After dislocating my left shoulder during a stunt in a play. I was at my physical peak at the time. I was practicing IF and fasted training. Changed my life. For me, it helped me blow through plateaus I had for about 2 years. I was a lean 145 and trained hard to prepare for the play. I got to a point where I added a 20lb. vest and a 20 lb dumbbell for 6 reps, then finish with 4 body weight reps x 3 sets. After the injury I saw an orthopedic doctor, first question I asked -when can I do pull ups again? - It took me 12 weeks before I could do pull ups (beating his 6 month number) and another year before getting back to my previous peak.
I changed my traditional, added weight pull up warm up to this exercise today. All that added weight is NOTHING COMPARED TO THIS GODLY VARIATION OF THIS PULL UP!
You have changed my life. I can only do 3 each side and I-m exhausted. This insane!
Thank you Jeff!

I don't know why you only suggest the negative part of the exercise for this. I recently started doing almost all my basic body weight exercises by simply shifting more weight over to one side on the positive part and even more on the negative. The first time i did this for 4 pullup sessions, thinking only of my arms really, and about 10 or 11 days later i did my usual pullups and was shocked to find i had suddenly improved from 10 perfect form to 15 in that time. Ever since i've been doing most of my basic exercises - pushups, dips, shoulder press - like this with just body weight and seen great strength gains in all.

Dear bro
I really need your help.
I have not had good sleep in many days.
The thing is, I go to gym on alternate days sir. On The days I go to gym, I have very very troubled sleep.
But on the rest days I sleep better.
Usually
7 to 8 pm - gym
8: 30 pm - shower
10pm - dinner
11pm - bed
But its very depressing I'm not sleeping till 3 pm. And every morning I wake up by 7am automatically. But very tired.
Gym trainers do not give good reason. Internet has no good information.
Kindly help me sleep bro.

Hello. I'm sorry to ask you a bit longer question, but I just have to. I am 15 years old, I'm 178 meters high and I have 67 kg, I practice kickboxing 3 times a week. I want to have a six pack but I just do not have it, and as far as I know, I'm not fat. Now the question is whether I need to train the stomach every day, or to rest one? . Because in your application there is a day off, and in one video you have said more training. And should I run or not? Sorry for the long question, but please answer it. Greetings from Serbia.

Can you do a video on how many sets, reps, time between sets abs need to be done with. In 2 previous videos you talked about ab functions and the order of doing the abs, can a new video also include do you do one workout focusing on functions and next on lower, obliques, etc. Because it doesn't seem there are many upper ab endurance. I hope this makes sense. There are reactive that work obliques like the ping pong slams and lower, upper, obliques like the swiss ball abcs, right? Thanks

In the beginning I could do 15 reps 3 sets long (bodyweight, then I started adding weight like 10 kg and did 6 reps 4 sets and when I was done with the weighted I did 2 sets body weight till failure (which were about 8 reps. After adding weight I could do 22 pull ups in one set. I did this routine for some time. I increased my weighted pull ups by 15kg. Now I tried to do 22 bodyweight pulI ups again and now i can barley hit 12 pull ups in one set? What should I do?

Hey Jeff, I wanted to ask you what you think about working out every hour. Like, little sets every hour, say you wake up at 10 am and sleep at 10 pm, that's 12 hours, you're working out 10 to 11 of those hours and saving 1 for your daily routine, in those 10 to 11 hours you divide the routine, like, say you do 20 knuckle, diamond and fingertip pushups every hour until your routine/sleep. is this effective or recommended or just dumb? would a giant 3 hour workout be better?

This is the Jeff Cavalier I've learned everything from. He made a big impact on me just about a year ago when I started chosing fitness over physical self destruction and started my fixation on the complete opposite. I didn't know enough and he showed me everything. These days I live a healthy life and people tell me I'm ripped. That's a plus but more importantly is the path my life has taken and honestly speaking, Jeff guided me every step of the way. Thank you.
