You'd have to pay quite a bit of money going to your physio once for one issue, nevermind having a free library readily available with so much quality(and well sourced) information around such a diverse set of subjects.

    Would love a one arm pull up video. I'd be really interested to know if it's actually an effective way of training for climbing or of they're more of a party trick. I found one arm pulldowns on a cable machine improved my climbing much more than one armers, presumably as it was easier to match the plane of motion of that of climbing.

    I recently started strength training after 6 years of only climbing and immediatly got a golfers elbow. I am doing max pull ups and max hangs. At first I only felt the pain when doing the pull ups, now (after a month) I also feel it when climbing and even when straightening/stretching my arm. Thats why I'm conviced the injury was caused by the pull ups. I did an assesment before starting training and got an 2 RPM of +30 kg (150%) as result. So my following training was 6 sets, 3 reps with +20kg.
    In a Lattice video a physio said, that when the golfers elbow is caused by pull ups, its often because of the end of motion, but I don't know what that means practically for my training. Im wondering what I did wrong and if I should stop the pull ups completely, dont do the full range of motion (which i thought is important), reduce the intensity (I'd say I'm at 7/10 of effort) or just push through. And/Or should I train special muscles to not load that elbow too much to compensate weaknesses? Any advice?

    • @HoopersBeta
      @HoopersBeta  2 роки тому +2

      Right? Definitely has some practical use!
      There's a chance you're rolling your shoulders forward / scaps into an anterior tilt in order to use the pecs more to compensate for some lower trap / mid back weakness. I'd re-investigate your form and perhaps record yourself. That's not to say there is no pec involvement in the wide grip, it's just to mention it may be a compensation.

    Hi, thanks again for a very informative video. One thing I often see overlooked and wonder whether there are any differences is the female vs male body. To me as a lay person, it seems that all the examples are illustrated on male body but as far as I know there are differences in terms of upper body muscles etc. So perhaps it would be informative to address those and see what can be done about them ? Because it’s a nice advice for me to just start with the simple pull ups before moving on, but as far as I know that’s much harder for example for my gf or other girls.

    • @fufumccuddlypoops5502
      @fufumccuddlypoops5502 2 роки тому

      Make and female muscles are the same in terms of function, insertion points and practical training. The difference is males usually naturally have more muscle mass on their upper body
      Edit: so the reason it’s harder for your gf is she probably starting with lower muscle so she needs easier progressions

    Great job! There is always controversy surrounding pull ups behind the neck. It looks like the neck is in a bad position. But most people look up when doing a front pull up. And that doesn't seem to bother anyone. Is it bad to do pull-ups behind your head from an anatomy standpoint?

    • @HoopersBeta
      @HoopersBeta  2 роки тому

      Correct. "looking up" or spinal extension is better in the ending position whereas the pull ups behind the neck, force your neck forward into flexion, which may increase flexion of the thoracic spine as well which changes your ability to engage the scapula in meaningful ways that would be beneficial to climbing strength (and general health of the shoulder).

    Varying your pull up grips makes a lot of sense, even reverse grip. No two climbs are alike and you may need strength with you hand And body at every possible angle. If every route was just a big campus board then maybe there would be no need for grip variation but thankfully that’s not the case. Plus, if you struggle with pull-ups neutral grip or reverse grip may be a good way to work up to standard grip.

    • @HoopersBeta
      @HoopersBeta  2 роки тому

      Yeah! There's actually a study about pull ups on ledges vs a bar and how it changes activation. Maybe we should do a short on that :)
      The stable vs unstable causes a shift in attention from strength to stability. More muscles have to act to stabilize the shoulder with a suspension system vs a stable bar, but that also means less force can typically be used which means less strength training emphasis. So depends on goals :)

    This mans said "to avoid going straight up into the bar and concussing ourselves..." Hooper's got some crazy velocity on those pullups!

    I’ve always been fit and athletic and throughout middle school, high school, US Army and my competition fighting days and I was always stronger with BTN pull-ups than the traditional pull-ups. I also feel lest wrist strain and more comfortable doing BTN pull-ups.
    I am 56 now and still fit at 5’ 8” and 160 lbs. I still am much stronger with BTN pull-ups. Honestly, I dread the thought of doing traditional pull-ups. I literally need to force myself to do traditional pull-ups in at least one of my workout sessions lol.
    Any trainers know why I am stronger doing BTNs rather than traditional pull-ups? Same with BTN barbell presses. I feel stronger doing those than traditional front barbell press.

    Very clear, thanks! What about off set pull ups? I noticed I'm bad at keeping tension with my bottom arm on big deadpoint moves so I started doing them... But they're so hard I can barely get 2 reps in and my shoulders hurt like hell in the following days :p

    • @HoopersBeta
      @HoopersBeta  2 роки тому

      Well since that's more of a dynamic movement it will have components of normal (pulling up), narrow (as you pull towards one side), and wide (as you pull towards that other side you go super wide on the other arm).

    What about arched back versus straight back ? And what about thumb over bar? What about grip? Shall it be only fingers?

    • @HoopersBeta
      @HoopersBeta  2 роки тому

      Arched vs straight depends on if you're referring to the lumbar spine or thoracic. You'll want some thoracic extension but you actually want to avoid excess extension in the lumbar spine because that can reduce some activity of your core

    Interesting video.
    For those of us who were used to a get it done form and want to clean it up, would you recommend thinking about firing the muscles in sequence for each relevant pullups or r is that overthinking it?

    • @HoopersBeta
      @HoopersBeta  Рік тому

      I’d say that’s overthinking it unless you really want to focus on a specific muscle engagement. In my opinion it’s usually better to use a cue to help you accomplish the form you’re looking for without having to overthink things. For example, thinking “try to touch my chest to the bar” is useful if you’re trying to avoid doing the more rounded-shoulder / hollow-body style of pullup.

    Well…we both win. Good reinforcements and as always trying pull up variations that best suit you? I suck at them, but can campus fairly well. All I do is wide. Wonder if push/pull has any relation? Meaning all I do wide push up, too. I’m stronger weighted chin-ups, too-weird. Good fun on a Monday. 🙏

  • @polaristhebestdog

    Great video! But I'm surprised that you spent so little time on doing pullups on rings, and only with neutral grip. Since rings allow you the freedom to move your hands into different positions, is there any additional benefit to doing ring pullups with your hands in the wide grip and reverse grip positions, especially in terms of shoulder strength/stabilization? Thank you!

    • @HoopersBeta
      @HoopersBeta  2 роки тому +1

      The studies we reviewed looked at pull ups on stable devices and as such it was more appropriate to repeat them in a similar fashion for this video :) But that was the main reason for choosing them there. Ring pull ups are of course wonderful for the purpose you mentioned, improving stabilization. There is a small caveat, though. Rocks / Holds don't move :) so while performing on rings is great for added shoulder stability, performing on an immobile pull up bar is also good due to the specificity towards climbing :)

    Is shoulder impingement real? Or more specifically, if it is real, does it particularly matter? Thinking about the MRI studies suggesting very poor correlation between impingement-type tendinopathies and people’s actual experience of pain or impeded performance.
    Like is there good literature showing that impingement is more than a mechanistic hypothesis?

    • @HoopersBeta
      @HoopersBeta  2 роки тому

      You can also have nerve impingement / pain / symptoms and EMG studies of that nerve may come back completely normal :) Imaging doesn't always give us a 100% answer. Great question though!
