9 Assisted Pull Up Mistakes and How to Fix Them

Спорт

This series will zoom in on one exercise at a time and point out common errors and how you can fix them. At the end of the day, nothing is dogma, and your technique should be the one that gives you the highest stimulus at the lowest cost of fatigue. To make sure you're getting the best of both worlds, check out our SFR video: www.youtube.com/watch?v=SwT14...

    Excellent overview by Dr. Mike. The eccentric focus to me is really key, I really work to a count of 5 on the way down, even if I need to use more weight on the deck, it's worth it, i can feel the difference in my back vs. conventional pullups. Dr. Mike has great content on all lifting techniques, but this is the fucking bomb (Dr. Mike I have to use your adverbs!)

    Progression methodology question for these: If the main goal is to be able to do X unassisted pull-ups (i.e. main goal is not hypertrophy), which of the following progression schemes would make more sense?: A) Choose a weight on the stack that allows you to do X assisted pull-ups at RIR Y, and decrease the assistance over the course of the meso/multiple mesos while trying to always hit X reps at the prescribed RIR. B) Hold the weight on the stack constant over the course of the meso/multiple mesos, get the reps you can at the prescribed RIR, and let the reps slowly increase over the meso/multiple mesos.

    Both will surely get you to your goal, however which one gets you there the best waay depends on your current situation. If the reason you are not able to do as many pullups as you like is beeing fairly muscular but just not neuronaly strong enough A seems to be the better choice, if you do however lack muscle mass (maybe you just have fairly long arms) B might just be the better aproach in order to stimulate groth over varying rep-ranges.

    A little late to this, a mixture of both. But I think most importantly is to try do unassisted pull ups to begin with, especially with the eccentrics(jumping on the bar, lowering yourself down 4-6s etc) and progressing with that instead. I don't think assisted pull ups help much with doing an actual pull ups itself but it gets you stronger in a certain pattern for sure.
