Muscles Targeted:

• This exercise targets the back, biceps, rear delts, and core.

Form:

• Using a smith machine, get under the bar and grab it shoulder width or slightly wider.

• Engage your core and lift your hips off the ground so your body forms a straight line from your torso to your heels.

• Pull yourself up toward the bar and keep the scapula pinched back.

• Your chest does not need to touch the bar but the bar should be in line with your lower chest.

• Don’t let the elbows flare out, if you’re starting to look like a letter ‘T’ pull the elbows in until they make an ‘A’.

Rep Ranges:

• Body weight exercises are great at any rep range just make sure you maintain your form and keep each rep looking the same.
