How to do it
- Stand underneath a pull-up bar, reach up, and grab it with an even, overhand grip (palms facing forward). Your hands should be shoulder-width apart or slightly wider.
- Bring your shoulders back, engage your abs, and squeeze your glutes.
- Take a breath and pull yourself up. Bring your shoulder blades as far back as your strength and mobility allow as you go up.
- Keep your midsection engaged and lean your torso back.
- Pull yourself up until your lower chest reaches the bar and hold the top position for a moment.
- Lower yourself with control and exhale on the way down.
- Take another breath and repeat.
