How This Program Works

If you’ve never done a pull-up, the key to success is progressive overload—gradually increasing your strength with a structured plan. This 4-week pull-up program focuses on:

🔥 Scapular Activation – Strengthening the smaller muscles that support shoulder stability for proper pull-up mechanics
🔥 Negative Reps – Practicing slow, controlled descents to build eccentric strength
🔥 Assisted Pull-Ups – Using Battle Bunker Resistance Bands or partner-assisted reps to reinforce correct movement patterns
🔥 Grip Strength & Core Engagement – Essential for controlling body movement and preventing unnecessary swinging

Each week, the difficulty increases as you develop the strength and technique required to complete your first full, strict pull-up.

Why You Need This Pull-Up Program

Pull-ups are one of the best compound exercises for upper body strength, core stability, and overall athleticism. They target key muscle groups, including:

✔ Latissimus dorsi (lats) – The primary pulling muscles of the back
✔ Biceps – Assists in pulling movement
✔ Forearms & Grip Strength – Essential for maintaining control
✔ Core muscles – Helps stabilize the body throughout the movement

Yet, many struggle to complete their first pull-up due to a lack of structured training. This free first pull-up program eliminates the guesswork, providing a proven strategy to build strength and achieve your first pull-up faster.
