I had a question, I am a big guy at 245lbs, I workout but I am having trouble with some body weights exercises like the pull up. it;s my biggest weakness. How can I train for pull ups, I cannot even do one full pull ups. can you help me out bro?
you can loop a powerlifting band around the bar and stick your foot inside to give you an assisted pullup similar to a gravitron machine but still mainaining your individual "groove"
endless strength gains from BW training? awesome question! I use BW to supplement how I train & w/my athletes - it's a HUGE part of what we do, but, NOT the ONLY part Then again, have I maximized my potential in bodyweight if I can not perform the below bodyweight movements: 1) pistols x 10 ea. leg, 2) 1 arm push ups x 10 ea. arm 3) 1 hand pull up x 1 rep ea. arm 4) muscle up on bar / rings x 5 in a row 5) 100 consecutive push ups 6) 10 handstand push ups 7) handstand walking
All big guys doing these drills, very impressive. 5 stars,
