The Band Assisted Pull Up targets your back, arms, and shoulders. Ideal for beginners, it helps build strength for regular pull-ups. The band lightens your body weight, making it easier to perform while boosting upper body strength.
Find a sturdy pull-up bar and a resistance band that you can use.
2
Place the band in the middle of the bar and then securely pull one end through the other, forming a loop.
3
Stand on a box or a step if the bar is too high. Put your knee or foot in the band’s loop.
4
Reach up and grab the pull-up bar with your hands slightly wider than shoulder-width apart, palms facing forward.
5
Pull yourself up until your chin is level with your hands, then lower yourself back down with control. Remove your foot or knee from the loop and repeat.
