Chinups too difficult?

Yup chin-ups are difficult… Imagine if you weigh 60 kg… pulling yourself up (60kg) is DIFFICULT. But think also, it’s a way to build strength and size (if you’re interested)…

Small wonder that chin-ups and push-ups are a favourite test in the army. Of course modern fitness centres have adopted these exercises into bootcamp n circuit training.

What if you can’t do even one chin-up? You can try doing partial repetitions standing tip-toe (safer than squatting on a chair). Click here to see fitness trainer Scott Tousignant do a modified chin-up.

BEFORE using, ALWAYS check that the chin-up bar is SITTING properly on the architrave (top of the door frame)…

Oh yeah… the chin-up bar used in the video is called ‘Iron Gym’ - good, but you need a *thick* architrave (top of the door frame)… Hence, my decision to bring in chin-up bars that have a higher chance of fitting on Malaysian door frames.
