Weighted Chin-Ups are a strength-building exercise targeting the upper back and biceps by using added weight to increase resistance. This enhances upper body muscle growth and improves grip strength.

How to do it

  2. Grip the pull-up bar with palms facing you, shoulder-width apart.
  3. Engage core and pull your body upward until your chin is above the bar.
  4. Lower yourself in a controlled manner back to the starting position.
  5. Repeat for the desired number of reps.
