01 / Steps

How to do it

  1. This exercise focuses on isolating the biceps as much as possible, trying not to perform the shoulder extension that would involve more of the back.

  2. For this, position yourself in an Australian pull-up supine position with a false grip, placing the wrist above the bar.

  3. This will allow you to achieve a greater range of motion, bringing your head above the bar.

  4. Try this movement while keeping your elbows pointed to the sky.
