  This is a really good change of perspective. Aim small, miss small.

  Lol. This guy was already ripped. All he did was lose some fat. That&apos;s called &quot;cutting&quot; 😂😂

  Someone said to me long time ago, just to share we just work like the small ants that keep doing it without worrying of outcome.

  Great insight. Subscribed, and good job man, simple but profound life lesson.

  If you are wondering what was the point.<br> The two sayings don&apos;t mean the same thing.<br>During the first month he focused on winning each day (aim small).<br>During the 3rd month he was focused on the final outcome (aim big) he lost focus because he didn&apos;t have to win each day and did zero for many days. <br>It&apos;s a lot easier to focus on what you will do the next day versus what you will do for the next month.<br>A sports analogy is trying to win the championship (aim big) versus<br>Trying to just win the next game (aim small) without worrying about the championship.

  Hi PE! You have inspired me to take up the challenge! I&apos;m 68 and can hardly do 2 pull-ups! But I realized that if i rest between sets, I can do more. So I&apos;m now starting with 10 sets of 2, then aiming for 7 sets of 3, 6 of 4 &amp;c. Week One, let&apos;s go!

  You can further refine your pullups. Even when your pullups improved I can see how you can improve them alot. Otherwise you&apos;ll hit a wall with your central nervous system getting too sore where your pullups amount will stay the same with gradual improvement. <br> <br>When you did your improved pullups you still went faster with momentum as you go up on the positive/concentric, and you ignored the negative area as you went down on the negative/eccentric. A lot of guys do this even the &quot;back guys&quot; and &quot;pullups guys&quot;. <br> <br>Be strict with no momentum whatsoever with complete grip control engaging and using your back muscles as you go up on the positive/concentric, and go down at the same speed on the negative/eccentric of the movement still keeping your muscles engaged in this negative part of the movement with complete grip control as you go down in a controlled pace with muscles completely engaged instead of dropping down. <br> <br>Go at the same exact pace on the positive of the movement and the exact same pace on the negative of the movement. Go at a medium controlled pace. Use your stabilizers the whole time on the positive and the negative of the movement. <br> <br>Quit when you feel your muscles giving up instead of having reps where your muscles aren&apos;t engaged. This teaches your body to use your muscles instead of forcing your central nervous system. You will go short on a lot of sets for this at first. After awhile you&apos;ll have it synchronized the number of reps you can hit to the max potential or near it while keeping your muscles completely engaged. <br> <br>Most people force it where they go beyond in reps to where their muscles give up and aren&apos;t engaged. You can have good form when your muscles give out to a degree but good form won&apos;t cut it, you&apos;ve got to listen to your muscles instead and give up when your muscles are no longer engaged learning muscular control. <br> <br>A lot of guys are killing their bodies not doing this in several muscle groups that causes them to plateau for a long time with limitations. You&apos;ve got to baby your muscles into it and start at area 1 before getting much further. Then once you hit this growth becomes rapid to get much further along to much later areas. <br> <br>That&apos;s why it looks much simpler for guys with muscles built all over and why their lifting doesn&apos;t look hard because they&apos;re keeping these principals in mind for yoked ripped guys. <br> <br>Separately on other occasions try the same thing with one handed pullups or one handed chinups and work on those. When doing either focus on the type of lifting I mentioned above. You can get your one handed chinups as good as you can if you&apos;re better at them doing that for awhile, then work on your one handed pullups separately if those need more work and get those as good as you can. <br> <br>At first it&apos;s easier to develop that area with one handed chinups before you do one handed pullups. Then when you get as far as you can with those try regular pullups again in the same fashion I said and see how much you improve at them. <br> <br>After this later with two handed pullups and two handed chinups you can go at a much slower controlled pace at 5 seconds up on pullups and then 5 seconds down on pullups for every rep and every set. Normally you go at a medium controlled pace in most periods. <br> <br>(You may want to focus on this part later but also you can hold on the bottom area of the pullup of the positive going up a little bit slower at the small part at the bottom and then you can hold on the top area of the pullup going up a little bit slower at the small part at the top on the positive of the pullup, and then you can hold on the top area of the pullup going down on the negative a little bit slower at the small part at the top and then you can hold on the bottom area of the pullup going down a little bit slower at the small part at the bottom on the negative of the pullup. You would do this every rep and every set. This is only for a period.) <br> <br>You can also eventually try this one handed. Same with above.
