so don't remember so much now how I got into pullups. We started with exercising just hanging on the high bar for grip strength. Over the years the strength came of course. Lots of pullups and muscle ups came in time. The idea is to force the lats to do much of the initial work before transitioning to other muscle groups. 

[smashingpoop]

i got my vetgetable juice right here so i'm pretty hyped up hahaha

i really love your motivation man i should be more like that

[GimmeXtra]

what is it called when bars are parallel or palms are facing each other, i see them at the park where it's like two handles. is it considered a pull up or chin up if you use those?

[lilpainify]

@GimmeXtra i t think those r called dip bar handles..

[cannivus]

im over weight but im in stage 3 so i once im stage 5 ill post a vid tnx man cause of u im realley droping weight and ggetting healthy againt\

[asianboy4lyfe]

[Etube1972]

[GoHiper]

As funny as it sounds .."dont give up" is most important part :) btw friend, can you talk about neutral grip ? ...im your old subscriber, very happy that you have new place for your project... love your videos! respect!

[dreanab]

Thank you so much for this! I will sure to give it a shot and NOT give up! Thanks again, god bless!

[alexdobras]

your good man!!!

[taeyeonie9]

Hi strength project. I can do 5 of these standard pullups. but about the gripping part where u hang on the bar as long as you can, i realised my left hand grip is alot weaker than my right hand. That's probably why i cant even do the monkey bar. What should i do?

[alexxweldon]

the word for contracting a muscle and not moving in a range of motion is isometric or iso. thats the word you were looking for. Cool video

[andylim91]

I like the part where he says don't give up :D

[nething94]

thnx



[thedarKnight2008]

I am going to try this today. My grip is terrible, it really hurts after 8 seconds.

[ironwillgachi]

Great Video dude..This is exactly what I was looking for : )

[xNinjaKingx]

PLZ do a NORMAL push up video lmfao~ as dumb as that sounds... i dont feel safe doin a normal push up... so many different ways X_X

[7Karpos]

3 people probably don't have milk in their arms so the can't lift themselves

[pigmie123]

"when every body else is at the club...I'm at the bar....the pull up bar." 100% bad ass! you have awesome videos keep it up!

[lcpliaj]

hello... i can do 8 pull ups as of no, but i was wondering how long will it take me to get to 20? i mean from ur experience..

[avgrad]

i need to be able to do one pull up in a month. im committing my body to your steps. leeeets see what happens. (im a female)

[chungzheng]

@avgrad Tell me your result ! haha :D ! Dont give up !

[Fallndrkness]

Ok my hands sweat really bad so it makes pullups difficult cuz my hands will like slide when im trying to do them. Any suggestions?

[lcpliaj]

@Fallndrkness well u can either get flour and put it on ur hands, that helps ur hands from sweating or u can buy some workout gloves, there real cheap @ wal mart or any sports store...

[vulcans2flames]

damn i was eating a s'more while watching this...fat ass meter at a 10

:(

[punktheman]

The pull up bar is the place you like to hang... nice

[A7XNCK]

[MrEmoji]

lol u r crazy but u are awesome. hands down best tutorial i have ever seen. great job mate.

[agnosticforce]

Great video. Appreciate the tips.

[soulofone]

The best quote of any workout video ever......."I got my vegetable juice right here so I am pretty hyped up."

[najinajina]

How long should i Hold myself above the pull up bar for before moving on?

[faheemthedream2007]

@najinajina from other vidz..it seems like for a few seconds..like 3-4 sec's

[asdfkie]

Today I did my first pull-up. And my second. And my third.

I first saw this video about a month ago, at which point I could only do pull-ups by jumping.

I can't say I followed this training plan exactly, because the truth is, I didn't. I mixed it up, and slacked off a little, and in recent weeks, I've hardly had time to train. But this video was what got me started, and without it I'm pretty sure I'd still be stuck.

Thank you. You made my day. :D

[joe4439]

@asdfkie after i read this i pressed the subscribe button on top of this video :')

[novoic]

-.-

[mrfrosty8172]

do not have your thumbs wrapped around the bar!

have them going over the top with the rest of the fingers

[rotaficionado]

Thanks for the video, will definitely try this one out soon

[TweakSaan]

vegetable juice helps? do you make it or buy it?

[H3LLK3RN]

hey ppl, Im kinda skinny so I was thinking about starting to do some running by the morning but I dont know how to start. What I must ear or drink before running, or that I cant drink or eat before doing it...im kinda in the dark, I would apreciate some advice! Thanks in advance

[maxuris]

Hey mate . Your videos are awesome . I started about two months ago when i was at the point i couldn't do a pull up with the beginners tutorial (with no speech :P) and now after every day exercise i can do 5 (a lil bit of cheating tho xD) . I'll be waiting for more of your videos dude . Keep them coming :D

[Kultmannen]

I like to jump up and hold it så my head is over the bar, try to hold it for as long as i can and contoinue to hold against all the way down while I slowly is forced back to the ground again.

So far I can hold myself over the bar for 5 seconds, and the maybe postbone myself getting on the ground again for like 10 seconds. But i started training this only 4 days agoo and have had massive improvements alreay. I hope I will be able to do one real pullup soon!:)

[Kultmannen]

@Kultmannen I weigh 100 kilos so its not too bad I feel

[Gooneryz]

@strengthproject

good tutorial dude i did exactly this kind of things when i couldn't do a pull up =] now i can do up to 5 in a set.Show us some more pull up workouts showing how to increase the number.

[strengthproject]

@Gooneryz

Def! Thanks for watching. The next video will be on increasing your numbers.

[usmcdemandel]

@strengthproject hey man i was wondering if u have any tips so i could increase from 0 pull ups to 3 by April 1st u see i am in the marines delayed entry program but i suffered an injury right before i went to boot camp but they gave me till april and when i tried to do pull ups i couldnt even do 1 so im tripping out because if i cant do atleast 3 i cant ship so any help i would greatly appreciate it

[bboyStuntZ]

@strengthproject Sup Arash. You know more about this than I do, but I was wondering if it's a good idea to do pull ups everyday?  Don't the muscles need a day of rest for this exercise depending on soreness?

[TheBoyNextDoor7002]

@bboyStuntZ Yes you should rest in between days, your muscles need to repair themselves. 

[angelckk1]

@strengthproject how long have u been doing??

[sinistercharlie]

@strengthproject what foods do you recommend to slim down and get more energy? your bad ass!

[Xatzhkwstas]
