Chin-ups (narrow parallel-grip)

Expert Advice

Focus on pulling with your back muscles rather than just your arms to engage the correct muscle groups effectively.

Grip the parallel bars with palms facing each other.
Hang with your arms fully extended.
Pull yourself up until your chin is level with the bars, while exhaling.
Lower yourself back down to the starting position with a controlled movement, while inhaling.
Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
