3d • Technique and form
Pull-up lessons learned
I just smashed some decent weighted pull-ups and chin ups last night and they felt great.
Feeling some good tenderness in my lats this morning. It got me thinking about how I used to never feel lat activation well on pull-ups.
It took starting pull-ups again almost from scratch to realise the importance of pushing my chest out at the top of the movement.
If I think about it I once was up to 30kg x 5 reps before but with very rounded shoulders.
No Im only on 6kg with much better form and a bit higher reps (about 9 at the moment) and feeling and seeing much better lat growth.
Still have to build my strength back up from before my injury but I feel like I’m a much better trajectory now.
Have any of you guys ever had this realisation about pull-ups?
