Double Pause Chin Up Video Exercise Guide

The double pause chin up is a chin up variation that utilizes an intensity technique known as the pause rep.

By pausing mid rep, as done in the double pause chin up, you create an isometric contraction on the muscle. This requires more strength to complete each repetition as you will come to a complete dead stop during the rep.

The added time under tension from performing double pause chin ups can result in better muscle development than traditional chin up reps.
