In this video, you'll watch a case study showing the fix of a problem pull up. The goal of showing this process is to show you the importance of screening and uncovering the why behind movement issues. There is no "one size fits all" method to fixing problems in the pull up, we must always assess first!

This is gold... Had this issue for literally years and never even thought about trying to fix it until this video. Thanks!

Guys always do passive hangs from time to time. And once strong enough one armed. Stretch those lats and spine while strengthening grip.

This is a good video. Sometimes going to a doctor might be needed, but can be expensive for rehab. Don't give up on fixing your dyskenysis people. There are tons of videos out there to help in educating yourselves in understanding the root problems and how to correct them. I was able to, and I learned so much through my journey.

I’ve always thought it was a mental problem and something with muscle control. That’s the main thing that always stopped me from working out more. Thank you!!!

I feel like this video found me, not the other way around.
This is the exact problem im facing with my shoulder and lat mobility. Thanks for the tips.

I FKING NEEDED THIS!!! IVE BEEN NEEDING THIS VIDEO FOR AT LEAST 10 YEARS. Doctors, gym trainers, no one told me this shit! Thank you man!

I think this is exactly what I needed. I've been trying to activate my left lat during a pull-up and instead I active the bicep. Hope this helps. Thx for posting 🙏

Great advice. Also, wall slides are an awesome stretch. Also also, hanging from a bar, without doing pullups is another great exercise. Just hang as long as you can, with varied grips... Add a little motion, swinging back and forth, side to side. Just hang for 5 minutes a day and you'll notice a lot more flexibility in your shoulders.

This was/is a huge problem of mine, effects my ability to depress the scapula and to get into a tight lat position in low bar squats and dead’s, and unable to create stability in bench. As well pulling movements felt awful.
These exercises have helped me immensely, I am going to add in that pull up variation.

Great video

Daaam so thats the discomfort i am always a having while squating, over head presing and pull uping. I found that my left rear ahoulder is realy sensitive to point pressure so i am gonna work on that. I could feel the relief instantly, great tip.

I will start asap this has stopped me from building a symmetrical back and resulting in lat imbalances that left me stumped. Thank you!

I was always a 400+ bencher, then one day this exact issue occurred, and I've felt unable unable get tight in the bench, , it's severely affected strength.. I've spent the last 2 and a half years trying to fix it. This actually worked and I am so grateful! After 3 weeks already back to repping mid 300s on bench! Thank you!!!
