Common questions
What can I do instead of the Gironda Sternum Chin?
The closest substitutes are the Cable Pulldown, Assisted Pull-Up and Barbell Pullover. Each trains the lats as its primary muscle, so sets and reps can stay the same as your Gironda Sternum Chin programming.
Which Gironda Sternum Chin alternative should I try first?
Start with the Cable Pulldown — it targets the lats with a cable machine and is the closest match in this list.
Can I just rotate these with the Gironda Sternum Chin?
Yes. Rotating two or three same-muscle movements every few weeks keeps progress moving without changing what the session trains — they all load the lats first.
