Average climber vs 5min pullup challenge (+ how to train for your first pullup!)
In this video, I'm going to be doing the 5-minute pullup challenge, in which you simply try to do as many pullups as possible.
I will let the video of the pullups play uncut with a timer, but to keep things a bit interesting I will be talking about how you can train to do your first pullup, if you haven't managed to do one yet.
Try to guess how many pullups I'll be able to do before watching the video, and share your own numbers as well!
Feel free to use the chapters to jump to the challenge itself after the short intro, or to the end to see the final number of pullups I got.

How to train for the one-arm pullup (as a climber)
Переглядів 2,7 тис.День тому
In this short video, I give some exercise progressions as well as related training guidelines to achieve your first one-arm pullup. Even though one of the premises is that you can already do regular, unassisted pull-ups, if you can't do those yet, you can adapt what is shown here to achieve those too! I'm also assuming that you have access to weights, a weight belt, and a pulley system, but mos...

    You should definitely do a full oap when making a tutorial video. Even in some of your progressive exercises, you stop at about 3/4 of the way up, which is not ideal for demonstration. The last part that you're leaving out is definitely the hardest and holding the lock-off at the top should be the end position. Even in your isolated lock-offs you don't hold the true top position, but about the middle position. I recommend you try ring-one-arm-chin-ups to test if you can really pull yourself up with one arm, because that way it's easier to "feel" when you reach the final lock-off position. You still look really strong on the bottom half of the oap, so with a bit of training on the top half you should get really good at oaps rather quickly. For practicing the top part, I recommend either holding the (true) top position, or using a resistance band to do 3-5 full reps. A resistance band is good for that as it helps you less at the top than the bottom, because the band contracts as you pull up.

      Thanks for taking the time to write such detailed feedback. It's true that in my little "gimmick" intro I didn't go all the way up and didn't really hold it, because I got fried from doing multiple takes of it haha It's strange, but actually the bottom part of the oap is the hardest for me. For the left arm for example, that's where I get stuck, but if I start a little engaged, then the rest is no problem. But I think it varies for different people. But your point about the band helping with training the top position is definitely valid, it certainly provides less help up high

    judging by your first I'd recommend lowering the weight and doing your 3 rep sets with a pause at the bottom for your deadlift. just an opinion tho 👍
