The pull-up is one of the most classic strength training exercises you can do, and also one of the best! But how do you manage your first rep if you can’t do pull-ups today, and how should you train to progress to 10+ reps?

Or should you stick to lat pulldowns instead?

In this episode, we also discuss the biomechanics and muscles used in the pull-up and lat pulldown, as well as their pros and cons.

This is the sixth and final episode in our series covering ”The Big 6” exercises: the bench press, squat, deadlift, overhead press, different kinds of rows, and pull-up/lat pulldown.
