Rocky Pull-up Pulldown

Expert Advice

Focus on a full range of motion and control the eccentric (lowering) phase to increase muscle activation.

How-to-do Steps

  1. Stand under a pull-up bar and grab it with a wide grip, palms facing forward.
  2. Perform a pull-up by pulling your body up until your chin clears the bar.
  3. Once at the top, slowly lower yourself back down with control.
  4. Without touching the ground, immediately transition into a pulldown by bending your knees and pulling the bar down to your thighs.
  5. Extend your arms back up and repeat the sequence for the desired number of repetitions.
