Start your journey to unlock the elusive bodyweight skill - the pull up! Using this program you can start working towards building the strength to perform both a pull up and chin up (see below for the difference between these two). Return to this program as much as you would like as you master your bodyweight on the bar. In this program we will work on both chin ups and pull ups. A chin up is performed with a supinated grip (fingers wrap under the bar towards you) and while using many of the same muscle groups, putting the bicep in a more favourable position in comparison to a pull up. Due to being a regularly used and larger muscle it often feels more natural and slightly easier to train. For this reason many people find chin ups easier to learn as compared to pull ups which require a pronated grip (fingers over the bar away from you) which recruits the triceps and upper back muscles slightly more. The key concept I want to stress for this program is that these things take a time... sometimes a long time and that is expected and ok! Please don't discredit small incremental progress as this is what we expect to see and keep chipping away at it! Record your progress on video so you can reflect back and see these changes... You got this! PS. There is some equipment required for this workout which can be found below!
