@ozzynirvana666
3-4 times a week, he would do something like 5 sets of negatives.He counted down, between 5-8 seconds, and tried to get to 5 reps. When he started falling too fast, he would rest for 2-3 minutes. Eventually, he was able to do a pullup again, and did sets of one pullup until he couldn’t.
@chiconspiracy do you know how many sets reps etc. he did in a workout to get there?? i plan to join so i wanna know.
@HerroHerrar lol it doesnt work that way
Fucking karate ads
Anyone for a pull-up challenge at Konkura.com ?
Negatives are a great beginner exercise for people that unable or can only do a few pull ups.
Anybody who has ever had trouble doing pullups will attest that doing negatives helps *a lot.* Especially if you’re undertrained, you body, all the ligaments etc. are not strong and not used to bearing that kind of load. Doing negatives makes your body that much more safe and solid along the chain.
how many of those untill i can do one?
can u stretch tendons and ligaments hanging all the way down?
@Godlikehenry
If they’re going to be assisted, i suggest band assisted. Much better than the assisted pullup machine. Jumpstretch or IronWoody have great bands for that.
good advice .thanks for posting. hope it helps me.

@weeziee09 THEN I WILL NEVER GET TO LIFT WEIGHT FOREVER IN MY LIFE!!!
Negatives are good way to improve your ability to do pull ups. However, just make sure not to over do them. Negative techniques put tremendous amount of pressure on your muscles and ligaments that are underdeveloped. You might want to alternate your pull up exercises with assisted pull up machines and negative pull up on a different day.
for people who are wondering about pull ups, just take the following advice
if you cant do 12 comfortable pull ups, with good form, dont lift weights.
get good at pull ups and push ups, then move on to weights.
@rockfunker25: This is a power rack, used for weightlifting. (All those holes are so you can rest a barbell at various heights.) If you have access to a power rack, it works very well for pull-ups, but it’s probably too expensive to buy one if you just want it for pull-ups.
does anyone know what brand that pull up bar is
I am trying to find one but i keep finding pull up bars that you attach on a door or wall
i want a stationary one like the one he has
this is very helpful–if I do these everyday how long should I expect it to take me to be able to do a pullup?
You have no idea what you’re talking about. Negatives are a proven way of improving strength to the point where an individual can do actual pullups. It’s used in rehab for athletes, and even the military. My brother became very ill during Marine Basic Training, and had to negative pullups due to strength loss. He went from being able to do no pullups to 7 in a month. Tell him it’s useless.
okay. dont get offended.
@spotdathief – Instead of responding without hesitation, stating that this exercise is useless, take a minute to do a bit of research on these type of exercises.
Negatives work because your muscle fibres are stronger once contracted- you may not be able to pull your entire bodyweight up but it is likely you can lower it. You are still developing grip and tendon strength and getting your muscles used to holding and lowering your entire bodyweight which will in turn help get you stronger and prepare you for pullling up. Once you can do a single pullup then do 9 negatives. Soon you will get 2 and 8 and so on.
that is useless because the point of doing a pull up is so you can lift your body weight, just like lifting weights. So, how will this help?…
Buen video pues
Do more pull ups then…lots more
