These are really, really good for improving chin-up/pull-up strength.

Just jump up and lower yourself down slowly.

You may not feel much whilst doing them but the next day and possibly the next day and the next you'll feel'em.

Tips -

(1)So you are using your back rather than your biceps don't grip with your thumbs.

(2) To make these really, really effective turn your elbows in as you lower yourself.

(3) Add a few of these to the end of your normal set of pull-ups to really blast ya back.

*Chin-Ups = When your plams face towards you like in the video.

*Pull-Ups = When your palms face away from you.

*NB* Please consult a doctor before starting any new exercise programme.

  • no harm meant!!!!!!although not you tube status!!!but keep it up kid!!!!

  • Absolutely no offence taken!

    Ain't youtube for all? Starters, beginners, journeymen, professionals, experts, freaks etc?

    The basics are a good place for any "kid" to start?

  • wow....thats garbage

  • Nirose9 some people have got to start somewhere!? Negatives or Thunderbirds are a pretty decent starting point - don't you reckon? Certainly helped me so thought I'd post it for non-bar experts not like yourself!

    V.impressive pulls and muscle ups you've posted!

  • any tips for a good set of wings?

  • Concentrate on pull-ups and chins! Vary your grips as well!

  • Great exercise for beginners who can't do full pull ups and want to increase their strength and also for advance people to overload at the end of their normal set. The egotistical negative comments left on this page are left from sad people who don't realise that the eccentric phase of an exercise is actually when you are building muslce anyway so they should be included in your workout.

  • how to work abs?

  • so gay

  • i allways try to do pullups coz i hear it's great with detailing the back, and right now im tryna add detail, but i cant do them, i get like 8 reps and im fucked, with just my bodyweight!

    it's shit.

  • thats impressive . i bet you could do alot of pullups! great job

  • interesting variation, great for some of the bigger guys who have trouble doing pullups.

  • those r called negative chin ups lol they do work the lats depending on ur form/ how u r doing em, but certainly not the back..

  • Good video; I think even an advanced person could do well with these, perhaps adding weights or lenghtening the descent time, such that they clhallenge their muscles.

  • it's a great exercise if you cant do many series of pull-ups. respect
