Build A BIGGER Back With Pull-ups Workout | Pyramid & Dropset

Have you ever wanted to build a bigger and stronger back? Look no further because Chris Heria is here to show you how! In this intense workout, Chris takes you through a Pyramid & Dropset routine using pull-ups that will help you achieve the back of your dreams. Get ready to get in the best shape of your life!

The Pyramid & Dropset Technique

The Pyramid & Dropset technique is a powerful training method that combines volume and intensity to stimulate muscle growth. In this workout, Chris Heria demonstrates how to use this technique for building a bigger back.

The pyramid part of the workout involves performing sets of pull-ups with increasing reps. You start with a set of 1 rep, then rest for a short period of time before moving on to a set of 2 reps, and so on, until you reach the highest number of reps you can do with good form. This gradually increases the workload on your back muscles and helps to build strength and endurance.

Once you reach the highest rep count, you move on to the dropset part of the workout. This involves decreasing the reps with each set, but increasing the number of sets. For example, you might start with a set of 10 reps, then rest and do a set of 8 reps, followed by a set of 6 reps, and so on. This further fatigues the muscles and stimulates growth.

The Importance of Pull-ups

Pull-ups are a fantastic exercise for targeting the back muscles. They primarily work the latissimus dorsi, or lats, which are the large muscles that give your back its width and V-shape. Pull-ups also engage the muscles in your arms, shoulders, and core, making it a great compound exercise.

By incorporating pull-ups into your workout routine, you can develop a stronger and more defined back. They can help improve your posture, increase upper body strength, and enhance overall athletic performance.

Get Started With the Workout

If you’re ready to take your back training to the next level, here’s how you can get started with the Pyramid & Dropset workout:

  1. Warm up your muscles with some light cardio and dynamic stretches.
  2. Find a sturdy bar or pull-up station that can support your body weight.
  3. Begin with a set of 1 pull-up. Rest for a short period of time.
  4. Move on to a set of 2 pull-ups. Rest again.
  5. Continue increasing the reps until you reach your maximum capacity.
  6. Once you reach the highest rep count, start the dropset portion of the workout.
  7. Perform a set with a high number of reps, then decrease the reps with each subsequent set.
  8. Continue until you have completed the desired number of sets.
  9. Make sure to rest and recover properly after the workout.

Remember, it’s essential to maintain proper form throughout the workout. Focus on engaging your back muscles and avoid relying too much on momentum. Take your time and listen to your body.

So, if you’re looking to build a bigger back and transform your physique, give the Pyramid & Dropset workout with pull-ups a try! Chris Heria’s expertise and guidance will surely help you achieve your goals. Get ready to rock that V-shaped back and be in the best shape of your life!

Pull-ups are for me the best back exercise, you can only do pull-ups and your back will be BIG without any weights. 👍💪🔥 If you want to do above 20 pull-ups, then dumbbells may come in handy 😉

I started doing australian pull-up because I can't do a pull-up pregnant or not. I did that for one week and I already see a difference when I do my usual 20 minutes of pregnancy yoga.
