Seated Chin-up
Expert Advice
Keep your elbows close to your body and focus on pulling with your back muscles rather than just your arms.
How-to-do Steps
- Sit on the ground under a low bar or rings set to about chest height.
- Grab the bar with an underhand grip, hands shoulder-width apart.
- Lean back slightly, keeping your feet flat on the ground in front of you.
- Pull your chest towards the bar by bending your elbows and squeezing your shoulder blades together.
- Slowly extend your arms to lower yourself back to the starting position.
- Repeat for the desired number of reps.
