V-Bar Pullup

Back · Bodyweight

How to do it

Neutral grip on parallel handles, palms facing each other. Pull bringing your chest to your hands and the elbows down. It is the friendliest version for shoulders and elbows, and the one most people can do through a full range. You feel lats and brachialis. If overhand pull-ups bother your shoulder, start here.

Variants

The drawing shows one way of doing it, and the technique above describes that one. Almost every exercise has variants — standing or seated, the grip, the bench angle — and is still the same exercise: if you do it another way, write it in the exercise note and you will have it every time you train it.
