160 Ultimate Weight Loss Revealed by Brad Callen

Assisted Pull Up Machine

What to do :

This exercise is just like the assisted chin up accept you are doing a pull up instead . Adjust the weight on the side of the machine so that you are going to be lifting a weight you can manage . The assisted pull up machine is designed to make it possible for a person to do pull ups , chin ups , or dips without having to lift their entire body weight . The machine pushes up on your knees whatever weight you set the machine to . So , for instance , if you weight 160 lbs and you set the weight on the side for 40 lbs then you are only lifting 120 lbs . The more weight you set the machine to the easier ( i . e . lighter ) it will be . For this exercise grab onto the handles of the assisted pull up machine in a wide grip as shown . Kneel down on the knee support and put all of your weight on it . Lean forward so that your head is in front of your arms as if you were trying to pull an imaginary bar behind your head . Let your body go down with the knee support and pull yourself back up .

Muscles worked :
Upper & mid muscles , especially the lats . Also some deltoids & biceps

!

Don ’ t Forget to :
Lean forward . When you are finished with your set make sure that you step off the machine when the knee support is in its highest position . Otherwise youʼll see and hear the weights come crashing down with a loud thud
