How to do weighted muscle up
- Start by hanging from a pull-up bar with your palms facing away from you and your hands slightly wider than shoulder-width apart.
- Engage your core and pull your body up towards the bar, leading with your chest.
- As you reach the top of the movement, transition your grip so that your palms are facing towards you.
- Continue pulling yourself up until your chest reaches the bar, then pause for a moment.
- Slowly lower yourself back down to the starting position, maintaining control throughout the movement.
- Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
