Reverse Grip Pull Ups


It took me forever to be able to lift my own weight repetitively. Once I was able to conquer the pull up I began to try out different variations. This is a Reverse Grip Pull Up. Just like the Wide Grip Pull up, the Reverse is a compound exercise for the back. It mostly concentrates on your latissimus dorsi, but it also works out the forearms, biceps, rhomboid, teres major, infaspinatus pec, erector spinae, and external oblique. The pull up is also a way to determine your muscular endurance for the upper body.
