You should hold your position on your last rep. Makes a world of a difference.

You can do all sorts of different grips which will work different areas. What he was just doing will focus more on Triceps and Biceps. The wider he goes the more it will focus on lats and chest. (shoulder width and beyond)

I hear you pal, this is useful great tips. Thanks.

go here and read this link from a guy with over 25 years training experiene, he got this information from Rippetoe. I copied and pasted it for reference in my last post. If you hang fully you place a full sheer on the elbows.

i didnt mean the elbows. his arms are to close to each other. they need to spread out
-
Well you SHOULD keep a slight bend in the Elbows.Don't sweat this. Start from a full hang, so that your shoulder blades are stretched, but do NOT straighten your arms, keep them bent slightly in the low position. Also, maintain some tension in your upper back so that in the low position, you aren't "dead hanging", which can put a lot of stress on your tendons and shoulder girdle. i.e. keep your shoulder girdle tight and your elbows bent slightly, but allow your scapulae to stretch downward.

bud the arms need to be extended

wow the bar is pretty low

What's the big deal? Bodyweight chins aren't that difficult if you're in shape. Add a 45lb plate and post that.
your clearly jumping from the ground... ()_()
