Neutral Grip Chins

The neutral grip chins are a great movement for building strength and power in the back and arms. Any movement that involves your whole body moving is always more functional and recruits more muscles than fixed machines. Key points when chinning, allow your body to stretch at the bottom and feel length in your spine. Keep your abs tight as you pull your chest towards the bar. For advanced trainers, reverse the breathing for maximum contraction. To intensify the exercise, add a weight belt.
