Pull-ups can well train your latissimus dorsi and biceps, abdominals, long heads of triceps, deltoid muscles, and even chest muscles. At the same time, pull-ups require strong core strength and coordination, so pull-ups are also called the king of upper body training!
There are many variations of pull-ups, and we can make some subtle changes to help us reduce or increase the difficulty! For beginners who have difficulty with pull-ups, they usually use elastic band assistance, eccentric pull-ups, and others to help reduce the difficulty and gradually improve pull-ups!
