[VIDEO] Winning the Pull Up with Your Core

It’s ‘Week 2’ of the Push/Pull Partner Challenge, and we’re progressing the pull up conversation from last week. The video above will give you a specific focus to win more reps with greater quality in your pull up, regardless of style.

Most athletes jump up to the bar for pull ups and think “arms” or notice all the swinging we see in the gym and think “legs and arms.” The truth of the matter is the kipping pull up starts in your belly.

Good luck, athletes!
