In this video, Danny is covering one of the most valuable bodyweight exercises… Pull Ups.
Pull ups are a fantastic exercise for developing strength in your back (lats to be specific) and biceps. One of the great things about this exercise is that you can REGRESS this exercise, meaning you can decrease the difficulty of the movement if you lack the strength or stability to safely do a bodyweight pull up.
Today’s recommended Pull Up regression is a “Banded Pull Up” & here’s how you do it.
Setup
Use a squat rack with a pull up bar
Place racks facing in
Place band over racks
Hold onto bar as you step onto band
Balance both feet evenly
Performing The Exercise
Option 1
Increasing # of reps
Focusing on control coming down (Eccentric Phase)
Attempt 8-12 reps
Gradually increasing the length of time it takes during Eccentric Phase
Option 2
Increase length of time
Hold position at the top of pull up without band as long as possible
