How Can I Do More Chin-Ups?

Comments (0)

When performing a chin-up all you will need is your own bodyweight and a bar. If it's your very first time doing chin-ups it can be almost impossible to execute them correctly. If you are in the situation where your bodyweight is too heavy for you to pull yourself up, then I suggest that you start by jumping up and slowly lower your body, repeat that as many times as possible. When you've done that a few days or how ever long time it takes for you to feel comfortable and strong enough to perform proper chin-ups. Just simply start doing them. In the beginning you probably won't be able to do more than 2-3, but that's okay it's a process every one goes through.

The important thing is that you are consistent and don't just do them once every now and then. You don't even have to go to the gym to do chin-ups, you can get your very own chin-up bar that you can put in a door post. If you got one at home it makes it much easier. This is a thing that I do myself: Every time a pass through the door where I got my chin bar I do 1 set of as many reps as possible. It might sound silly but it really works. When I started I could only do about 3 reps, and now few months later I can easily do 12-15.

If you want a wider back then the wide grip chin-up is a great exercise to do. It's a lot harder then the close grip chin-ups, but you can start in the exact same way as you did with the close grip ones. Jump up and slowly lower your body.

This is what should go on in your head when doing chin-ups: When you are too tired to do one more DO two more. Because when you feel like you can't do another one, most of the time your body can actually do a few more but your mind don't. If you can overcome that then you will see results very fast.
