There is rarely a week at Synergy Athletics were we don’t do some sort of chin up or variation. Chin ups are great for building upper back muscle – and a good measurement of relative body strength (strength relative to your body weight).
After our athletes get over 10 quality reps, I will start programming in different variations to change the exercise stimulus. Stutter chin ups are a great tool in your relative body strength toolbox.
How To Do Stutter Chin Ups
Step 1: Retract your shoulders and pull half way up
Step 2: Pause for 2-3 seconds
Step 3: Pull to the top
Step 4: Pause for 2-3 seconds
Step 5: Repeat on the way back down.
Note: Start with 3 reps and work your way up from there!
