Exercise Performance

Stand facing the chin-up bar, which should be anchored to the wall just a little higher than you can comfortably reach. Jump up and grasp the bar with an overhand grip, palms facing away from you, thumbs wrapped around the bar. Your hands should be spaced about six inches wider than your shoulders. This is your starting and ending position. Raise your torso as high as you can without bending your elbows

Variations

Wide grip	More traps less triceps
Narrow grip	More lats
