Go get your pecs sore, then do pull ups. That's the easiest way to tell if there is co-activation. If you're fancy do an EMG study. Pecs may not be the main movers here but I see where he is coming from. Since that muscle is involved in a wider array of shoulder movements, overcrowding fibers in the muscle itself, it is actually quite likely pecs will start to fire when the pull ups get heavy after a few reps. And don't forget a few muscles in the body change function the more flexion a joint has reached.
I feel like beginners would benefiit with rows and do things to work their way up to pull ups, considering most people cant do a single one

@@afanoflafear they don't directly hit your lats, your lats are used to stabilize your shoulder blades so when you're doing dips they work in sorta like an isometric hold
Hes right. I only do pullups do to a shoulder injury and they give me a chest pump and they made me gain chest size. The tricep growth from pullups is very little tho.
Great content brother
pull ups for chest 😬

Muscles that work antagonistically are still targeted either way. That's why some people get sore traps/scapula from starting off calisthenics with doing high volume of push ups with under-developed upper backs. Of course the load is less than doing chest-focused exercises. Now plus as he explained with pulling arm in, so it's a suitable supplement because hopefully you're training back anyways....

Good shit
I have been training forever, I even compete in powerlifting competitions, but I have never been able to do a good pull up or dip😕
That is a nice chest... good genetics
You are a stud
yesss
Yes
I read your pull-up book. Now my son has it.
Nice tjts bro
Do how do you train the bicep?
What are your thoughts on decline push-ups?
I can’t do pull-ups. Even when I was younger, leaner, and in pretty good shape, I could never do either pull-ups or chin ups. Maybe it’s a leverage thing, because I’m 6’6” with fairly long arms and a large body frame, I don’t know. I wish I had found a way to do them, knowing how effective they are.
This dude got a "Tower of Power" in the 90's, changed his life forever! 😁
Burpees? Thoughts? ☀️
I didn't realise dips were good for chest too!
If ur training calisthenics then u need divide ur routine in push pull and legs cuz all calisthenics exercise target more than one muscle at the same time. For example dips target both tricep and chest and the same goes for push ups.
I think his has natural Body without any supplements but with the good diet and good amount of workout
Those moobies are on point. Good job ✌️
Great vid thanks for helping people who need this. However Pullups are not a Chest exercise and do not involve the chest in any manner.

Bro speaking faxx that no one said 🥲
The Diabomber is the best bodyweight exercise for upper chest .. Pull ups are mainly back focused .. So It's dosen't make sense to claim this as a chest exercise
Marvelous 👍 but you've forgotten squats dude
Pull ups do not work chest. Absolute fluff...

@@robsmith5914 The muscle is attached to the sternum and where it stops doesn’t change and the guy in the video is a great example. He has decent chest development but it doesn't fill the gap. Same with biceps. Luimarco for example could never have arms like Sergio Oliva. They will never go past his tendon. Same with all other muscles.

biggest bs i heard from pull ups ngl, any pushing movement works the pushing muscles “chest shoulders triceps” and any pulling movement works the pulling muscles back and biceps.

Have you ever looked at an emg during a pullup? I have, he's correct, it does activate the chest to a certain degree, it won't build your chest a lot but it does activate it quite well. Let's just say your lats will always tire out first anyways
