Chin Up/Pull Up

Chin Up/Pull Up Pull Ups and Chin Ups are both very difficult exercises that can help build a strong back without any weight. Doing even 1 of these can be difficult for people who are not experienced lifters.
Description Chin Up Version:

  1. Grab the bar with palms away from you and arms about shoulder width apart.
  2. Start with arms straight, and leading with your chest, rip yourself upward.
  3. Slowly lower yourself down until arms are straight once again.

Pull Up Version:

  1. Same as the Chin Up version, except palms are facing towards you. This involves your biceps more into the lift.
Things to Keep in Mind
  • Keep your eye on the prize! Look at the bar your pulling yourself towards.
  • Control your breathing. Take breathe in just before you go up and exhale on the way down.
