Parallel-Grip Chin-Up, Quarter Rep at Top
Update: 2019-09-26
Description
The 1.5 method is simple: Perform full reps of an exercise with partial reps between each. Although 1.5 means "one-and-a-half," quarter reps can also be used.
One benefit: This method can be used to address a technique flaw.
Pick the portion of an exercise you suck at, then spend more time there. Do you lose tension at the bottom of a squat? Then add an extra partial rep to work on it.
Do you compensate at the top of a chin-up by rounding your shoulders forward? Spend more time at the top and work on it. Stop avoiding it and address the problem head-on! – Gareth Sapstead
