Conseils techniques
It's important to breathe properly while performing weighted chin-ups. Inhale as you lower your body and exhale as you pull yourself up. This will help maintain your energy levels and prevent you from getting winded too quickly.
A common mistake is to add too much weight too soon. Start with a weight you can manage for about 5-8 reps with good form. As your strength increases, gradually add more weight. Overloading can lead to poor form and increase the risk of injury.
