A U.S. marine performing a pull-up. A pull-up is an upper-body strength exercise.The pull-up is a closed-chain movement where the body is suspended by the hands, gripping a bar or other implement at a distance typically wider than shoulder-width, and pulled up.
To dismount, the arms are bent at the elbow, as in a dip, and the body is lowered to the floor, and the exercise can be repeated. As a relatively advanced exercise, muscle-ups are typically first learned with an assistive kip. The legs swing (kip) up and provide momentum to assist in the explosive upward force needed to ascend above the bar.
This is a compound exercise that also involves the triceps and the front deltoids, also recruits the upper and lower back muscles, and traps. The bench press is the king of all upper body exercises and is one of the most popular chest exercises in the world. It is the final exercise in 'The big 3'.
The upright row is a weight training exercise performed by holding a weight with an overhand grip and lifting it straight up to the collarbone. This is a compound exercise that involves the trapezius, the deltoids and the biceps. The narrower the grip the more the trapezius muscles are exercised, as opposed to the deltoids.
The Push/pull/legs split consists of three different workout routines: First, the push muscles consisting of the chest, anterior and lateral deltoids, and triceps. Then, the exercises for pull muscles (latissimus, trapezius, rhomboids, biceps, and rear deltoids) are worked on the second day. The final workout consists of training the muscles of ...

Starting out by lifting lower weights to build endurance in the lower back as well as the upper pulling muscles. Upper back muscles often have a lot of slow-twitch fibers so bent-over rows can respond better than some exercises that use muscles with a higher ratio of fast-twitch fibers. Doing the exercise with a slow tempo and avoiding jerking.
