Essential Exercises for GORNATION Pull Up Bars

1. Pull-Ups

Muscles Targeted: Back, Biceps, Shoulders. Pull-ups are a staple in calisthenics for building upper body strength. Grip the bar with your palms facing away from you, pull your body up until your chin is over the bar, then lower yourself back down with control.

2. Leg Raises

Muscles Targeted: Core, Hip Flexors. Leg raises are excellent for core strength. Hang from the bar and lift your legs until they form a 90-degree angle with your body. Lower them back down slowly.

 

3. Chin-Ups

Muscles Targeted: Biceps, Back. Chin-ups are similar to pull-ups but with your palms facing towards you. This exercise primarily targets the biceps while also working the back muscles. 

4. Assisted Pull-Ups with Resistance Band

Muscles Targeted: Back, Biceps, Shoulders. Use resistance bands to support your weight and help you perform pull-ups. Attach the band to the bar and place one foot or knee in the loop to reduce the load on your muscles.

5. Ring Push-Ups (using Gymnastics Rings)

Muscles Targeted: Chest, Triceps, Core. Attach gymnastics rings to your pull-up bar for ring push-ups. This variation adds instability, challenging your core and upper body even more.

6. Australian Pull-Ups with Rings

Muscles Targeted: Back, Biceps, Core. Set the rings low and lean back, keeping your body straight. Pull your chest towards the rings, then lower yourself back down. This exercise is great for developing back and bicep strength.

7. Mixed Grip Pull-Up

Muscles Targeted: Back, Biceps, Shoulders. Perform pull-ups with one palm facing you and the other facing away. This mixed grip engages your muscles differently and helps improve grip strength.

8. L-Sit Pull-Ups

Muscles Targeted: Core, Back, Biceps. Combine core and upper body training with L-sit pull-ups. While hanging from the bar, lift your legs to a 90-degree angle and perform pull-ups. This exercise requires significant core strength and stability.
