This advanced pull up puts increased strain on the lats and back muscles and is a good option for those looking to improve their unilateral body strength. For the Climber's Pull-Up, grip the bar like you would a standard pull up. Now, pull up with extra force using your left hand, while rotating your right hand flat and over the bar. Use the right hand placed flat above the bar to push on the bar, like you would a lat pull down, and assist you in getting your head above the bar. Once over the bar, reverse the movement back into a dead hang and repeat the motion using the other arm.
This advanced exercise puts added stress on the flexor muscles of the forearm, arm, and torso unilaterally. The muscles of your forearm, arm, back, and torso on one side must be activated at a higher intensity to support the majority of the lift.
