I'm not able to do a chin-up yet let alone a pullup. So I've been doing negative chin-ups as part of my workouts.
The problem is, my back hasn't been sore yet from doing them. I don't think my back has been worked at all. It's all my biceps and arms right now. I've been trying to concentrate on my back while lowering myself but can't seem to get those muscles to work.
Now I know that chin-ups aren't going to work your lats as much as pullups, but I've read that you should start with chin-ups since they are easier to do and then work your way up to pullups. Is that true?
Should I incorporate both chin-ups AND pullups into my routine?
