How To Do Horizontal Pullup/ Inverted RowS

The horizontal pull-up is one of the best bodyweight exercises to strengthen the muscles in the upper back as well as the biceps.

– Can be easily scaled to provide a challenge to athletes of different level – It is difficult to cheat on this exercise, helping to ensure that you maintain good technique

BENEFITS OF THE HORIZONTAL PULL-UP/ INVERTED PULL-UP

– Lats – Core – Biceps – Mid Trapezius – Rhomboids and Upper Back – Forearm Muscles/ Grip Strength

MUSCLES WORKED DURING THE HORIZONTAL PULL-UP

– Set a fixed barbell to a height that is roughly equivalent to your waist (I like to set the smith machine barbell to waist height)

PERFORMING THE HORIZONTAL PULL-UP WITH PROPER TECHNIQUE

– The higher you place the bar, the easier the movement gets as you can be more vertical (which removes the weight of your lower body from the lift).
