Max-OT Tip:
When doing Pull-ups or Pull-downs use a grip that’s 4 to 6 inches wider than shoulder width. Do not take a grip wider than this as it places too much stress on the shoulder joint and lessens the overload to the upper back muscles. Never grip a bar that is angled on the ends past the bend. This is an improper design and should never be used.
