Pullup workout for the complete beginner who cant even do a single pullup. So many of us were needlessly traumatized in PE class because we couldnt do a single pullup. How stupid! PE classes are the precise place where they should be helping kids to get strong enough so they can do their first pullup. Teach rather than embarrass! Not rocket science. I’ll teach you how to do a pullup since your PE classes wont!!!
Pullups are one of the most important bodybuilding exercises you can do and this video shows you how to do them at home even if you have no place to do them. Pullups are the exercise that give your back that cobra like flare and they work your biceps too.
This is part of my continuing beginners bodybuilding series.

I had a horizontal support beam running east to west in my home and did pullups on there some years ago. Age 16-19 I did it for three years with 200-300 pullups a day no joke for 4 days a week. I was so pumped friends started calling me Batman when I’d spread them. Now, I’d be lucky to get in 50 a day I’m so lazy.
Keep it up scooby!

@asdfgoogle ALL …
@asdfgoogle ALL pullup variations work the lats and biceps. The more you supinate your grip (ie hands towards you) the more the biceps contribute, but all variations are great lat exercises

@Profidelis …
@Profidelis Nutrition is VERY important in bodybuilding. If you exercise hours a day but eat garbage, you wont gain any muscle. Please check my website to learn what “good nutrition” is!
@asdfgoogle For …
@asdfgoogle For beginners (like the intended audience of this video) I recommend only the overhand grip (palms facing away from you). As you become an intermediate bodybuilder, you can add more grips to your workout.
Do we have to eat …
Do we have to eat protein to gain mass in the lats with pull-ups (and generally in any muscle) or this can be achieved with exercise only? For instance , if I do pullups for 3 months without protein , am i going to gain muscle or not? Is protein necessary for gaining mass ? I am 16 years old and I’m not sure if protein is something healthy for me. I do pullups in the gym with a machine that assist me with weight in order that i can get up ,but i don’t see any progress to my lats. Thanks a lot.
Scooby, how about …
Scooby, how about doing pull ups where you’re grip is facing each other? This is referencing the style pull up bar that you have. What does that kinda grip do? Do you recommend it?
Overhand = lats, underhand = biceps, “side hand” = ?????
I love pull ups! I …
I love pull ups! I have a similar pull up thing and I’d do like 30 within an hours time or so, and I love the feeling of sore lats!
The thing that sucks though is if you’re not used to it and you do too many, you’ll be so sore that it’s VERY uncomfortable to reach high above your hear, such as adjusting the shower nozzle, pulling something from the top shelf in the cupboard, etc. Just an FYI 😉

question @scooby
4 sets of 12 or 5-6 sets of 8 !?!?!?
imo more reps= more work bu muscle. more recovery…..
also. full body workout or split workout. !?!?
goals is weight gain. currently 220, 6,2, goin for 250
I think another …
I think another good substitute for pull-ups would also be resistance bands attached to a bar on the ceiling so you can simply pull them down. It would probably take longer since it’s not as much weight as your body, but again, another simple Home Workout that’s more or less a substitute for lats.
@Hotora86 Its …
@Hotora86 Its called “volume training” which is why I recommended 10 sets. It should actually take that long since you are only taking 1-1.5min between sets, you should be done in less than 15 minutes. To give yourself a complete upper body workout, add pushups using a similar technique (10 sets, drop to knee pushups if you have to to get your 8 reps). That will make an awesome 30min workout you can do once a week!
@jminzey1 If you …
@jminzey1 If you have weak arms? Do pullups as I show here. You will get stronger. If you want to focus a bit more on your arms then do 1/2 of the pullup sets overhand and 1/2 the pullup sets underhand
@BMXDiamondbak And …
@BMXDiamondbak And you know, so many of us were needlessly traumatized in PE class because we couldnt do a single pullup. How stupid! PE classes are the precise place where they should be teaching kids whats in this video so that they can get strong enough to do their first pullup. Teach rather than embarrass! Not rocket science.
