Exercise Description: Curl Grip Pull Ups

Specs: Muscles Worked: The primary muscles worked during pull-ups are the Lats (Latissimus). Secondarily are the Forearms, Biceps, and Shoulders.

Instructions: 1) Position hands approximately shoulder width apart with a reverse grip (palms facing you). 2) Start position: Hang with arms fully extended and elbows facing away from body. Feet may be crossed with knees bent. 3) Pull body up until bar is below chin level. 4) Return to start position. 5) Remember to keep the movement controlled with the body stable to minimize momentum and body sway. If the bar is too high, it is advisable to use a step to ensure proper hand placement as well as safety.
