Neutral-Grip Chin-up

Starting position

• Grab the parallel handles, palms facing each other.
• Hang freely, shoulders actively pulled down.

Execution

• Pull up until the chin is over the handles, elbows close to the body.
• Lower under control until the arms are straight.
• Easier: with a band or an assisted pull-up machine.

Common mistakes

• Swinging the legs for momentum.
• Pulling only halfway up.
• Not straightening fully at the bottom.
