Pull-ups

November 19, 2008
You will need a bar for this one. Make sure the bar is well secured and can easily bear your weight.

Hang onto the bar with your palms facing you and pull yourself as high up as you can by bending your elbows. Make sure to keep your tummy muscles tight and back flat. Slowly lower your body.

Do 12-16 reps, rest and repeat twice more.

This exercise develops the large 'V'-shaped back muscles, as well as the biceps and back of the shoulder.
