Description

Can you do one pull up? Because if you cannot, you absolutely must be able to!

Put in most simple terms being able to do a pull up represents the ultimate test in fitness, pure strength and raw power - all qualities associated with manliness.

There are so many benefits that come from being able to do the pull up. Too many to list, but here are a few that are very important:

  • You get stronger
  • Your upper body gets bigger and more defined - sort of like the upper bodies of the ancient Greek and Roman warriors
  • You develop the upper body muscles that will help you tremendously in other major exercises, like shoulder and bench presses

I'm talking from experience - I know how instrumental the pull up exercise was in my own physical development and my athletic career..

Hi, my name is Ivan Nikolov and I teach this Beginners Pull Up Tutorial course.

I've spent over 23 years doing hard gym training and competing in natural bodybuilding competitions. And, I have to be honest - no other exercise has helped me so much to develop my upper body as it has the pull up - so much that for the last few years the pull up is literally my main exercise.

Here are the details:

These days I do more than 200 pull ups each week. You can do the math if you want, but that amounts to over 20 thousand pull ups in the last two years alone. At this point I feel like I can pull up better than I can walk... figuratively speaking!

I just recently completed a full video catalog of 35 variations of the pull up exercise all that are known to me - starting from the easiest - the simple pull up to the most difficult variations, including the one-arm pull up.

So, I know a thing or two about pull ups... and I teach you everything I know in this Beginners Pull Up Tutorial course!

Let me tell you a little bit about this course: In this video course I don't waste any time at all - I get you working fairly quickly. Here is how:

  • I give you the basics so you can lay a solid foundation
  • I then then personally demonstrate what I'd want you to do, using equipment that can be found at kids playgrounds and it's free, and
  • I give you your own workout plan to follow

The workout plan is a step-by-step routine with exercises and progressions that are guaranteed to take you to your first pull up and beyond. How far beyond? As far as you want to take it, as far as I've taken it or even much farther!

The sky's the limit. You just have to start!

So, enroll in this course right now! You don't have anything to lose and so much to gain! See you inside the course!
