#3 Pull-Up

The pull-ups work on activating the biceps, lats, traps, obliques and the spine.

Instructions:

Step 1: Stand straight and grab a pull-up bar attachment. You could use a portable pull-bar to set-up pull-ups and add an extra dimension to your home gym. Grab the bar with a shoulder-width grip with the palms facing away from the body. The torso and legs should be straight and perpendicular to the ground.

Step 2: Pull yourself towards the ceiling until the chin is just above the pull-up bar.

Step 3: Hold for a second and return to the initial position. Do not let your feet touch the ground between the reps.

Repeat the exercise for the recommended number of times.

Important tips: Vary the grip to target different muscle groups. Ensure that the upper body is straight while performing the pulling motion.
