Palms facing towards yourself = Chinups (what you have to do on RSC)
Palms facing away = Pullups (harder, for me anyway, and what you have to do on PRMC)
Why does the Army use chinups (heaves) anyway? Wouldn't the pullup action more closely resemble actions that you'd use in a combat environment, clinbing over walls etc?
