In this wall bars training session, you will learn how to start with pull-ups, dips, and the candle exercise. The focus is on slow, controlled movements, proper form, and building strength step by step. Take your time, listen to your body, and rest as needed between exercises. This session gives you enough time to practice each skill with focus and care. Begin when you are ready. --- We begin with exercises that prepare your body for pull-ups, targeting grip strength, shoulder stability, and the initial pulling motion. Stand facing the wall bars. Grip a comfortable rung with both hands, palms facing away from you, hands just wider than shoulder-width. To start, hang with your arms extended, but keep your feet touching the ground or a low rung for support. Focus on engaging your shoulder blades by gently pulling them down and back. This is called a passive hang. It helps activate the right muscles for pull-ups. Hold this passive hang as steady as you can. [Pause 8s] Let go and rest for a few seconds. Shake out your arms if needed. [Pause 5s] Repeat the passive hang. Focus on keeping your shoulders away from your ears and your grip firm. [Pause 8s] Rest briefly, roll your shoulders if you wish, and get ready for the last passive hang. [Pause 5s] One last passive hang. Even if it feels challenging, just keep your body as relaxed as possible while maintaining the grip. [Pause 8s] Now move to an active hang. From the same position, grip the bar and gently pull your shoulder blades down and together, slightly lifting your chest up toward the bar. Do not bend your elbows. Hold this active hang for five seconds. [Pause 3s] Release and let your arms relax for a few moments. [Pause 5s] Try the active hang again. Focus on your shoulder stability and keep your neck long. [Pause 8s] Rest and prepare for your final active hang. [Pause 5s] Last active hang now. Imagine drawing your shoulders away from your ears and squeezing your upper back. [Pause 8s] If you feel ready, try an assisted pull-up: with your feet on the ground or a low rung, bend your knees, and use your legs to help you pull your chin up toward the bar. Focus on using your arms and back as much as possible, with just a little help from your legs. Pull up slowly, pause at the top, and lower yourself with control. [Pause 10s] Rest for a few seconds. Take your time between each repetition. [Pause 12s] Repeat the assisted pull-up four more times, moving in a controlled manner and focusing on technique rather than speed. [Pause 10s] Remember, quality is more important than quantity. Focus on your form and take breaks if you need them. [Pause 10s] --- Before starting dips, please modify your wall bars. Attach parallel handles or use two sturdy rungs at a comfortable height. Make sure they are secure and can support your weight. Take about twelve seconds to prepare your setup. [Pause 12s] Stand facing away from the wall bars. Grip the handles or rungs firmly with both hands, arms straight. Step your feet forward so your body is slightly inclined. Start with support holds: press down through your hands to lift your body, keeping your arms straight and shoulders away from your ears. Hold this position and notice the work in your shoulders and triceps. [Pause 6s] Lower yourself gently and rest for a few seconds. Shake out your hands if needed. [Pause 6s] Repeat the support hold. Try to keep your whole body strong and stable, with your arms fully extended. [Pause 8s] Rest again, and get ready for your final support hold. [Pause 6s] Last support hold. Feel how your shoulders and arms work together to keep you steady. [Pause 8s] Now try a small dip. From the support position, bend your elbows just a little to lower your body a few centimeters, then press back up. Only go as low as you feel comfortable, keeping your shoulders stable and elbows close to your sides. Führe fünf langsame, kontrollierte Wiederholungen aus und mache nach jeder eine kurze Pause. [Pause 12s] If this feels too difficult today, continue with the support holds instead. Strength will build over time. [Pause 10s] Add one more dip exercise: after your small dips, try a partial dip with a slightly deeper bend in the elbows, lowering your body about halfway down. Keep your core engaged and shoulders stable. Perform three slow, controlled repetitions. [Pause 15s] Rest briefly. [Pause 8s] Try one final dip: bend your elbows fully to lower your body as far as comfortable, then push back up. Focus on smooth, controlled movement. Perform two repetitions. [Pause 12s] Rest and shake out your arms. [Pause 10s] --- Lie down on your back with your head close to the wall bars. Reach overhead and grip a low rung with both hands. Your arms should be straight and shoulders gently pulled down. Bring your legs together and extend them fully, keeping your toes pointed up. Engage your core by gently pressing your lower back into the floor. Now, slowly lift both legs up toward the ceiling, keeping them straight. Raise them as high as you comfortably can, without letting your lower back arch off the ground. [Pause 10s] Lower your legs back down with control, stopping just before your heels touch the floor. Keep your movements slow and steady. [Pause 8s] Repeat this motion. Focus on using your core muscles to lift and lower your legs, not momentum. [Pause 10s] If you feel your lower back lifting off the floor, do not lower your legs as far down. Only go as low as you can while keeping your back pressed to the ground. [Pause 8s] One more repetition. Lift your legs up, hold briefly at the top, then lower them back down slowly. [Pause 10s] Release the bar, bend your knees, and relax for a few seconds. --- Great job completing this beginner wall bars session. Remember, progress comes with consistency and patience. Focus on proper technique and give your body time to adapt. For pull-ups and dips, it is completely normal to start with partial movements and gradually build strength. The candle exercise helps develop your core, supporting all your upper body exercises. Make sure to rest between sessions, and always listen to your body. Come back regularly to see steady improvement.
