@madscientistofmuscle: Ab Barbell Weighted Chin-Ups - this is a great way to get more abdominal involvement when doing weighted chin-ups. I've got the rails set in the power rack so that I can hold the bar in the crease of the hips then do chins. EMG studies show that chin-ups activate the six pack abs (rectus abdominus) very effectively... adding direct loading like this makes the effect even stronger. You won't be able to come all the way down to full stretch at the shoulders unless you want to set the bar down on each rep. I've got 65 lbs here (bar plus a couple of 10 lb bumpers). And you'll need a rack that has a chin-up bar on it (or a spotter to place the bar for you). #madscientistofmuscle #weightedchinups #weightedchins #bodyweightexercise #bodyweightworkout
