After I did 8 sets of 8 last week on regular chins my shoulders needed a break this week. Dead stop chins give my joints that break while still doing chins. I do these on the chin bar in my rack in the basement. Essentially it’s a pull up from a dead start with your feet on the ground. When I reach up and grab the bar my arms are locked with my feet on the ground. I do each pull up from this start. It’s easier on the ground but I can hold the rep at the top for a good squeeze and then do a slow negative. These are great for my shoulders as they take the stress off them in the bottom position. Greta exercise with a meet close. A big pump with minimum wear and tear.

Good basement workout today. My kid turns 4 tomorrow so I can’t hit the regular gym. I love training in the basement with the litter box and the laundry machines going. Its reminds me of being 11 all over again crushing weights to the BLACK Album.
