How to: Neutral grip chin-up

Primary Muscles Used:Back, Biceps, Lats

Exercise Families:Vertical Pull

Equipment:Assisted Chin/Dip

Trainer:Chontel Duncan

  1. Standing on the foot rests of the assisted chin/dip machine, hold onto the chin-up bar with a neutral grip (palms facing inwards), hands shoulder-width apart. Step your feet off the foot rests one leg at a time, and extend your arms so that you are hanging from the chin-up bar. This is your starting position.
  2. Inhale. Exhale. Using the muscles in your arms and back, bend your elbows and pull your body upwards to bring your chin up and over the chin-up bar. Avoid ‘shrugging’ your shoulders by drawing your shoulder blades down and back.
  3. Inhale. Extend your elbows and lower your body to return to the starting position. Repeat for the specified number of repetitions. Note: This exercise can be performed on any neutral grip chin-up bar if an assisted chin/dip machine is not available.
