WIDE GRIP PULL UP

START: Grab onto a chin-up bar with an overhand grip and your hands spaced wider than shoulder-width apart. Hang from the bar with your arms fully exended and your chest high while exaggerating the arch in your lower back. MOVE: Pull yourself up by squeezing your shoulder blades together and contracting your lats, until your chin passes the bar. Hold the contraction at the top for a second before slowly lowering yourself back to the start. *Note: this exercise can be done with hands closer together on the bar. Tips If necessary have someone spot you by holding your feet or hips and help guide you up.
