pull up vs chin up
- Thread starter aseay

Laura,
Pull-ups are done with your palms facing away from you on the bar, and chin-ups are done with your palms facing you. You get to use a little bicep with chin-ups. In P90X, he tells and shows which ones to do.
My body sways forward a bit as well, and I have a real tall bar. Don't know if this is real normal, but watching the folks on P90X, I think it is ok. They all seem to do it, too.

thanks for explaining it to me. i do watch and listen to him in the video but i can understand it better when its wrote down. my pullup bar faces away from the tv so i can't always watch him. have you had the p90x drink? i make a smoothy with protein powder.sometimes i dont have fruit to mix in so have you ever made a protein drink without fruit?

Nope, I have not tried the drink. It is too many calories for me to just drink. I do make a protein smoothie with 1/2 a banana after each weight workout. Seems to help.
Yes, I can't really see the tv either while I do the bar stuff. I had to sit and just watch each one of those exercises because they were all new to me. If you have the book, I found it really helps to read through all the stuff that was new to me. I like to see it in print, too. Just seems to make it clearer.
