If you’ve already nailed your first pull-up (congrats!), you might be interested in our article on mastering proper pull-up form. We’ll go over many of the same fundamentals here, but that article dives a bit deeper into refining your technique.
Tips for Getting Started with Pull-Ups
Weight Matters
It may seem obvious, but the more you weigh, the more challenging it is to lift yourself up for a pull-up. If your goal is to master pull-ups, one of the best places to start is with your diet. Getting your nutrition in check can make a significant difference. About 80-90% of weight loss is tied to what you eat.
Consider starting by tracking your meals or making small, sustainable adjustments in your diet to support your fitness goals. Reducing processed foods, focusing on lean proteins, and adding more whole foods like vegetables and fruits are easy ways to get started. Not only will this improve your pull-up potential, but it will boost your energy and overall fitness.
Prioritize Your Pull Exercises
Making your pull exercises a priority is crucial if you’re serious about achieving your first pull-up. It’s all too common for people to start their workouts with a variety of exercises—leg presses, chest presses, or cardio—before getting to back-related movements, if they even include them at all. However, if your goal is to conquer pull-ups, shifting your focus is essential.
Warm-Up Matters
Before diving into your workout, ensure that you’re warming up properly. A good warm-up increases blood flow to your muscles, enhances your range of motion, and prepares your body for the workout ahead. Dynamic stretches, such as arm circles and torso twists, can be particularly effective for getting your back muscles ready for action.
Start with Pull Exercises
After your warm-up, make it a habit to tackle your back exercises first. This not only allows you to approach them with fresh energy but also emphasizes their importance in your training routine. When your back muscles are your primary focus, you’re more likely to maintain proper form and technique, which is vital for preventing injuries and ensuring that you’re effectively working the right muscle groups.
Incorporate Targeted Back Workouts
Until you successfully complete your first pull-up, concentrate on the back exercises outlined in the levels and workouts provided in this guide. These exercises will help build the strength and endurance necessary for mastering pull-ups.
Personalizing Your Progression: Find What Works for You
The progression we’ve outlined serves as a general guide that works for most people, but it’s important to remember that it’s okay to adapt it to fit your individual needs and goals.
Slower Progression Method
This approach is designed for those who prefer a more gradual increase in intensity. If you find that you want to do fewer reps and advance to the next level sooner, that’s perfectly fine! Everyone’s journey is unique, and your body will tell you when it’s ready to take the next step.
We recommend moving on to the next level once you can complete 3 sets of 8 reps for a specific exercise. This ensures that you have built a solid foundation before increasing the challenge. Take the time to really master each movement, as this will help prevent injuries and build strength over time.
Accelerated Progression Path
If you thrive on challenge and feel ready to push yourself, consider the accelerated path. In this method, you can progress once you can do 3 sets of 5 reps. This quicker transition can be very motivating, especially if you enjoy seeing fast results. Just remember, this approach is best for those who have a good understanding of their limits and proper form.
Listen to Your Body
Ultimately, the most important factor is to listen to your body. Some days, you may feel strong and ready to tackle more challenging exercises, while other days, you may need to take a step back. Your progress is not just about numbers; it’s about how you feel and how well you perform each exercise.
Level 1 Pull-Up Workout: Bent-Over Dumbbell Rows
Introduction to Level 1
Welcome to your Level 1 Pull-Up Workout! This program is designed to build the strength necessary for performing pull-ups by focusing on foundational exercises. One of the critical exercises at this level is the bent-over dumbbell row, which targets the back muscles and helps improve your overall pulling strength.
Bent-Over Dumbbell Rows
Perform 8 reps for each arm (or as many as you can do).
Rest for 2 minutes to allow your muscles to recover.
Do another set and repeat until you complete 3 sets.
Choosing the Right Weight
When starting out, choose a dumbbell weight that allows you to complete at least 5 reps per set. It’s crucial to find a balance where the weight is challenging but manageable, as this will help you build strength effectively without compromising form.
Progressing to Heavier Weights
Once you can perform 3 sets of 8 reps for each arm, it’s time to pick up a heavier dumbbell. Progressing to a heavier weight will enable you to continue building strength and endurance, which is essential for eventually achieving your pull-up goals.
Workout Schedule
To maximize your strength gains, incorporate these bent-over dumbbell rows into your workout routine three times a week. Aim for the following schedule:
Monday
Wednesday
Friday
Make sure to give yourself at least 48 hours of rest between sessions to allow your muscles to recover and grow stronger.
Weight Milestones
As you progress, aim to lift a 25-pound (10 kg) dumbbell or heavier. Once you reach this milestone, consider moving up to the next level of your workout program. If you find yourself larger than average and struggling with the current weights, it’s okay to stick with this step a bit longer until you shed some weight and build more strength. You might want to consider using 35 or 40-pound (18 kg) dumbbells as you progress.
Level 2 Pull-Up Workout: Inverted Bodyweight Rows
Introduction to Level 2
Congratulations on reaching Level 2! In this stage, we’ll focus on inverted bodyweight rows, which are a fantastic exercise for preparing your body for pull-ups. This exercise not only targets the same muscle groups used in pull-ups but also allows you to lift your own body weight at a different angle, enhancing your strength and control.
Benefits of Inverted Bodyweight Rows
Inverted bodyweight rows offer numerous benefits:
Strength Development: These rows primarily target the upper back, biceps, and shoulders, helping to build the pulling strength necessary for performing pull-ups.
Core Engagement: Maintaining a straight body line during the exercise requires core stability, providing a bonus workout for your abs.
Scalability: You can easily adjust the difficulty by changing the height of the bar, making it accessible for all fitness levels.
Improved Grip Strength: This exercise enhances grip strength, which is crucial for performing pull-ups effectively.
Option A: Gym Access
If you have access to a gym or are considering joining one, you can follow this section as part of our 6-Level Gym Workout Guide. This guide is designed to take you from a total gym newbie to a pull-up progressing badass!
Setting Up Your Inverted Bodyweight Rows
Find the Smith Machine
Locate the Smith machine at your gym and set the bar at about chest height.
A higher bar makes the exercise easier, allowing you to focus on form.
As you gain strength, lower the bar incrementally to increase the difficulty.
Performing the Exercise
Set the Bar: Adjust the bar height to a position that challenges you to complete 3 sets of 8 reps with two minutes of rest between sets.
Body Positioning: Clench your glutes, engage your core, and keep your body straight throughout the exercise. Think of your body as a plank.
Pull Technique: Pull your shoulder blades down and back as if trying to pinch a pencil between them. This movement helps engage your back muscles effectively.
Focus on the Pull: Concentrate on pulling with your arms, drawing your chest towards the bar, rather than pushing with your legs. Pull until your chest touches the bar (not your neck) to ensure proper form.
Progressing Difficulty: Once you can complete all 3 sets of 8 reps comfortably, lower the bar height to keep challenging your muscles.
Modifications
If exercise is too challenging, bend your knees and keep your feet flat on the ground to decrease difficulty. This modification allows you to focus on perfecting your form while still working on strength.
Level 2 Sample Workout Routine
To integrate inverted bodyweight rows into your weekly routine, follow this sample workout schedule:
Monday: 3 sets of 8 reps of overhand bodyweight rows
Wednesday: 3 sets of 8 reps of underhand bodyweight rows (reverse grip)
Friday: 3 sets of 8 reps of overhand bodyweight rows
In the following week, alternate your grip: go underhand, overhand, and underhand to promote balanced muscle development.
Tracking Your Progress
Keeping track of your workouts can be incredibly motivating. Consider maintaining a fitness journal or using a fitness app to log your sets, reps, and how you feel during each workout. This will help you see your progress over time and keep you accountable.
As soon as you’re able to perform bodyweight rows with your body at a 45-degree angle or lower, you’re ready to progress to Level 3! This transition is a significant milestone, as it indicates you have developed a solid foundation of strength.
Option B: No Gym Access
If you don’t have access to a gym for inverted rows, don’t worry! Here are four alternative paths you can take:
Purchase a Door Frame Pull-Up Bar
Investing in a door frame pull-up bar allows you to perform rows at home. Hang a pair of gymnastic rings from it for additional versatility in your workouts.
Use Your Kitchen Table
Perform rows using your kitchen table. Make sure the table is sturdy enough to support your weight and exercise with caution to prevent injury.
Inverted Rows Between Chairs
Set up two sturdy chairs a few feet apart. Lie under the chairs and grip the edges to perform inverted rows. Make sure the chairs are stable to avoid accidents.
Consider Moving Up to Level 3
If you feel ready and confident in your strength, you can cautiously progress to Level 3 exercises. Just ensure that you have built a solid foundation first.
Regardless of where you perform inverted rows, always prioritize safety. Ensure that your equipment is stable and can support your weight. If you’re using makeshift setups (like chairs or tables), double-check their sturdiness before beginning your workout.
Level 3 Pull-Up Workout: Assisted Pull-Ups
Introduction to Level 3
Welcome to Level 3! It’s time to take the next step toward achieving actual pull-ups. In this stage, we’ll focus on assisted pull-up variations, which will help you build the strength and confidence needed to perform unassisted pull-ups.
Options for Assisted Pull-Ups
Assisted Pull-Ups with a Chair
Use either one foot or two on the chair, depending on your needs. Your feet should only provide support, so engage your upper body as much as possible.
A sturdy box or similar object can also serve the same purpose. Ensure it’s stable to avoid any accidents.
Assisted Pull-Ups with an Exercise Band
Exercise bands come in various strengths, or you can opt for a variety pack to facilitate easy progression.
Place your foot in the exercise band and pull yourself up, allowing the band to assist you in lifting your body weight.
Assisted Pull-Ups with a Partner
Have a friend or workout partner hold your feet behind you to provide assistance during each rep. Encourage them to use the least amount of help necessary to ensure you’re still engaging your muscles.
Assisted Pull-Ups on a Machine
Assisted pull-up machines are excellent because they provide consistent assistance throughout the entire movement. This is beneficial since bands can be easier at the bottom and harder at the top of the movement.
How to Perform an Assisted Pull-Up?
Follow these steps for proper form while performing assisted pull-ups:
Engagement: Clench your glutes and keep your abs tight throughout the exercise. Avoid swinging or using momentum to complete the movement.
Shoulder Position: Keep your shoulder blades pinched together behind you during the entire movement. This helps engage the back muscles effectively.
Focus on the Pull: Concentrate on pulling the bar down with your arms, utilizing your upper body strength.
Minimize Assistance: Use the least amount of assistance possible. For example, if you’re using a chair and can do multiple pull-ups with both feet on it, progress to using just one foot.
Adjusting Resistance: If using an exercise band, try to have several bands of varying tension so you can gradually decrease resistance as your strength improves.
Progression to Level 4
As soon as you can perform 3 sets of 8 assisted pull-ups with proper form, it’s time to move on to Level 4. This progression indicates that you’ve built a solid foundation and are ready for more challenging exercises.
Sample Level 3 Workout Routine
To help you incorporate assisted pull-ups into your routine, follow this sample workout plan:
Monday: Assisted Pull-Ups – 3 sets of 8 reps
Wednesday: Inverted Bodyweight Rows – 3 sets of 8 reps
Friday: Assisted Chin-Ups – 3 sets of 8 reps
This workout structure targets your pulling muscles and helps improve your overall strength and technique.
Overcoming Plateaus
Level 3 can be one of the toughest stages for many individuals, as it’s common to feel stuck while performing assisted pull-ups and chin-ups. If you find yourself struggling at this level, know that you’re not alone!
To break through this plateau, consider the following strategies:
Vary Your Workouts: Change the grip on your assisted pull-ups (overhand, underhand, or neutral grip) to challenge your muscles differently.
Incorporate Negatives: After performing assisted pull-ups, try lowering yourself slowly from the top position. This eccentric movement can help build strength.
Focus on Core Strength: Incorporate core exercises into your routine to help stabilize your body during pull-ups. A strong core supports better overall pulling mechanics.
Level 4 Pull-Up Workout: Top Holds and Bar Hangs
Introduction to Level 4
Congratulations on making it to Level 4! You’ve done an incredible job working on your pulling muscles and assisted variations. Now, it’s time to focus on building the strength and confidence necessary for unassisted chin-ups and pull-ups. Before diving into full-range movements, we’ll work on two key exercises: Top Holds and Bar Hangs.
These exercises will not only enhance your grip strength but also help you become comfortable in the positions needed for successful pull-ups.
Top Holds
A Top Hold is exactly what it sounds like: holding the top position of a chin-up or pull-up for several seconds (5 to 10 seconds). Many people find holding the top of the chin-up (palms facing you) more effortless than the pull-up.
How to Perform a Top Hold?
Start Assisted: Begin in the top position with your chin above the bar. You can use a box, bench, or another sturdy object to help you reach this position.
Shift Weight Gradually: As you get stronger, gradually shift more weight from your feet onto your arms until you can hold yourself unassisted at the top.
Use Bands if Needed: If using a band, aim for thinner bands to increase the challenge. Additionally, lift your feet and knees slightly to reduce assistance.
Bar Hangs
The Bar Hang is another crucial exercise that involves simply hanging from the bar, which may sound straightforward, but it’s highly effective for building grip strength and endurance.
How to Perform a Bar Hang
Grip the Bar: Grab the bar with your palms facing towards you or away from you. Many find hanging with palms facing away more comfortable, but either grip is effective.
Start Assisted: Begin with your feet on a box or another object for support. Gradually work on shifting your weight from your feet onto your arms until you’re hanging unassisted.
Retract Shoulders: Once you can hang unassisted, focus on retracting your shoulders away from your ears. This movement may be challenging but is essential for proper shoulder positioning during pull-ups.
Timing and Structure
Bar Hang Duration: Aim to hang for 30 seconds to 1 minute. Initially, you may break this into shorter sets (e.g., 10 seconds each) before working up to a full set.
Rest Periods: After each exercise, give yourself 30 seconds to a minute of rest. This may seem long for just a few seconds of work, but if you’re working hard, your muscles will need that recovery time.
Integrating Top Holds and Bar Hangs into Your Training
Here’s how you can structure your workouts to include both exercises effectively:
Monday:
Top Hold (Assisted or Unassisted) – 4 sets of 5 seconds
Assisted Pull-Ups – 3 sets of 8 repetitions
Bar Hang (Assisted or Unassisted) – 30 seconds total time
Wednesday:
Top Hold (Assisted or Unassisted) – 4 sets of 5-10 seconds
Bodyweight Rows – 3 sets of 8 reps
Bar Hang (Assisted or Unassisted) – 30 to 60 seconds total time
Friday:
Top Hold (Assisted or Unassisted) – 4 sets of 5 seconds
Assisted Chin-Ups – 3 sets of 8 reps
Bar Hang (Assisted or Unassisted) – 30 seconds total time
LEVEL 4.5 PULL-UP WORKOUT: THE HIDDEN LEVEL
Introduction to Level 4.5
Welcome to Level 4.5—the secret hidden level of your pull-up journey! While we’ve been focusing on Top Holds and Bar Hangs, it’s crucial to address another vital component: core strength. Enter the front plank, a fantastic addition to your routine that will help you stabilize and strengthen your midsection, enhancing your overall pulling performance.
The Importance of Core Stability
You may have noticed that your core plays a significant role in the effectiveness of your pull-ups and chin-ups. Engaging your midsection and glutes not only supports your body during these movements but also enhances muscle activation through a phenomenon known as muscle irradiation.
What is Muscle Irradiation?
This term refers to the way that activating one muscle group can lead to the simultaneous engagement of nearby muscles. For instance, when you flex your biceps, you instinctively squeeze your hand tightly. This helps your biceps contract more effectively, and the same principle applies to your core during pull-ups.
Introducing the Front Plank
The front plank is a fundamental stabilization exercise that will fortify your core and help improve your overall strength for pull-ups. Here’s how to incorporate it into your routine:
How to Perform a Front Plank?
Start Position
Begin by lying face down on the floor. Place your forearms on the ground, aligning your elbows directly under your shoulders.
Extend your legs behind you, toes tucked under, and lift your body off the ground, forming a straight line from head to heels.
Engage Your Core
Squeeze your glutes and tighten your abdominal muscles. Focus on maintaining a straight line, avoiding sagging hips or raised buttocks.
Hold Duration
Aim to hold the plank for 30 seconds to 1 minute. As you progress, you can increase your hold time or try variations to challenge yourself further.
Knee Variation
If a standard plank is too challenging, start on your knees for support while still engaging your core and glutes. This modified position will help build strength without sacrificing form.
Integrating Front Planks into Your Workout
After completing your Top Holds and Bar Hangs, include 2-3 sets of front planks:
Set 1: Hold for 30 seconds
Rest: 30 seconds
Set 2: Hold for 30 seconds
Rest: 30 seconds
Set 3: Hold for 30-60 seconds (if you feel capable)
Level 5 Pull-Up Workout: Negative Pull-Ups
Introduction to Level 5
Congratulations! You’re now dangerously close to achieving your very first pull-up. At this stage, we’ll focus on negative pull-ups, a powerful exercise that builds the strength necessary for unassisted pull-ups. This level is all about controlling your descent and developing the muscles involved in pulling motion.
What Are Negative Pull-Ups?
A negative pull-up emphasizes the eccentric (lowering) phase of the movement, which is crucial for building strength in your arms and back.
How to Perform a Negative Pull-Up?
Grip the Bar: Start by grabbing the pull-up bar with an overhand grip, ensuring your hands are shoulder-width apart.
Get Into Position:
Option A: Hop up on a chair to elevate yourself above the bar, then lower yourself down.
Option B: Jump above the bar so your chest touches it and begin the descent.
Controlled Descent: Slowly lower yourself under control until you’re at the bottom of the movement. A good pace to aim for is a “three Mississippi” count during the lowering phase.
Safety First: If you’re carrying extra weight or feel uncertain about the movement, take your time with the earlier levels to ensure you have a solid foundation of strength before attempting negatives.
Integrating Negative Pull-Ups into Your Routine
Here’s a sample workout routine for Level 5, combining negative pull-ups with other essential exercises to maximize your progress:
Monday:
Negative Pull-Ups – 4 sets of 1 rep
Assisted Pull-Ups – 3 sets of 8 reps
Bar Hang (Unassisted) – 30 seconds total time
Wednesday:
Top Hold (Unassisted) – 4 sets of 5-10 seconds
Bodyweight Rows – 3 sets of 8 reps
Bar Hang (Unassisted) – 60 seconds total time
Friday:
Negative Chin-Ups – 4 sets of 1 rep
Assisted Chin-Ups – 3 sets of 8 reps
Bar Hang (Unassisted) – 30 seconds total time
Progressing to Your First Pull-Up
Once you can complete all your negative repetitions with control, you’ll be primed and ready for your first unassisted pull-up! The exercises at this level are designed to complement each other and build the necessary strength and endurance for that momentous achievement.
Additional Tips for Success
Focus on Form: Ensure you’re performing each exercise with proper form. Quality over quantity is critical in this stage.
Listen to Your Body: If you experience any discomfort or fatigue, take an extra rest day or modify your routine to prevent injury.
Stay Consistent: Consistency is crucial. Stick to your training schedule, and remember that progress takes time.
Level 6: Achieving Your First Pull-Up or Chin-Up
Introduction to Level 6
Congratulations! You’ve made it to Level 6, where you’re ready to conquer your first pull-up or chin-up. At this point, you have two options to choose from:
Chin-Up: Performed with an underhand grip (palms facing you), which many find slightly easier.
Pull-Up: Executed with an overhand grip (palms facing away from you). This guide focuses primarily on pull-ups.
How to Perform a Pull-Up: Step-by-Step
Grip the Bar: Start by grabbing the bar with your hands slightly wider than shoulder-width apart, palms facing away from you.
Begin from a Dead Hang: Allow your body to hang straight down with your arms fully extended.
Engage Your Shoulders: Pull your shoulder blades down and back towards each other as if you’re trying to pinch a pencil between them.
Flex Your Stomach: Engage your core to stabilize your body.
Pull Up: Drive your elbows down and pull your body upwards until your chest touches the bar.
Pause and Celebrate: Take a brief moment to soak in your achievement—yell out, “I’m a champion!” if it helps motivate you!
Lower Back Down: Slowly lower yourself all the way back down to a dead hang position.
Weekly Workout Routine for Level 6
Here’s a sample weekly schedule to help you integrate pull-ups and chin-ups into your routine:
Monday:
Pull-Ups – 4 sets of 1-2 reps (if you can’t perform a rep, move on to the next exercise)
Assisted Pull-Ups – 3 sets of 8 reps
Bar Hang (Unassisted) – 60 seconds total time
Wednesday:
Negative Chin-Ups – 4 sets of 1 rep
Bodyweight Rows – 3 sets of 8 reps
Bar Hang (Unassisted) – 60 seconds total time
Friday:
Chin-Ups – 4 sets of 1-2 reps (again, if you can’t perform a rep, move to the next exercise)
Assisted Chin-Ups – 3 sets of 8 reps
Bar Hang (Unassisted) – 60 seconds total time
Overcoming Plateaus
If you find yourself feeling stuck between Level 5 and achieving your first full pull-up, don’t worry! Here are some tips to help you break through that plateau:
Add More Reps/Sets: If you feel stagnant, consider increasing your reps or adding an additional set. More work equals stronger muscles!
Slow Down the Movement: Increase the time under tension. This means controlling your movements more, focusing on a tempo of about three seconds on the way up and down. This applies to negatives, assisted pull-ups, and inverted rows.
Shoulder Positioning: Many people struggle due to poor shoulder positioning. When hanging from the bar, relax your shoulders so they cover your ears. Then, actively pull your shoulders down and back away from your ears. This helps set you up for a better pull.
Level 7: Advanced Pull-Up Moves
Introduction to Level 7
Congratulations on reaching Level 7! Now that you can comfortably perform 3 sets of 10 pull-ups or chin-ups, it’s time to take your training to the next level. You have several exciting options to choose from to enhance your strength and skills.
OPTION A: Increase Your Reps
Continue building your endurance by increasing your repetitions: Aim for 3 sets of 12 reps, then 3 sets of 15, and eventually 4 sets of 20.
OPTION B: Explore Advanced Pull-Up Variations
Challenge yourself with different types of pull-ups to target various muscle groups:
Wide Grip Pull-Ups: Grab the bar with your hands wider than shoulder-width to engage your back muscles differently.
Side-to-Side Pull-Ups: Move your body side to side as you pull up, targeting your lats and core for added stability.
Ring Pull-Ups: Use gymnastic rings to perform pull-ups, which will challenge your stability and grip strength.
Towel Pull-Ups: Hang towels over the bar and grip them as you pull up. This variation significantly enhances grip strength.
OPTION C: Weighted Pull-Ups
For those looking to increase strength further, consider adding weight:
Get a Weight Belt: A weight belt is ideal for hanging weights comfortably. It keeps the weight centered between your legs for a more natural feel, avoiding the awkwardness of a backpack.
Start Small: Begin with small weights (e.g., 2.5 lbs or 1 kg). It might feel silly at first, but it’s essential to build gradually.
Progressively Increase Weight: Warm up with two sets of 5 unweighted pull-ups, then aim for 3 sets of 5 weighted pull-ups. If you complete all sets with good form, add more weight for your next workout.
Sample Workout Routine for Level 7
Here’s how to incorporate these advanced exercises into your weekly gym routine:
Monday:
Weighted Chin-Ups – 3 sets of 5 reps
Assisted Pull-Ups (if needed) – 3 sets of 8 reps
Bar Hang (Unassisted) – 60 seconds total time
Wednesday:
Elevated Feet Bodyweight Rows – 3 sets of max repetitions
Negative Pull-Ups – 3 sets of 3 reps
