How to do it
The assisted supinated pull-up allows you to work the pulling movement with part of your body weight counterbalanced.
On the machine, adjust the counterbalance, place your knees on the platform and grip the handles with palms facing you, at shoulder-width.
Pull until your chin is above your hands, keeping your elbows close to your body, then lower yourself slowly until your arms are straight.
The heavier the counterbalance, the greater the assistance. Reduce it over the weeks.
