Pull-ups are very simple but very hard. Most people think they know how to do pull-ups but there are quite a few variations on the proper form that some hardos might frown on, but still count as legitimate pull-ups. To perform a pull-up, hang on to any bar, doorway, tree branch,...

It is a great variation if you struggle with pronated pull-ups or if you want more arm size. If you want even more biceps involvement, use a closer than shoulder-width grip. Neutral-Grip Pull-Up A neutral grip (palms facing each other) puts less pressure on your elbow and shoulder join...
The outside neutral grips are 2" in diameter to work grip strength, while the rest of the bars are the standard 1.25" diameter. We've also welded on two pairs of 3" and 4" pull-up spheres for even more grip training. The 3" spheres are spaced 16" on center while the 4" are 32...
