@@Rippa_tha_Reapa there's something called quick glances... apparently you've never heard of them. Let me explain some brain biochemistry to you. Your brain loves to simplify things unless, you are learning something new. Reading sentences is something, that is subconscious in our brains so when you read a short sentence, you will typically skim it or just read it so fast. That's what happened here with me. I read the sentence quickly and when I got to the word fearless, my brain simplified it to fatherless before I even realized due to having a quick glance of the word fearless and making an error in deciphering it as fatherless.

He seems like the most humble professional in the world. The way that he speaks to his client is like hes trying to boost the confidence of him at the same time make sure he understands the effectiveness of the unique training.
I was stalled for an entire year and didn't know what to do so I did everything! only variations ultra wide, weighted and explosive wouldn't over fatigue the muscle of course, low volume, high intensity and after adding 3 plates for 6 reps, doing ultra wide for 8 reps and doing explosives to the sternum for 5 reps, my normal pull ups are smooth and I reached 25
Op, add weight, more than you can pull up with, then get assist to get up to your chest on the bar, then hold and slowly lower the weight. You can always hold more than you can lift, and you can aleays lower more than you can hold. Work those negative reps to get thru your sticking point till it results in you being able to do more reps/weight
@@expectopatronum3668I’ve plateau’d even with weight. I can do 5 with a 25 plate, then drop set and finish out with 2-3 more unweighted. I also fatigue after the first set and the numbers practically cut in half by 2nd or 3rd set. I’m thinking of doing more power, more sets, fewer reps. Not to the extreme of a power lifter obviously, but maybe 4-5 powerful reps, 5-6 sets.
I live how the student is so focused on the bar saying I can do more, but his instructor reminds him to take a step back to receive more clear instructions before continuing.
@@Man-u-flex lmao, how insecure do you have to be to say something like this. Dude spends his whole day scared to death of everything around him. Comes to UA-cam to blow off some steam lol
That tattoo design he has on his back is interesting because I've only seen that design in prison, its usually hand drawn and obviously each artist does their own twist
Dr. McGill was a young professor of mine at the University of Waterloo in 1987. Little did I know that he would become a legend in his field. He often told a joke before the teaching started.
@@juanbonilla1006you can take as long as you want lol. don’t get ridiculous tho but seriously. this guy isn’t saying anything new or crazy at all. he’s just giving him a good schedule to train on. your back really can only take being trained a couple days a week. but literally the more you add on the more you can do. it’s literally that easy. i started out being able to do 3 and now i’m up to 20. i did 1,000 in 6 days. that was extreme but i wanted to see if i could. haven’t done anything to that extreme since then. but yeah. super easy and FUN to train once you can throw yourself around like you weigh nothing
@@lachlanbrown409 uninformed take. You never did CrossFit seriously and don't understand the point of metcon. CF didn't get it all right, but it made a major contribution to fitness, and provides and excellent approach and education for many. Plus a great community, at least when I was involved 10+ years ago.
For those who don’t know, it is called Greasing the groove and it works for most or even all forms of bodyweight training. The trick is to do about half (or less) of your max reps, all depending on goals of course, and doing it over a long period of time. Some days you do 5 sets of 2 or 3, other days 8 sets of 2, the idea is not to really keep track of it but to do them throughout the day, whenever having long period of rests (hours in between) the sets. The neuromuscular connection will deepen and activating the muscles necessary for the exercise will become second nature. This method requires consistency and patience though. Don’t try to track it just do sets throughout the day, if one day you’ve done less than others doesn’t matter, it’s about consistently doing it for weeks, months, and even years. If the exercise is something you do on a specific day (i.e pull-ups on back day) it is better to reprogram your rep scheme on those training days or to do a different exercise for that muscle group as you continue to grease the groove daily.

Yes. He’s adopted a more measured, wisened, sit-back-and-chuckle-at-life cadence to his speaking, from his stoicly sound, forcefully concise guidances. Too many mouth reps, not enough rest.
Between being a paratrooper with 80+ jumps, two resulting in hospitalizations.,two car accidents, two back surgeries.,i am a wreck trying to piece myself back together.
I'm not a powerlifter by any means, but I applied this method to my pull ups and the power increase over the last 2 weeks is noticable!! I'm wondering if I can also apply this to other exercises??!?!?
Probably! Half the body is fast twitch muscles but they seem really neglected with slow heavy movements among bodybuilders. Also that lobster claw grip works like a charm to overactivate the forearms when you hang from a bar, so you don't slip off as easily.
I remember Pavel Tsatsouline saying something about this, death-gripping the bar to better activate your back muscles. He talked about doing it towards the end of a conventional set though, to squeeze out a few more reps. Like, start doing your reps normally, then when you start getting tired you squeeze the bar as hard as you can. McGill's method sounds pretty interesting
I imagine the theory goes as follows and is pretty simple. Strength is largely neurological. Limiting reps means you limit fatigue. Which means you can crank out a ton of high quality reps producing as much force as possible. The grip being max effort and max effort explosive concentric is training your motor units to fire more efficiently and synchronized. Once you have those two things established, it's simply repetition that makes you better. You'll get stronger when you perform more reps that actually stimulate increased strength. Duh. Conventional bodybuilding training doesn't give you many of these stimulating reps.
I keep a hard squeeze for pull ups and curls I want Popeye forearms For curls it activates the brachialis more to grip the dumbells hard throughout the movement, and flex triceps at the bottom of the rep too
@@Npc1488-wc1kf That must be why my forearms in my 20s were so huge. Hammer curls were my favorite, and i still have callased skin under each digit from how hard i always gripped the bar. Getting back into it now after 8 years--still have the callases lol. Get that golfball sized muscle on the upper forearm/elbow when you flex. Forearms are underrated too. Women like them a lot, especially with long sleeves rolled up, etc.
I think that's what brought my pull ups up big time. At any time during the day, I'd go over to my pull up tower and do a clean all the way up and down pull up. Not with any Kipping but with controlled power.
I used to be able to do 3 sets of 20 pull-ups, the first 10 I'd hold a 45 with my ankles, drop it, and finish the set. I was very proud of my chin-ups. I had a big back injury from a motocross accident, I've worked hard at it but I've never been able to get anywhere close to that lvl of back strength since. I'm really glad I saw this video, it makes a lot of sense. I'm starting this today.
i had a accident as well almost lost my leg shit fkn sucks being consistent with stretching staying in motion!!! your body can no longer jst be chilling life is motion always moving forward! being still will kill you! consistent diet of herbs veg fruit in balance with lil meat you can uptake more nutrients folic & humic can boost the intake always read learn new shalawam...
I remember one day I was pissed off with something in life, I had pure anger in my heart. So I started doing pull ups each set until failure, started with 20, then 15. Each set was 10 reps in average. Total of 200 on that day. I had never done more than 20 or 30 in my life and that never happened again. It’s all in our heads guys, it’s all in our heads.
Ppl sometimes sleep on those singles. You can do that for any workout/really get volume of sets in. Like how the Doctor said focus on giving that max effort once. It will definitely translate into more efficient/proper reps down the road. Very good advice!
Just found a tree nearby my home and started doing pull ups on it. I think this is great advice. Im pretty heavy so doing more than 5 reps of pullups was pretty hard. I think i realised my problem
This is amazing! As a large human I always struggled with chin ups and always saw them as a failure because I couldn't pump out 10 chin. This guy is a great teacher!
As a youf I had a partner We would hold each others feet and spot each other We started with negatives, cuz fat And we also did chest to bar, not just chin near or almost Beginning like that with a spotter was gr8, I was I had one now

Between being a paratrooper with 80+ jumps, two resulting in hospitalizations.,two car accidents, two back surgeries.,i am a wreck trying to piece myself back together.
Look up this trainer he is great w rehab
I'm not a powerlifter by any means, but I applied this method to my pull ups and the power increase over the last 2 weeks is noticable!! I'm wondering if I can also apply this to other exercises??!?!?
can we apply this to semen releasing as well
gimme 30 sets of 1 NOW@@lulzak2591
@@lulzak2591do kegels and take sunflower lecithin, selenium, zinc, omega3. Done you're welcome.
@@lulzak2591just 1 really hard jack and it's done lol
Probably! Half the body is fast twitch muscles but they seem really neglected with slow heavy movements among bodybuilders. Also that lobster claw grip works like a charm to overactivate the forearms when you hang from a bar, so you don't slip off as easily.
I remember Pavel Tsatsouline saying something about this, death-gripping the bar to better activate your back muscles. He talked about doing it towards the end of a conventional set though, to squeeze out a few more reps. Like, start doing your reps normally, then when you start getting tired you squeeze the bar as hard as you can. McGill's method sounds pretty interesting
I imagine the theory goes as follows and is pretty simple. Strength is largely neurological. Limiting reps means you limit fatigue. Which means you can crank out a ton of high quality reps producing as much force as possible.
The grip being max effort and max effort explosive concentric is training your motor units to fire more efficiently and synchronized.
Once you have those two things established, it's simply repetition that makes you better. You'll get stronger when you perform more reps that actually stimulate increased strength. Duh.
Conventional bodybuilding training doesn't give you many of these stimulating reps.
I keep a hard squeeze for pull ups and curls
I want Popeye forearms
For curls it activates the brachialis more to grip the dumbells hard throughout the movement, and flex triceps at the bottom of the rep too
@@Npc1488-wc1kfur still small tho.
@@Npc1488-wc1kf That must be why my forearms in my 20s were so huge. Hammer curls were my favorite, and i still have callased skin under each digit from how hard i always gripped the bar. Getting back into it now after 8 years--still have the callases lol. Get that golfball sized muscle on the upper forearm/elbow when you flex. Forearms are underrated too. Women like them a lot, especially with long sleeves rolled up, etc.
This is like if Sun Tzu or Musashi taught someone how to use a bow.
It’s true. It’s the mind muscle connection that grows you. Well said sir.
I think that's what brought my pull ups up big time. At any time during the day, I'd go over to my pull up tower and do a clean all the way up and down pull up. Not with any Kipping but with controlled power.
I'm going to try this now!
Awesome...I'm going to try to doing one pull-up with max range.... I'm back, I did 20 x 3
This page only gets better respect
The way the old man said off like he’s a dog lol
That’s awesome. I didn’t know Pinocchio’s dad was a trainer 💪🏼👊🏼

dad is truth.
LOL was wondering who that guy made me think to, thanks
I used to be able to do 3 sets of 20 pull-ups, the first 10 I'd hold a 45 with my ankles, drop it, and finish the set. I was very proud of my chin-ups. I had a big back injury from a motocross accident, I've worked hard at it but I've never been able to get anywhere close to that lvl of back strength since. I'm really glad I saw this video, it makes a lot of sense. I'm starting this today.
you got this!
Keep us posted. Interested in your progress. You got this!
If it's been a few years get some deep tissue work done on your back from a reputed person.
i had a accident as well almost lost my leg shit fkn sucks being consistent with stretching staying in motion!!! your body can no longer jst be chilling life is motion always moving forward! being still will kill you! consistent diet of herbs veg fruit in balance with lil meat you can uptake more nutrients folic & humic can boost the intake always read learn new shalawam...
In my late 20s I would do 25+ pullups at 230lbs
Rn?
Not so much
The “pull-up” method might be gold but the “pull-out” method reigns undisputed
So valuable. In under a minute. Thank you for sharing.
Ive gotta remember this. Do this with everything in life
First video to ever make we want to do pull ups.
Fr I might have to give them another try now, always hated them in school
I have always loved pull ups...
Didn't realise Stan Lee got so involved with training the Marvel characters
Looked at that bar like it was gods prized possession 😭
I remember one day I was pissed off with something in life, I had pure anger in my heart. So I started doing pull ups each set until failure, started with 20, then 15. Each set was 10 reps in average. Total of 200 on that day. I had never done more than 20 or 30 in my life and that never happened again. It’s all in our heads guys, it’s all in our heads.

Ppl sometimes sleep on those singles. You can do that for any workout/really get volume of sets in. Like how the Doctor said focus on giving that max effort once. It will definitely translate into more efficient/proper reps down the road. Very good advice!
Going to start this tomorrow!
Better start today Because tomorrow never comes
@@conservativehippie13There is something called restday. I guess he meant the next session
😂😂😂😂😂😂
There is no tomorrow my friend, start today 🙏
@CensoredSheepChannel no it just means that when tomorrow gets here it’s no longer tomorrow. It’s today.
This is fascinating. I'm a HIT nerd so I'm going to have to do some field work on this :)
The pump is also insane. Felt my traps lower, upper and entire back in general. Wicked!
Just did the 50x2 routine. My whole upper body is totally sore.
REST TIME?
secs rest?
bull
Just gotta stop being sore bro
Rest time?
It’s like when Cloud Strife learns about the Universe from Bugenhagen in RedXIII’s homeland of Cosmo Canyon
McGill and Dan John are the two strength coaches EVERYONE should be listening to.
He’s a very decent trainer much respect 🙏
I came up with this while creating my own calisthenics workouts and now I'm getting confirmation from the universe that it truly works 🙏🏻
That is awesome 😁 Just wondering, if you do 30 sets of 1’s, how long do you wait between sets?
The Universe is tired of your Antics
@@matsemillianLook up cluster set training for your answer.

I've been doing pull-ups like this for years, I just listened to my body and ended up with this form
i feel this old man can teach anything

Gary Oldmans a hell of a coach
The all new ONE EXPLOSIVE PULL UP SYSTEM (mah favorite).
To be able to do a pullup like that at that weight with good form is insane
Perfectly in line with Mike Mentzer's Heavy Duty wisdom!
He’s the man!
that guy is a great teacher
Dr. McGill hasnthenvoice and demeanor of a true assassin.
Man's brought the doctor home
That guy explaining looks like how old Mike Mentzer would look like
I was thinking the same
Just found a tree nearby my home and started doing pull ups on it. I think this is great advice. Im pretty heavy so doing more than 5 reps of pullups was pretty hard. I think i realised my problem
This is golden a guy told me this in highschool but I never listened to the free advice
WISDOM is with that coach.
This is amazing! As a large human I always struggled with chin ups and always saw them as a failure because I couldn't pump out 10 chin. This guy is a great teacher!
As a youf I had a partner
We would hold each others feet and spot each other
We started with negatives, cuz fat
And we also did chest to bar, not just chin near or almost
Beginning like that with a spotter was gr8, I was I had one now
Think of bending the bar in half
That’s the ultimate cue
