At work, we had a June pull up contest.
So in Strong-first fashion, I asked two of my colleagues to battle it out using two different style of programming. Thought I would do a write up about my findings. This is not an either or write-up. My results showed that they were both great programs...
Hello
I would like to increase my max of pull-ups. I have been stagnating at around 17-18 for 3 and a half months. I started with bodyweight grease the groove for 2 and a half months and then I continued with the fighter pull ups program also at body weight. I have tomorrow for the last day of...
Hello
I'm interested in learning more about how to increase muscular endurance.
I'm wondering if anyone knows why the Fighter Pull-up Program doesn't use 50% of your max reps approach?
From the examples I've seen online, it seems like you have to use 80%-100% of your strength for every set...
Hi Everyone,
Firstly, I just want to thank everyone who has contributed to this forum, it's been such a valuable resource for me whilst I've been training and I really value all of the information that has been broadcasted.
I'm currently training towards what I imagine is a rather common goal...
Hello,
I am in the middle of the Fighter Pull Up Program and having great results. I know the program suggests running for one month but I was wondering if there was a way to program this so it extends longer, like for 8 to 12 weeks? If not I’m looking for an effective program to implement after...
Hello all!
I was directed to try the fighter pull up program and have been seeing some good results. I started at 5RM. However I have a question. (Btw, I am 25f and training for the USMC PFT. )
Q1) my form would vary often, sometimes with the final rep of the first set to be questionable. As you...
Hi everyone,
I'm on day 3 of the Fighter Pull Up program and have some questions:
- I'm doing the 5 rep max program. I'm adding in double the amount of push-ups straight after the pullups. Is that advisable?
- I know you need to take at least 10 mins "rest" between sets. Can I skip for 10 mins...
Hi all,
My elbows start to complain if my pull-ups or chin ups exceed a certain volume threshold (generally around 30 or so in a session).
I have tried various tactics, slow and steady, breaking down the reps in varied ways (ladders, gtg etc) rotations of grips etc but elbows just do not...
We all know the Fighter Pull-up Program and many of us used it to gain some serious strength, but my question is, is there an alternative version of the program with Push-ups?
About me: 24M around 199cm 95kg currently doing 9 reps of BW+15kg pull-ups.
I started the Fighter Program at 4 reps, and have followed it to the letter, with an occasional extra day off, the start was difficult but I managed to make progress completely according to the plan.
When I got to my...
Hey all,
I've been getting back into taking care of myself after a long few years of doing little to no physical activity. I don't currently have any barbells, kettlebells, etc. so I was planning on starting with some bodyweight work.
One thing I'd really like to do is strengthen my upper...
So a post here about results of a recently completed weighted fighter pull program that got be a lifetime PR in the 1rm weighted pull up and max reps with 10kg.
In preparing for my next tsc in the elite division I needed to get my weighted pull up max reps higher(10kg). After calculation...
Hello everyone.
I have never run the FPP, but I would like to run the 3RM The Fighter Pull-up Program Revisited | StrongFirst
This is so that I can have a lot of energy when I practice my tai chi / qigong.
Basically planning on running the FPP by itself, with some stretching and breathing...
