Close Grip Chin-ups (Underhand)
Bodyweight Strength - This is typically the easiest version of chin-ups/pull-ups so it is most frequently the first one that is mastered by a person seeking to gain bodyweight strength. For that reason, it is a big milestone that marks a huge step on the road towards total bodyweight strength mastery. It separates the people who can do chin-ups from the people who cannot do chin-ups. Achieve this step and you have made a giant leap in the right direction...this is something to be proud of.
The technique for this exercise is exactly the same as the technique for Close Grip Overhand Pull-ups except that for this version you will be performing the chin-ups with an underhand grip (palms facing towards yourself) rather than an overhand grip (palms facing away from yourself).
