#The Ultimate Pull-up Program

Every muscle group has a gold-standard exercise for strength and growth. These time-tested compound movements form the backbone of any training regimen. When it comes to back training, no exercise can equal the pull-up for effectiveness and versatility.

Despite its usefulness, the same big guys who jump at the chance to get under the bar for a bench press shy at the thought of jumping up to a pull-up bar. Yeah, pull-ups are tough. Sure, you might be bad at them. But everybody has to start somewhere.

This insane workout is meant to attack your back from every angle. You hit pull-ups for an entire hour with all types of grips and hand positions. When my boy Dust and I want to attack this workout, we aim for 200 reps and take as little rest as possible. Usually, we rest just 30-60 seconds, or until the other guy is done with his reps.

If you're unable to do more than one or two reps at a time, try using a pull-up machine, a band, or a box for assistance. There's no shame—everybody has a starting point.
