WANNA GET BETTER AT CHIN-UPS ? HERE IS HOW!

Tip of the day:I love to do chin-ups! So for today, I am going to help you increase your ability to perform this exercise with perfect form. One challenge of mine is that most people doing chin-ups have the tendency to compensate for a weaker side or often have pain due to a shoulder injury. The key revolves around ''The Back Functional Line''. In other words, your left latissimus dorsi and right gluteus are connected and vice versa! Most of us rarely activate the line in question. So next time you workout your back just perform one of these three exercises and focus and the weak glute.

1-Supine Lateral Ball Roll:(notice the side that as a hard time stabilizing the movement)
2-Bent over Row with Dumbbells (Alternated)
3-Reverse Woodchops

As for increasing reps: You may perform more isolated movements to increase Bicep strength like Concentrated curls. Unilateral movements are the best to avoid compensation for the weaker arm.
