STRENGTH WEEK: #7
Hi TXT community, How are you liking the new CHALLENGE?!
It’s not quite like running on a treadmill or jumping rope, but pullups will get your heart rate up and really kick your butt. If you want to boost the fat loss effects of pullups, decrease the time in-between sets or  super-set your pullups with another exercise.
Below you can find a list of pullups tips that should help you out in your quest to build a bigger upper body and do more pullups.

The average muscle activation was:
  • Latissimus dorsi: 117-130%
  • Biceps brachii: 78-96%
  • Infraspinatus: 71-79%
  • Lower trapezius: 45-56%
  • Pectoralis major: 44-57%
  • Erector spinae: 39-41%
  • External oblique: 31-35%
Lets work on those pullups and maximize our grip strength!!
Have a wonderful week!
Christa B
