Instantly Do More Pullups (Simple Hack)

Try this easy "hack" to instantly do more pullups!

A brief, intense isometric warmup like this puts a HIGH amount of force through our body and primes it for heavy loads.

This makes our regular set seem easy.

This was taught to me as the "immediate after-effect" of isometrics, but I can't find anywhere that corroborates that.

Call it the "oogabooga effect" if you want. It does seem to really help.

The time numbers are not set in stone. I suspect they depend on the individual's conditioning. Try shorter holds and different rest times if you like and let me know how it works for you!

I'm a treeologist and I can 100% confirm that is in fact, a tree.

[vanyel_etc]

I actually did this 3 minutes before doing pull ups and my pull up was so explosive that I launched myself off of the bar and into a nearby tree

[markmawson]

This man is the Bob Ross of working out istg he should have a series called the joys of lifting or something

[Movel]

Tried your suggestiong and my tree saw a noticeable improvement on its reps range. Thank you!

[jasonalvarado]

The tree: dude you actually fixed a dislocated disk

[paul.mgnprvt]

he has the best smile i ever seen, and also coolest dude on planet earth

"Can't do full pull-ups YET" that is very inspiring

[cowhug]

This guy is legit one of the best rolemodels out there.

[krafaxxii]

Man, I like this guy. He actively discusses with his viewers who give their input/opinions on the current topic and is pretty broad minded too.

“As hard as you safely can” is actually a really good line, I’m stealing that one

[koza_soza]

Instructions unclear, i ended up breaking my neighbor’s tree.

[StockyKO]

I love this guy. He always says “hey there friend!” Makes my day

[StretchOnYT]

Definitely going to share this with my fellow Marines to use for the PFTs coming up.

"Feel free to experiment with different angles and timings"

This right here, this is the reason you are now the GOAT trainer in my eyes. So many 'certified' trainers don't consider this one thing. It took almost a decade to realize that varying timings and angles is key to real 'shock' and growth (outside of nutrition, rest and consistency of course).

Dude. You are seriously the goat. Thank you for being awesome!

this is PAP (post activation potentiation), PAP describes the phosphorylation of myosin regulatory light chains by MLC-Kinase which makes them more sensitive to contraction via Ca2+ (beneficial bc MLC-phosphatase reverses the phosphorylation between sets quite often in intense movements), you can do this on pretty much any exercise ever to squeeze out a bit more good reps, particularly useful for powerlifters 👍

[neildodd]

Thanks for the tips. I was able to do the most pull-ups of anyone in my company in boot camp thanks to your inspiration.

[slamberryp]

You're a chill guy, I like what you do man.

Due to disability I’m never going to able to do most of what he can do but I love watching these videos because of how kind and positive he is and unlike some other videos by other people I don’t even feel bad I can’t do most of what he’s teaching but I still love his videos. Btw in no way do I feel others intend making someone with a disability feel bad in any way or come across as unkind people it’s that this guy has such an awesome vibe about him if that makes sense.

[marthealine]

This guy is so cool, he's relaxing and also giving good advices, never felt that calm looking at pull ups advices
