What Is a Pullup?
A pullup is one of the most common exercises. Similar to a chinup, this bodyweight exercise can help build muscle as well as improve the general fitness and strength of the upper back. The only necessary equipment is a pullup bar, which would be hung horizontally. Your job is to grip the bar and bring your body up as many reps as possible. In addition to the standard pullup, there are many variations in the stance and grip, which target different muscles in the body. [4]
