Topic: Difficult to pull myself up walls

[Brandon Smith]

I find it difficult to pull myself up walls after doing wallruns. I was only able to do it once and all the other times I cant pull myself up once I grab the ledge. What can I do to increase my strength for pulling myself up?

[Steve Low]

Pullups... or weighted pullups

The answer is in your question: pull ups

Oh wow. That was obvious lol. thanks

hey! also use you feet to sorta cat-run up to a good kick up position... use your whole body not just arms.... but pull-ups are a must

Negative muscle-ups!

In case you're not familiar with the concept, basically, a negative of an exercise is starting from the finished position and slowly going back to the starting position.

Find a ledge that you can get your arms on, elbows straight, legs hanging, with relative ease. Start from the up position, and as slowly as you can (which wont be very slow at first...) lower yourself down until you are hanging from the wall.

It can also be done on rails like this guy.

Try pull-ups and bar dips. And if you get good enough at those, go for a muscle-up. If you can do that you can beat pretty much any wall. And there's no feeling quite like getting your first muscle-up

Pull ups. Do the ones with the back of your hand facing you. High reps won't really help get stronger, so I suggest once you get to 10, start adding weight. Just like a few pounds at first.
