Underhand chin-up

A palms-in grip brings the elbows in front of your ribs. Keep that path as you pull so both arms share the work.

Technique

  1. Hold the bar about shoulder width with palms facing you. Let the feet hang quietly.
  2. Drive both elbows down as the chest rises. Lower smoothly until the elbows straighten.

Common mistakes

  • Twisting towards the stronger hand shifts the load. Keep the middle of your chest between the hands.
