If you cannot do a pullup, here’s how you can achieve multiple:

1) evaluate starting point. If jacksfit level of skinny? Bulk. If skinnyfat? Cut. You should not Bulk when skinnyfat because your nutrition partitioning/testosterone will be shit. Cut to 13-15% bodyfat first.

2) skip the “scapular pullups” “deadhangs” and all this slop shitness youtube tells you works but doesn’t. This is how people spend months practicing yet being unable to do a pullup JFL.

3)skip the assisted pullup machine. It does not train the muscles well and feels awkward. Train towards a pullup by getting stronger on Lat pulldown, barbell rows, T bar rows, cable rows. Pick one vertical pull, one horizontal pull, get good at them. Being unable to do a pullup is caused by lack of pull strength. Cure it.

4)occasionally test and see if you can do a pullup. Remember, proper form has elbows more “infront” of body, less to the side. Try narrower(shoulder width) grip at first before going real wide. Wider is harder.

5) congratulations you got a pullup

Credentials: started unable to do a single pullup, sarcopenically obese, worked my way to 8 clean reps while being 30% bodyfat obesemaxxed before i cut.
