The Problem with One Arm Pull Up
The one arm pull up/one arm chin up is one of those moves that seems impossible at first. But despite its popularity and the label of ultimate feat of relative strength, lots of things about it remain unclear. Over my 8 to 9 years in calisthenics/bodyweight training I developed a burning desire to uncover the truth behind this skill. The inconsistency I observed within technique, rate of progression and methods being used amongst individuals inspired me to finally take a closer look at it. I spent last couple of months studying and investigating different aspects of the one arm pull up, I’ve been reading, testing things out and having conversations with experienced coaches and athletes. I collected my ideas and created this video for anyone who used to work, currently works or plan to chase one arm pull up in the future. This video is not a tutorial, I will not give you the ready program for getting this skill or tell you how much time it’s gonna take. However, what I will do is try to find out the answer to one bothering question. Why does one arm pullup come so hard to some people, while much easier to the others?

I don’t think I have to introduce front lever to any of the viewers. However...

Today I will tell you a bit about overthinking - one of the biggest trap calisthenics athletes (and not only) can fall into.

    for the height and weight for front lever , you also need take take the arms' length into account , my friend and I have the same pulling power and same force but he can do front lever easier 'cause of his arms's length (for statics it's easier on people with longer arms)

    Wow what a great video! I was especially interested in the weighted pull-up percentage carrying over to OAP section. I'm ~190cm and 90kg, my current weighted CHIN-up max is +80kg for 3 reps. OAP still feels totally impossible for me, but I have close to no specific training for it as I'm scared of injury and have been focusing on front lever. Planning to start very slow banded OAP training soon, this gives me hope that it will be possible.

  • @andrewmath3535
    @andrewmath3535 2 місяці тому

    This is the dumbest take I've ever seen. Yeah adding mass to your legs will make pull ups slightly harder, but how's that a bad thing? You're pulling up more weight and therefore getting stronger. Oh yay I can get 20 reps with chicken legs but only like 17 with thunder thighs. 😂 Pure ego mentality trying to get as many reps as possible instead of building overall strength.
