Hello everyone In this article I will tell you how rubber loops will help you learn how to pull up.

Elastic bands reduce your attraction to the ground, and the denser the projectile, the easier it will be to pull up. You will need several rubber bands to gradually increase the load. The easier it becomes for you to perform the exercise, the thinner the elastic band should be.

A great solution is to learn to pull up with them, since:

1. You will learn to do this exercise correctly from the very beginning. Often beginners who can't pull themselves up even once strain and twitch, so the muscles are pumped disproportionately. The elastic band will help to fix the body and not make unnecessary movements.
2. You will be able to pull up from the very first lesson, which means that you will return to this exercise with great interest.
3. You will immediately be able to train different grips and develop different muscle groups. But it's better to approach everything gradually, because your body may not be ready for such work. There is a risk of injury.

3 important life hacks when training with an elastic band

When choosing a horizontal bar, try to start with one that will be slightly higher than you, since when pulling up the elastic band will tighten, and it will be difficult for you to untangle it. In addition, you will most likely work with bent knees, so there is no need to choose a high horizontal bar.

If you can't pull yourself up, resting on the elastic band with your knees, stand on straight legs. When you get off the projectile, lower first one leg, and then the second. In no case do not jump off the elastic band with both feet, otherwise there is a risk of injuring the face when the projectile is abruptly released.

Change the rubber loop to a thinner one based on your own feelings. If you can already do more than 10-15 pull-ups, take a thinner one. And so on until you can't cope without her at all.

If there is a desire, then there will be a result. The main thing is to do everything wisely and do not run ahead of the locomotive. So you will competently pump the body and avoid injury.
