Side-To-Side Chin
The side-to-side chin is a bodyweight exercise targeting the lats, performed by pulling yourself up to a bar and shifting your chin from one side to the other at the top of the movement. This variation increases the challenge to the lats and requires greater strength and control than a standard chin-up.
Step-by-Step Form & Technique
- 1.Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart and your knees slightly bent.
- 2.Grasp a pull-up bar with an overhand grip, hands slightly wider than shoulder-width apart.
- 3.Hang from the bar with your arms fully extended and your body relaxed.
- 4.Pull yourself up by bending your elbows and bringing your chin towards the bar, while keeping your body straight.
- 5.Once your chin is above the bar, lower yourself back down to the starting position.
- 6.Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
