Milind Soman Does Pull-Ups
Milind Soman shared a video of himself performing a pull-up variation in the middle of a park. He is doing a hybrid exercise combining pull-ups and leg lifts. It requires controlled movement that can be challenging for beginners. While these are great, they may not be the best option for you if you are just starting your fitness journey. Basic pull-ups are also great for your body.
He captioned the post, "Enjoying the weather! One last farewell pullup while leaving the house 😀 since I have no workout regime, and no gym schedule, any opportunity to get in some movement, even for a few seconds, will be grabbed!!"
Soman regularly posts videos and pictures of his fitness routine, motivating people - his fans and followers - to find the time to exercise even when they're too busy.
The fitness aficionado insists that physical fitness is linked to maintaining the overall health of a person, both mental and physical. No matter the age, you should always stay active with what you think works for you.
How To Perform Pull-Ups
- Hold a fixed bar with a comfortable grip and hands slightly further than shoulder-width apart.
- Begin to hang from the bar, with your legs suspended and toward your chin-up.
- Pull yourself up and down, sticking out your chest.
- Keep your core tight, only use your arms and upper body to raise your chin above the bar.
- Now, slowly lower yourself until your arms are extended, and repeat.
Benefits Of Pull-Ups
Doing a pull-up is good for your upper body, especially your arms, shoulders, and back muscles. Challenging but worth it, this exercise is believed to improve overall physical health, reduce anxiety, improve cognitive function, improve your overall body strength, and strengthen your arm and shoulder muscles.
So, if you are someone starting your fitness journey, pull-ups can be a good addition to your routine. However, you should always check with a fitness trainer before you get started.
