What's inside the PDF

A small, structured guide you can actually finish. No fluff, no 30-page lecture.

Section

Baseline check (Day 0)

A short self-test to measure dead hangs, scapular reps, negatives, and rows before you start.

  • Dead hang timer
  • Scapular pull-up reps
  • Negative pull-up control
  • Row strength snapshot
Section

3-Day starter plan

Three repeatable sessions that mix strength, technique, and control without destroying your recovery.

  • Day 1: Control & scapula
  • Day 2: Strength & grip
  • Day 3: Technique & pattern
Section

Pull-up roadmap

A simple 3-phase roadmap so you know when to push, when to repeat, and when to attempt your first pull-up.

  • Control → Strength → First pull-up
  • Clear unlock targets
  • Habit checklist
  • Weekly routine suggestion

Who this guide is for

This PDF is made for people who are tired of random workouts and just want a calm, clear starting point.

  • You're new to calisthenics and don't know where to start.
  • You want your first pull-up eventually, but right now even hanging on the bar feels hard.
  • You prefer a short PDF you can repeat, not a 200-exercise encyclopedia.

How to use this PDF

Think of it like a mini passport: you repeat stamps until you're ready to move to the next phase.

Step 1

Print it or save it on your phone

Keep it somewhere you can see it before each session. Highlight or check off what you complete.

Step 2

Run the 3 sessions each week

Aim for 3 sessions per week. Repeat the same 3 days for at least 2–4 weeks.

Step 3

Retest and move along the roadmap

Use the roadmap targets to know when to progress your exercises or attempt your first real pull-up.
