Crossover Chinup
Crossover Chinup is a great alternative to traditional chinup that targets the muscles in your arms, specifically the brachialis and biceps brachii, your elbow flexor muscles. Crossover chin-ups also improve your grip strength.
Instructions
- Grasp the bar with your palms facing your body and shoulder-width apart. Let your arms hang in a fully extended position.
- Keeping your shoulders down and away from your ears, pull yourself up and forward until your chest touches one arm. Pause and then slowly lower yourself back to the starting position.
Tips
- Keep your chest up and shoulders back.
- Pull your elbows back so as not to stretch your wrists.
