How To Do A Pullup?

Choose a pull-up bar at a reachable height

Start with full hang, arms straight, shoulders down and back

Grip the bar with palms facing away (or toward for chin-ups)

Engage your core and brace your body to prevent swinging

Pull your elbows down and back toward your sides

Continue pulling until your chin is above the bar

Keep your chest lifted and avoid shrugging

Lower yourself with control until your arms are straight again

Repeat for the desired number of reps

If needed, use a band-assisted pull-up or a chair-assisted pull-up

If needed, do negatives: jump up to the top position and lower slowly for several seconds

Rest between sets and stop if form breaks (swinging, shrugging, or losing control)
