I love pull-ups because they are the epitome of a challenging bodyweight compound exercise, meaning they target multiple muscle groups and joints simultaneously. If you can do them with just your own weight, great, but they are also endlessly scalable using one of the best resistance bands.
Don't worry if you can't do pull-ups yet, or you’re just looking for another way to build your back and biceps. All you need to start with is to improve foundational upper-body strength. And you can achieve this using a bodyweight exercise that targets the same muscle groups, but with a horizontal pulling motion rather than a vertical one.
