Product Name: Pull-Up Program – Meghan Callaway – The Ultimate Pullup Program
Description:
Unfortunately, you see very few women banging out pull-ups, as many women have been falsely led to believe that they are not capable of performing them. Many others are not training for pull-ups in a way that is conducive to success. Most of the females you tend to see thriving at pull-ups are elite athletes in their twenties or early thirties.
Not Evelyn, though. She happens to be in her late fifties, and can routinely perform a minimum of six pull-ups on a dime. At a time when most people attribute their lack of ability to aging, Evelyn is putting them to shame.
When Evelyn first came to me, she was suffering from debilitating neck and back discomfort.
Life certainly wasn’t easy for her. Forget doing pull-ups. Getting groceries, walking her dog, and performing regular daily tasks were, quite literally, a pain in the neck.
So, when Evelyn and I started working together, not only did I have the challenge of helping her reach her goal—the ability to do a pull-up—but I was also on a mission to help her rebuild her body so that she could properly achieve this goal for the first time in her life. Evelyn accomplished her goal, and we did so as a team.
Before Evelyn touched the pull-up bar, we practiced the raw technique of a proper pull-up and worked on mastering the basics.
Think of your body as a chain. When all of the links in this chain are strong, your ability to perform most exercises, including pull-ups, should dramatically improve. You do not want a weak link in your chain, and this applies to your entire body. If your core is weak, and the core includes all of the muscles in your body aside from your arms and legs, your ability to perform pull-ups will likely suffer.
Many people make the mistake of trying to go from A-Z, and do not follow the essential steps that will actually help them improve their pull-up technique, full body strength, controlled mobility, and stability/tension. As a result, they fail to excel at achieving their pull-up specific goals. Depending on where your starting point is, performing the appropriate pull-up regressions, horizontal pulling exercises, scapula/shoulder controlled mobility exercises, lumbo-pelvic stability exercises, grip exercises, and even lower body exercises, and only progressing when you are ready, will better prepare you to conquer the pull-up. Many people skip key steps and wonder why they aren’t making progress, get frustrated, and quit. Don’t make this mistake. Be patient, and the results will pay off.
So back to Evelyn, all of her training was done progressively, systematically, and consistently, and she reached her goal. In fact, she blew her goal of one pull-up out of the water. Now she is able to perform six. As an unintended bonus, her debilitating back and neck discomfort were gone. She also sculpted the muscles in her upper body, and felt more empowered than ever. With that in mind, it’s time to reevaluate your game plan.
2. Machine Assisted Pull-Ups – This is similar to the band assisted pull-up, but in this exercise, your body is actually doing even less work than in the band assisted pull-up. In this variation, you go up to the machine, select the weight you want to assist you, put your knees on the pad, and go to town.
4. Lat Pull-Downs – This is probably the least specific of all exercises relating to your pull-up progress.
There is no mention of glute strength. Yes, believe it or not, you need a strong butt to master the pull-up.
There is very little attention devoted to core strength. After you’ve performed pull-ups, you might notice that your “abs” are a little sore or at least feel tired. When you’re performing an actual pull-up, all of the muscles in your torso that surround your spine must work to keep your body stable and from swinging, and help you travel to and from the bar with ease.
There is also very little attention devoted to the muscles that control the movement of your shoulder blades, otherwise known as the scapulae. If these very influential muscles aren’t strong enough, and if you aren’t able to own the movement of your shoulder blades, you will likely struggle to perform a proper pull-up, or at the very least your form will be sloppy. The goal of this program is to help you perform many pull-ups, with outstanding form, and while keeping your body healthy.
While the pull-up is often thought of as an upper body exercise, it is actually a full body exercise.
Without strong core muscles, including the very influential glutes and the muscles that control the movement of your shoulder blades, your pull-up performance will likely suffer.
Once you tackle the above components, your path to dominating the pull-up will be much easier.
That’s why I made….
The Ultimate Pull-Up Program, which I have spent countless months perfecting, is an extremely comprehensive 160+ page master program that will help you solve many of the problems that are preventing you from excelling at or being able to perform pull-ups in the first place. I am extremely proud of The Ultimate Pull-Up Program. It is a game-changer.
The Ultimate Pull-Up Program is a four phase program that will lead you not only to pull-up mastery, but also to a striking silhouette, and the strength to go with it.
The Ultimate Pull-Up Program will progressively and systematically help you strengthen your entire body, and develop the requisite level of technique, so you will be able to dominate your pull-ups. Each phase will last roughly four to eight weeks, and in each phase, you will:
1. Improve your pull-up technique, so you can perform them efficiently
2. Improve your upper body strength, so reaching the bar isn’t so daunting and intimidating
3. Improve your upper body muscle tone/hypertrophy, so you have the ability to perform many pull-ups
4. Improve your scapular and shoulder controlled mobility, so you can travel to and from the bar with no fear
5. Improve your grip strength, so you have the hang time needed to perform multiple reps and sets
6. Improve your core and glute strength, so you leave yourself with no weak links
7. Improve your lower body strength, so your glutes, quads, and hamstrings are stronger than they’ve ever been and don’t hold you back.
Just like they did for Evelyn.
#1) Exercises for improving grip strength#2) Exercises for addressing shoulder health (stability and/or controlled mobility)#3) Exercises for addressing elbow health#4) Fundamental beginners section on breathing#5) Fundamental beginners section on bracing
All of these exercises will help improve your ability to perform pull-ups and will help keep your body feeling good (or at least help improve how it feels). Since I’ve added these exercises into my training, I’ve never felt better, and my pull-up performance has skyrocketed!
Like all of the exercises in The UPUP, these include detailed written descriptions, videos, and photos.
I have been a strength coach for over 15 years and have been a competitive athlete for over 25 years. I’m not just a coach who helps people get strong. I am incredibly passionate about what I do and for good reason.
Evelyn’s story, in many ways, is my story too.
When I was 28, I was in a bad car accident. This led to over five years of major body dysfunctions, various injuries, and endless heartache and frustration. I never thought there would be a light at the end of the tunnel.
Despite many low points and moments of doubt, I persevered until I found a solution, and in the process, learned a tremendous amount about myself.
Going through this lengthy ordeal made me realize how much I had been taking my health for granted. I also realized what gifts the ability to work out and simply move are. Once I made my comeback, so to speak, I decided that I wanted my workouts to be effective, but also extremely fun, empowering, and liberating. I also decided that I wanted my physical strength to more closely match my mental strength. To me, pull-ups accomplish all of the above and so much more. I want you to experience the same feelings and results.
Now, I’m sharing my methods with you.
**As I talked about above, band assisted pull-ups can be extremely useful if they are executed to perfection, but they are only a small piece of the puzzle to being able to perform pull-ups.

Her training related writing is always highly insightful, and her exercise videos always show good technique and control, based on the aforementioned I knew this manual would be good and I was more than happy to review it for somebody like Meghan. People can overlook “basics” or think they’re past them, but really “basic” compound exercises should always be at the heart of solid training programs no matter the level.
On this note, Meghan has created an excellent resource to improve people’s pull-up strength by working on the back, the core, glutes and posterior chain, so it’s somewhat holistic covering all angles.
After nearly twenty years lifting and over twelve as a professional, I learned a few new awesome cues and ideas that I’d not encountered before so for somebody new to the game this is a real fast-track to awesomeness and well worth the small investment in the resources.
The program is accompanied by quality exercise descriptions and clear videos, which I think is brilliant.

But with The Ultimate Pull-Up Program, the work is done for you. All you have to do is follow this program, and at your own pace.
In addition to the four phase programming, you will also get a bonus section:
Most programs get you to the goal and desert you. I want you to thrive and reach the heights of strength and empowerment you never thought possible.
Furthermore, once you master the pull-up, the bonus section will carry you beyond.
Can’t I find this stuff for free on the internet? — Of course you can. Good luck sorting out the gold from the refuse, figuring out how to perform the exercises correctly, and determining how to progress in a way that will lead you to your goal of performing one or many pull-ups.
What if the exercises are too advanced for me? — You get to keep this program FOREVER. You get to work at your own pace. Not only that, there are scaled down versions of these exercises so that I can meet you where you are. This is for all skill levels.
Okay, but what if the exercises are too easy? — I didn’t forget about you prodigies either. In addition to having scaled down versions of the exercises, I also included more challenging progressions throughout each phase.
Why should I even care about doing a pull-up? — The pull-up is one of the most effective and empowering exercises you will do. This versatile exercise will help you strengthen and sculpt your upper body; it also requires minimal equipment, and can be performed anywhere. As many people get older, they start attributing their lack of ability to their age. Women like Evelyn never did. In fact, they owned their age. They refused to succumb to the muscle loss and degeneration that are associated with “aging.”
