How to do it
- Start by hanging from a pull-up bar with an overhand grip, hands slightly wider than shoulder-width apart.
- Engage your core and use a swinging motion to generate momentum.
- As you swing forward, pull your chest towards the bar, using your lats and biceps to initiate the movement.
- Continue the upward motion until your chest reaches the bar, then transition into a dip position by pushing down on the bar and extending your arms.
- Lower yourself back down to the starting position by bending your arms and controlling the descent.
- Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
