A friend of mine can do almost 100 (!) lbs 1RM so I decided to try 50 lbs with my kids: https://www.instagram.com/p/DYm7ZNDukh_/ How did I do? 😁 I was sore for two days beyond belief.

hi Yuan, I saw your video yesterday! haha looks like both of you were having a lot of fun. Some coach Advice: Given the ROM you were able to move it's a sign, that you would need to work with lower weights FULL ROM in order to move your kid with your chin over bar. I recommend using progressive overload, include deloads all 5-6 weeks and work with reps range 8-10 weighted at the beginning. As you get stronger you can reduce reps (volume) to 4-6. Strength gains but also hypertrophy will be amazing. Let me know if you need any further guidance. 😊💪🏽

💪🏽Training update

hi warriors, How's everyone doing? Any progress with Handstands, Pul Ups, Push Ups? Let me know down below. 😊 I just uploaded some outtakes of my training from yesterday with my painful arm lol. I was happy to see that somethings still work to some extent. However I need to continue with my rehab protocol in order to get to 100% and also to listen to my body ( the hardest part) when you're ABOUT THAT LIFE haha Wish you a wonderful day! ❤️ Summer finally arrived here in Switzerland, which is truly a blessing. 🔥 Saludos, Coach G

😑Life's been busy

Hi Warriors! Hope you're all doing well! Quick update from my end as I've been a bit quiet lately. I'm currently putting a lot of energy into growing my coaching business full time here in Zürich. Big move, lots going on but I'm fired up. 🔥 And no, I haven't forgotten about you. The Pull Up YouTube Guide is in the works and it will cover everything from your very first rep to pushing well beyond that. Worth the wait. 💪🏽 On the injury front... my elbow decided it wanted company. 🥹😂 Some of you know I'm being coached by an elite calisthenics and gymnastics coach. We're working on some seriously advanced skills: Rings Maltese and Victorians. Both demand incredibly strong tendons and connective tissue. Right now my right shoulder is sending some signals, most likely pecs, biceps or back muscles under too much load. So for now I'm dialing it back, working with bands and focusing on rehab. Smart over stubborn. 😤 The journey continues. Quitting is not an option. Saludos, Coach G

Hi Tahera, Sorry to hear that! Is it fully healed by now? And yes, i highly recommend getting one of these to prevent ripping your hands. Ideally you do this treatment 1 or 2 times per week. Hands normally rip due to overuse, gotta take care of yourself: https://www.amazon.de/Glamy-Elektrischer-Hornhautentferner-Ersatzrollen-wiederaufladbar/dp/B0G65Q28Y7/ref=sr_1_5_sspa?crid=2RVHU86Y89UVP&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.nzxs2LTdVm0eJxe7FX5RSKOf384gCqxXg5Qjfaqz1cGiv2GyekIbR0wFo72rB2pdujkz4-cRvazd2WCLdrqEB6lH21xbm3BmL20wJjX2NOLfT6UJ5pMSaFXzZz8tVU14pG_LmVpN_5TDRLkKdoZd-uLFpwhRjArltLSVar_5VlliMJxbzbVW_sqyVY5_lU8CFxKRKmYkkIZgP11UrKBQ92BZqnkbAuMTp6F0WlqBDUvDUQqcJTUzyJpkoYEpy3fXAkR-S0gfrXm2zsLsRyryCjrXUrw_EWtJyU32y-Fr1Ck.tzxgOQhPiwMLQE4B5WB1VGwtUmLbdcIrzf4BZDMRWjE&dib_tag=se&keywords=hornhautentferner%2Belektrisch&qid=1779172094&sprefix=hornthaut%2Caps%2C147&sr=8-5-spons&aref=cBdgibN1oa&sp_csd=d2lkZ2V0TmFtZT1zcF9hdGY&th=1
