How to perform it
Adjust the machine to your desired weight and height. Place your hands on the parallel bars with a close grip, palms facing each other. Hang from the bars with your arms fully extended and your feet off the ground. Engage your back muscles and pull your body up towards the bars, keeping your elbows close to your body. Continue pulling until your chin is above the bars. Pause for a moment at the top, then slowly lower your body back down to the starting position. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
