i love this. it sets somewhat of a realistic view to people compared to those "i trained x for 30 days/a week"

[dimensionalshade]

This is honestly my favorte kind of lifter to watch and listen to, an honest and really humble guy just showcasing what results he got from what and his opinion

[Wittyp]

“What is functional? It means being prepared for anything at all times.”

This guy gets it!

[MonkeyBarsEveryday]

Love the overall message of this one as well. Early on, I heard Natural Hypertrophy say that the there's no such thing as too much volume for the upper back. I put that idea to the test and, while there is such a thing as too much, you can push a ton of volume through the back. In my experience, it can exceed even the legs in total tonnage because the back is endurant and recovers faster. All that aside, pulling and rowing exercises are fun as hell. Grippin' and rippin'

[WofLarsen]

No disrespect to Ivan Squat Everyday, I truly appreciate and enjoy his channel. However, your approach here is so much more sound for gains. Just training daily based on a muscle group instead of a movement makes all the sense. The back can take so much more training compared to the quads, which are generally the limiting factor in a squat. Good stuff man, looking forward to more of your videos. 💯

I apreciate how ou made a 20 min video and not once had to mention haters, comments or trying to force a point. Just good hard work and our thoughts. Thank you for your contribution to life.

[areallytallguy]

This was a great video for a variety of reasons. You can tell a lot of work went into prep went into it and you should be proud.

I've heard it said that extremely functional movements that were required for survival are sorta hyper prioritized for growth. Pullups fall into that category, along with sprinting. Two things our species needs to survive in nature. As you said, cheat code.

[shawnmcmanus]

Consistency really is king. Building that habit and coming back everyday to work the skill creates insane results

[Acewhip]

I think the pull-up (like your stone work) is a compound exercise too, so it's hard to see them as junk. There's SO much that movement touches, it's creating core strength that is hard to judge. Yes your lats will grow, but you also have grip strength, loads of core, all that internal stuff you can't see, etc. etc... I use Metolius Rock Rings which allow rotation (so your elbows don't see too much loading) and try to do something every day.

[backwoodsbrooksknives]

I think Rich Piana's feeder workouts probably match your experience with pull-ups. They are not to burn you out or trigger the muscles to get stronger, they are only to pump them full of blood so that with adequate nutrition and hydration you are feeding the muscles with what they need to recover.

[Txyurda]

Favorite YouTuber by far you deserve more attention

[brandeeno]

You deserve more recognition. Just a raw mf. I just did it, it was hard, but I still did it. Your mental strength improved as well I can only imagine. And the way you articulated your plan and experience. Low key generational cuz it’s so fucking simple and you did it. Gangster shit man. Much respect!

[tariqo]

Your videos been poppin a lot ony feed lately and thats amazing.

[tycho]

Solid advice! Really great progress, congrats! I especially liked the stone lifting. Such a badass movement.

[michaelkhan]

This is awesome man great job and fantastic results!

[thatstheguy]

Good stuff man. Motivating. The end talking about all the pull ups has me wondering where I went wrong.
During the lockdown bullshit I was just working out at parks, doing lots of pull ups/chin ups. But I ended up with golfers elbow. In fact it’s still plaguing me to this day.
I took like a year off. From almost everything. Because it just wasn’t getting better. But then when I started up again, it returned.
I just worked through the pain for the past year but stopped a few months ago from doing any pull ups at all and my last have shrunk.

Mind you I didn’t put enough effort into trying to rehab it. But it’s definitely ruined my workouts. Making most shit uncomfortable and not fun.

Anyway, I stumbled on one of your sandbag videos a few weeks ago and these have definitely motivated me to changing up my workouts. Good stuff 👍🏼

[Chaosworkout]

Niceeee that dedication is absurd awesome man
