Ultimate pullups training

Warm up before the training

A warm up is the most important and neccessary part of the training. During pullups we use various muscle groups and these need to be warmed up before we put them to training. Warm up prevents injuries and strains of muscles and joints.

We propose a 10 minute warm up routine. It will significantly reduce risk of injuries and what is also important - it will impove your training results (warmed up muscles are more efficient).

The warm up should be intensive. Do not spare yourself. Warm up is already part of the training. You should be sweated after you finish.
