STRUGGLING TO GET YOUR FIRST PULL-UP? 👇

Here are 3 proven progressions to build serious back strength and finally get your chin over the bar! 💪

In his latest demonstration, Finn breaks down how to scale the movement for your current fitness level.

🤯 THE PROBLEM: Skipping Straight to Strict Pull-Ups

Jumping right into unassisted pull-ups often leads to swinging, poor form, and major frustration. If you can’t control your body weight yet, you need to build the foundational lat and core strength first!

✅ PROGRESSION 1: Ring Rows
The ultimate starting point! Ring rows help you master the pulling motion while building your lats, rhomboids, and grip. The best part? You can easily adjust the difficulty just by moving your feet closer to the anchor point.

✅ PROGRESSION 2: Assisted Pull-Up Machine
Ready for the vertical pull? The assisted pull-up machine is perfect for getting the exact feel of a strict pull-up with smooth, measurable assistance. It takes the guesswork out and lets you focus completely on contracting your back muscles.

✅ PROGRESSION 3: Banded Pull-Ups (Rig & J-Hooks)
The final stepping stone! By stringing a heavy resistance band straight across two J-hooks in the squat rig, you get a powerful springboard effect at the bottom of the movement (the hardest part!). Because you aren’t locked into a machine, this forces you to engage your core and stabilize your body exactly like a free-hanging pull-up.

🔥 WATCH THE VIDEO to see Finn demonstrate the correct setup and form for all three variations so you can start mastering your pull-ups today!

❌ STOP DOING DUMBBELL TRICEP KICKBACKS! ❌

Here’s why, and what you should be doing instead for bigger, stronger triceps! 💪
In his latest demonstration, Finn breaks down the common mistakes and helps you optimize your tricep training.

🤯 THE PROBLEM: Dumbbell Kickbacks

While they seem popular, dumbbell tricep kickbacks often lead to momentum taking over, reducing the actual work your triceps do. Gravity only provides resistance when your arm is parallel to the ground, meaning you lose tension at the most crucial parts of the movement.

✅ THE SOLUTION: Single Arm Cable Tricep Pushdowns

Using the cable machine ensures constant tension on the tricep through the entire range of motion. You get a better stretch and a harder contraction without relying on momentum.

🔥 WATCH THE VIDEO to see Finn demonstrate the correct form for single arm cable pushdowns and explain the science behind why they are superior for tricep growth!

Stop Butchering Your Lat Pulldowns! 🛑🦅

Let’s be real—if you’re doing lat pulldowns like the first video, you’re leaving serious back gains on the table (and probably making your shoulders hate you).
Our PT Manager, Sal, is here to break down the absolute most common mistake we see on the gym floor every single day at Snap Leichhardt.

❌ Video 1: The “Ego Pull”

Notice how the bar comes way too low, the shoulders roll completely forward, and the bar drags down past the chest? The problem: The second your shoulders roll forward, your lats check out. You completely lose the tension where it matters and dump all that nasty stress straight into your rotator cuffs and front delts.

✅ Video 2: The Perfect Pull

Chest flared out and proud, pulling the bar right to the top of the chest (around the collarbone). But here is the real secret sauce: on the way back up, let your head come through your shoulders, almost like you’re mimicking the bottom of a pull-up.

Why does this matter? Keeping your chest up and shoulders back ensures your lats are doing the heavy lifting. Pushing your head through on the eccentric (the way up) gives your lats a massive, deep stretch at the top. A bigger stretch equals better range of motion, which equals a wider, stronger back.

Stop just moving weight from point A to point B, and start actually feeling the right muscles work! 💪

Not sure if your form is dialled in? Or just want to take your training to the next level? Let’s get it sorted.

I’m just going to say it: Your StairMaster donkey kickbacks are doing absolutely nothing for your glutes. 🫢

Cue the angry typing. But before you come for us in the comments, take a good look at Finn in this clip. He looks like a confused, caffeinated show pony trying to kick a ghost. 🐴

We see this “hack” everywhere, and as your local fitness experts, we are staging an intervention. Here is the harsh, educational truth about why you need to step off the cardio equipment and get under a barbell:

❌ Why the StairMaster Kickback is a Scam:
Physics says no: Gravity pulls down. Kicking your leg backward into thin air provides exactly zero mechanical tension on your glutes.
RIP your lower back: You aren’t achieving a deep, targeted glute contraction; you’re just using momentum and violently hyperextending your lumbar spine.
Zero progressive overload: You can’t add weight to the air. If you aren’t progressively lifting heavier resistance over time, your muscles have zero reason to grow.

🍑 Why Barbell Back Squats are the Real Deal:
Actual resistance: You are pushing heavy weight directly against gravity, forcing the muscle to work.
Full range of motion: Deep stretches at the bottom of a squat equal massive muscle growth.
Proven science: Squats are a foundational compound lift that forces your entire lower body to adapt, strengthen, and build serious mass.
Stop letting trendy fitness influencers make you look silly for zero gains. It’s time to put the gimmicks away and train like you actually want results.

Ready to learn how to properly lift?
Stop kicking the air and book a session with our PT Manager, Salvatore! He’ll get you started on a fitness journey that is safe, educational, and actually yields results here at Leichhardt Snap Fitness. Hit the link in our bio or chat with us at the front desk to lock in your spot! 🏋️‍♀️✨

🚨 Is your workout routine putting you to sleep? 🥱🚨

Let’s be real—doing the exact same sets and reps week after week can get a little stale. If you’re feeling bored on the gym floor, losing your motivation, and itching to learn a brand-new skill, it’s time to shake things up!
Have you ever considered Olympic Lifting? 🏋️‍♂️✨

We know what you might be thinking: “That looks way too intense for me!” But here is the secret—you don’t start with heavy weights. Olympic lifting is actually a super fun, deeply rewarding skill to learn, and absolutely everyone starts with just a simple PVC pipe or an empty bar. It’s all about mastering the mechanics, building coordination, and gaining confidence one step at a time.

Why you’ll love it:
Mental Challenge: It keeps your brain engaged while you train 🧠
New Milestones: Swap boring routines for exciting new personal bests 📈
Total Support: Zero pressure, just step-by-step progression 🤝

Ready to challenge your body in a completely new way? Book a relaxed, no-intimidation consult with our PT Manager, Salvatore. He will break down the absolute basics at your own pace, ensuring you feel safe, comfortable, and confident before you ever add weight.
