I have to say I am impressed with the customer service at Perfect Pullup. I strained my shoulder and my neck trying to use the ab straps. Did this on 3 different occasions. Yes – I am stubborn. So I contacted the people at Perfect Pullup and explained the situation and asked if they had any advice.

I was contacted by one of their reps who said she would ask the trainers. After the weekend, she got back to me and the guy who invented the unit said to have me take a video of myself using the ab straps and they would view it and see if I was doing anything wrong that might be causing the problem.

Now to me, that is seriously good service. I have not yet sent a video as I don’t want to hurt again , but probably will. I doubt it is my technique. More likely my body getting older. But we’ll see.

I really like the equipment they put out and would not hesitate to recommend it. The customer service is icing on the cake.

OK. This morning I did my perfect pullups and during my sets, I added a set of 21’s. Basically here is how it is done.

I did the Austrailian pullup. That’s where the bar is lowered and you lay under it and do chin ups. I started with 7 chin ups – going halfway up. Then immediate added 7 chin ups form the halfway positin to the top position. I followed that with 7 complete pull ups. Now with the Perfect Pullup, you can adjust your position under the bar. I had to do so in order to finish these completely as my arms were screaming for mercy.

You can do these 21’s with a lot of your strength training exercises. Try them.

I want to give you an honest review of the Perfect Pullup. I use it and love it but let me give you a total overview.

I have been using Perfect Pullup for 3 weeks now. I do the Australian pull ups for my routine and follow these with pull ups using the handles with the bar in the top position. In 3 weeks I have doubled the number of regular chin ups I can do. Getting back to what I could do way back when I was in the army. The Australian pull ups look easy on t.v. but are anything but. The premise being they will build your strength so you can do regular pull ups and they do that.
