What you need

Steps

  1. Sit underneath a low straight bar with your legs out in front of you

  2. Grab the bar with a close chin up grip and the thumbs around it

  3. Pull with the elbows close to your body and do not flare them out, because that makes it hard to pull yourself up

  4. Pull until the chin is over the bar, then lower back down
