The post How to Work Up to Doing Your First Pull-Up appeared first on yourdailysportfix.com.
]]>If you belong to a gym, you probably have access to something called an assisted pull-up machine which works by using weight to counterbalance your body weight and essentially make you lighter so that it’s easier to pull yourself up. This is a great way to work up to doing a pull-up because you’ll be training the right body mechanics but with a lighter load, and you can increasingly make it harder and harder until you can eventually do one with no assistance at all.
If you don’t have access to any gyms or equipment, negatives will be your best bet for training pull-ups. Basically, you jump or climb up to be hanging with your chin above the bar and slowly let yourself down to a free hang.
