In this video I talk about the importance of using paused reps to elevate your pull up performance. Paused reps are a powerful tool for improving your pull up technique and strength at the top of the pull up. By improving your strength and mechanics at the top of the pull up, you can improve your performance on weighted and regular unweighted reps. Paused reps give you an opportunity to analyze your position in the top of the pull up, correct it, get stronger there, and reap the benefits across all of your other pulling exercises.

Hmm... find something you can do, like a grip variation, width, or position you can train pain free. If that doesnt work, I would get it checked out to see if there is something you can specifically do to prepare it for harder training.@@justadude4826

Another neat thing to get strong at the top of the move is isometric holds at the Apex. Use a step or box, get into the final position and step off, using maximum tension to stay fixed at the top for a timed duration. You can do an exaggerated slow negative, rest and repeat. This really improved my pull up top position for regular reps.
@Kboges

Absolutely! That is a great suggestion. I think a lot of people miss out on the benefits of dedicated positional work with the pull up. In my opinion, that's what unlocks the movement and elevates it to a true top tier pulling exercise.
I love how short and on point these are! Thanks

Dude I really appreciate that. I’ve come to realize I’m exceptionally average in just about every respect,but I’ve worked really hard on my ability to communicate ideas to other average people in a way that’s clear and concise. Hearing that I’m actually accomplishing what I’m attempting to do is simultaneously relieving and an incredible compliment. That truly means a lot. Thank you.
its very good to see someone thinking like this, prioritizing mechanics and form instead of ego! Congrats!!
THIS IS GENIUS! THANK YOU! K Boges is a Legend!
This is exactly what I needed to hear- thank you! I've been doing a long series of 1-rep-added progressive pull-up workouts (on #24 of 35). I saw these pull workouts as working on the bottom of the movement. But your video made me realize that I fail at the top! Time for a reboot!
@Kboges
7 ай бұрын
Yeah, both absolutely have a place. If what you are doing is working great, keep at it. When you stall, start adding these in and doing a little more work at the top. I've been focusing on these for the last year or so, and my ability to grind at top with weighted and unweighted reps has improved SOOO much. I can also keep my mechanics together much better with weighted reps. I recently his a multi set PR of 2 sets of 20 with 22.5 lbs, speed reps, and the strength I had at the top was eye opening.

They are very humbling and can be very frustrating, and observable progress can be slow, but the benefit long term is just wild. I honestly think they are the most important variation for most people because they solidify a technical foundation that’s useful for weighted rep, unweighted reps, and other pulling movements.

Yeah that's another application. I honestly think they are the single most underrated "variation", or technique, that there is. When I see most people doing pull ups who complain about stalling, or lack of muscle mass, paused reps are almost always a good option because they can fix so many things that go wrong with the pull up.

Getting better at anything is literally about just chasing that perfect form for every rep. Even if it makes you able to do less reps than usual, it’s only because it’s working your muscles harder and you are getting more stimulus faster, not to mention that the eccentric part of any movement is the main driver of muscle growth.
