Sometimes the most basic piece of equipment is often the most overlooked and undervalued. In this case I would believe this would be the pull-up bar. This is a piece of equipment that can be found cheap online or at most sporting goods stores. It is easy to install and can go in any home.
The thing about pull-up bars is that they often intimidate people. Its not something that everyone can start doing 3 sets of 10 on and therefore people sometimes just bypass doing pull-ups or chin-ups altogether. I believe this is a mistake.
The bar is a great piece of equipment that builds real strength. I put it in the same class as the push up and dip, it might not look as cool as bench pressing a ton of weight, but when you can get up on a bar and rip out bunch of reps you and everyone around you will know your strength.
For starters just try and do 3 or 5 sets of as many as you can do. Even if that means 3 sets of 1 or maybe you can’t even get 1 just try as hard as you can. Obviously if you have some kind of physical limitations it wouldn’t be a good idea, but once you are able to start performing sets the benefits really pay off. You can work so many different parts of your body.
So why not invest a couple of bucks into one of the best and cheapest pieces of equipment out there and get yourself a good pull-up bar.
