In this video we show you some "unconventional" chinning and pull up variations to help you overcome your plateaues in your upper body strength training. We're already assuming that you can do double digit pull ups with strict form. We encourage that you are able too before progressing to the more advanced methods we show here using accomodating resistance methods!!

ADVANCED PULL UP METHODS FOR ATHLETES EXPLAINED

1. Accomodating pull up using "jumpstretch mini bands" Using the jump stretch bands allows you to "potentially" lock out 35-60 additional lbs at the top of the movement. Another training effect the bands have is they are pulling you down at a faster rate creating a greate stretch reflex. You may use these methods for "Max Effort" work or "Dynamic Effort" wok. Bands can be hard on the joints so we reccomend performing this movment no longer than 3 weeks in a row before switching to one of our other variations. You may purchase these bands from ELITEFTS.

2. Accomodating pull up using "5/8" chains" similar to the jump stretch bands, the chains add a similar element allowing you to lockout out more weight or lower more weight without the stress on your joints. Each chain weighs approximatley 20 lbs so depending your strength that will determine how many chains you can use. It's important that the chains "Deload" at the bottom to and "Load" at the top to produce the proper training effect. You may also use this method as "Max Effort" exercise or "Dynamic Effort" exercise. "HINT" I wanted to be a bad ass and load them up with lead chains but you will be much better off using a dip belt which is also alot more comfortable." Get 5/8" chains.

3. Accomodating pull up using "cable station" Again, another similar method using a cable station. Some of you may not be able to purchase chains and bands or your commercial gym will throw you out for such crazy maddness so I decided to show you how to implement a great exercise with a standard piece of equipment. Just like with the chains, make sure that the weight stack is "Deloaded" at the bottom and "Loaded" at the top to produce the desired training effect.

4. Accomodating pull up using a "training partner" This has to be the "easiest" or most "cost effective" of the group but you will want to assume the pull up position using the hand positioning of your choice and simply start to accend while your partner provides constant tension to the back side of your knees. He/she may also apply tension as you lower your self creating an intense "negative."

So there you have it, Advanced Pull Up Methods For Athletes.

If you want to look even better from the front, then you better start training from the back!!

Don't want to sound selfish here, but comments and questions are hugely appreciated (this allows me to put up more frequent and better content)..
