    What I learned: 1.

The inherent disadvantage of the assisted pull up machine, a favorite of mine with beginner clients. That's Jeremy's knowledge quality in his videos.

    For the 3 or something people seeing this, do not give up man, I have been working for an year on doing just one pull up and today I finally did my first 10 pull ups.
    I started out with barely being able to do 5 push ups and made my way up to doing the 100 push ups a day back in summer of 2020. I did try doing pull ups.
    After about 5 months I went out with a friend that was able to do 5-10 pull ups and when I tried i couldn't even come close to doing 1 rep.
    I began working hard and I really wanted to be as good as that friend. 3 months before my first pull up I wanted to prove to my dad that I'm serious and I can achive a goal.
    I bought a resistance band (35kg) and i could barely do 3 reps with it.
    After a couple of week of doing pull ups with the resistance band I just grabbed a bar and did a pull up with no problem.
    But I wasn't able to do more than one.
    I continued to work and after a couple more weeks of doing abs work out, push ups and pull ups (with resistance band) I was able to do 2 pull ups (doing them for normal reps, even tho my record was 5 and I couldn't do more than it.)
    After doing 2 reps of 10 sets every day for like 3-4 days I was able to do 3 reps of 10 sets and after 4-5 days ofthat I'm able to do 5 reps of 10 sets.
    Today I finally achived my goal of 10 pull ups (the other goal is a muscle up, but that would be a lot harder)
    So don't give up. Trust me. You got this.

  • @TheLostpapers

    Just wanted to thank you for your wise advice on pull-ups. I was struggling to to 3 series of five pull-ups (not even full but getting down to 3/4), never being able to go above that after many months.
    By following your program, I unlocked my pull-ups. The scapular training really made the difference.
    After 12 sessions, I am able now to do 3 series of 10 pull ups (3/4 descent), and I've validated 3 series of 7 pull ups (full movement). I'm planning to get to 3 x 10 (full move) in about 2 or 3 weeks.
    So, this is definitively a video to watch and a method to apply.
