Sentences with phrase «supinated pull»

They reported that latissimus dorsi muscle activity was greater during the pronated lat pull - down compared with the supinated pull - down.

Lehman et al. (2004) reported that loads equalling 10 to 12RM during pronated and supinated pull - downs produced similar biceps muscle activity.

Therefore, the data appears to indicate that medium and narrow grip pronated and supinated pull - downs produce similar muscle activity in the biceps, while the chin - up appears to produce superior muscle activity to the pull - up.

Middle trapezius muscle activity seems to be superior during traditional pronated pull ups performed with or without a suspension device, while lower trapezius muscle activity appears to be superior during pronated compared with supinated pull ups.

Not exact matches

Mixed grip pull ups Using a shoulder - width grip, place one hand in a pronated position and the other in a supinated position.

This variation activates the biceps more than any other pull - up because it uses a supinated (underhand) grip, and your elbows are kept closer to your body.

Those of you already able to do five or more reps of pull ups can test this for yourself: Perform a set of pull ups to failure and then immediately switch to a supinated grip and amazingly you'll be able to complete a couple more reps as you move from a mechanically disadvantageous position to a more advantageous one.

Hang from a pull up bar with a supinated grip, shoulder width apart.

They found that lower trapezius muscle activity was greater during the pronated pull - up compared with the supinated (56 % vs. 45 % of MVIC) condition.

When comparing the pull - down exercise performed with a supinated grip to the cable seated row, superior muscle activity was displayed during the seated row (21 ± 11 vs. 30 ± 12 %).

However, the pronated pull - up generally requires more effort than the supinated chin - up and therefore the difference in lower trapezius muscle activity may not exist when equal relative loads are utilised.

Pull ups require the overhand (pronated) grip on the monkey bar while chin ups need an underhand (supinated) grip.

The subjects performed four variations of the lat pull - down with 70 % relative load including the wide pronated, shoulder width supinated, neutral grip and narrow supinated.

They report the long head of the triceps displayed lower muscle activity in the wide grip pull - down to the back of the neck, while variations such as the close - grip and supinated grip (where the humerus produced shoulder extension) displayed greater muscle activity in the long head of the triceps.

Signorile et al. (2002) also compared the wide grip pronated lat pull - down and reported significantly greater latissimus dorsi muscle activity than both the neutral and supinated conditions.

In contrast, Lehman et al. (2004) compared the lat pull - down performed with either a wide (150 % biacromial width) pronated grip or a supinated medium (100 % biacromial width) grip width during isometric contractions with the bar positioned at approximately eye level.

Comparing the effect of forearm orientation, Youdas et al. (2010) compared the pronated grip pull - up and supinated grip chin - up.

They report that the pronated grip pull up produced comparable (120 % vs. 117 % of maximum voluntary isometric contraction (MVIC) levels) latissimus dorsi muscle activity compared with the supinated chin - up exercise.

Overall, therefore, the research appears to indicate that performing the lat pull - down with a pronated grip produces greater latissimus dorsi activity than narrow, supinated and neutral grip conditions.

Lusk et al. (2010) compared the lat pull - down performed with a pronated and supinated hand - grip on latissimus dorsi muscle activity.
