BACK

Chin Up

IntermediateBodyweight

The chin-up is a bodyweight pull that hammers the back while giving the biceps plenty of work. It's essentially a pull-up done with an underhand grip, which many people find a touch friendlier to start with. It's an excellent way to get comfortable on the bar and build real strength and muscle.

How to do it

  1. 1

    Grip the pull-up bar with your palms facing toward you.

  2. 2

    Brace your trunk by breathing into your belly and keeping your abs tight.

  3. 3

    Pull your chest up to the bar by driving your elbows down toward your ribs.

  4. 4

    When your chest reaches the bar, lower yourself under control to a full hang.

  5. 5

    Repeat for your target reps.
