Fitness Friday: Eccentric Pull Up


June 2, 2015

Happy Fitness Friday! This week we’re working on “Eccentric Pull Ups.”

When performing this exercise, focus on lowering your body from the top of the pull up in a slow controlled manner for 3-5 seconds. Preform 3-4 sets of 5-10 repetitions depending on experience.

If you are having trouble making the jump to pull yourself up, you can use a chair or bench for assistance.
