How To Make PULL UPS HARDER 💪(4 Exercises)

Published: Fri, 05/15/20

Yesterday I gave you 4 progressions for the push ups.

Today let me give you 4 progressions for pull ups.

If you aren't doing pull ups in your current workout - find a way to make them happen or else you are leaving gains on the table.

Find a table to do rows with
Buy a pull up bar on amazon
Hang a towel on a tree branch
Etc

Get creative & make it happen.

Level 1: Inverted Rows x 15

Level 2: Regular Pull Ups x 10-15

Level 3: Archer Pull Ups x 10-15

Level 4: 1 Arm Assisted Pull Ups x 5 (Each Arm)

If you can do the amount of reps on level 1 - move onto level 2 until you hit the reps goal and keep advancing.

Here is a clip of me demonstrating the archer pull ups at home:

Pay attention to the tempo I am using. You want to do all pull ups in a slow and controlled fashion in order to target muscle building.

If you just do them really quick you are only building endurance.

If you have been doing home workouts since this quarantine started you might be able to do 10+ reps by now

So now you have a new progression to work towards so you can keep stimulating your muscles so they have no choice but to grow!

Now let's go do some pull ups...
