Interesting thread.

I see many online videos on pull ups or chin ups, the arms never straighten.. or jerk the body..

Don't bluff yourselves, want to do must do properly ones ok?

Interesting thread.

Don't bluff yourselves, want to do must do properly ones ok?

there is actually a reason for this.

4) Maintain a VERY Slight Elbow Bend Throughout the Set

This goes hand in hand with the above tip. Before starting your set you want to bend your elbows ever so slightly.

This bend should barely be noticeable, but it will have a huge impact on your elbow health.

Do not start with your elbows completely locked. This, again, places all of the stress on the tendons and ligaments instead of on the muscles. On each successive rep you should lower yourself until your arms are nearly straight, stopping just shy of lockout.

But don’t use this as an excuse to cheat. Just shy of lockout means that your elbows are “99% locked out;” you just don’t want that complete extension.

Normally I ensure that my scapulas are squeeze back at the bottom, imagining squeezing a pencil in the middle of my back.

3) Start in the Proper Position

All too often people start in the dead hang position with their scapula elevated and their shoulders touching their ears. This is dangerous and incorrect.

When you do this all of the tension is placed on your tendons and ligaments instead of your muscles.

When you get on the bar you want to pull your shoulder blades down and lock your shoulders into their sockets. This is a far safer position and ensures that the stress will be placed directly on the muscles and not the tendons and ligaments.

Top 10 Ways to Improve Your Pull Ups - How to Build Muscle | Strength Training Workouts | Mass Gain Diet | How to Build Muscle | Strength Training Workouts | Mass Gain Diet

This is just for training purposes. If IPPT requires a certain pull up standard, then we have to adhere to it.

But the ELISS machine only takes note of arms extended more than 90 degrees and knees not raising IIRC

Seldom see this type of solid pull ups.

Very sincere and down to earth counting.

Can't imagine I watch it from start to end.

hyperextending your neck while doing the chin up?

keep a neutral spine,tuck your chin in or face straight during the pull. if you have to really strain your neck to ensure chin goes above the bar you're doing it wrong.
