Weighted Chin Ups

Chin ups are an absolute must for building pulling strength and power and for the development of the back.

It is important to progressively add weight to ensure that you are providing sufficient resistance to your muscles. You will want to use a weight that will allow you no more than 7-10 reps per set.

As for grip I prefer to vary the width of the grip so that all sections of your back muscles will be trained. I also prefer to have my palms face me. This is so that the biceps are stimulated as well.

Give it a try and let me know how it works out.
