Introduction

In this book I will explain to you how to gain muscle mass and strength step by step in order to get your first pull-up. Pull-up is not easy exercise, but is extremely effective to improve your strength. According to me, it’s one of the most important bodyweight exercises. It doesn’t matter what your fitness level is, because the program has been designed for everyone.

If you are a beginner – don’t worry - everything in this book is explained in an understandable way. Let’s get started!

Why can’t you do a pull-up?

It’s not surprising that the pull-up is a great exercise, but unfortunately a lot of people are unable to do this. No matter how heavy weights you can lift in the gym, even a single pull-up may be quite challenging for you. To understand why you can’t do this, first, let’s take into account several factors; relative strength, grip strength, excessive bodyweight, core strength, and antagonist muscles.

Relative strength

In order to master the pull-up you have to possess a good strength-to weight ratio, what is called a relative strength. Relative strength describes how strong you are compared to your bodyweight. For example, you can weigh 200 pounds and lift 200 pounds in a deadlift – which means your relative strength is low. On the other hand, if someone weighs 150 pounds and lifts 300 pounds, that means his relative strength is much greater than yours. Regardless of his bodyweight, he is able to lift heavy.

When your bodyweight increases, your relative strength decreases. For example, a heavyweight powerlifter doesn’t need to develop relative strength.
