Slanted pull-ups on the horizontal bar

Hang with a wide or medium grip on an oblique horizontal bar. One arm is straight, the other is partially bent. The body must be vertical. With the efforts of the hands, achieve this position. This in itself is a very difficult and effective exercise.

Next, keeping your body upright, pull yourself up as high as you can by bending both arms. One arm will bend completely (the one below), and the other not completely. Hold this position for a second. Feel the uneven contraction of the back muscles, feel all the asymmetry of this type of pull-ups. Focus on her. Then slowly return to the starting position, also trying to maintain the vertical position of the body. Perform the desired number of repetitions. Then pause and do the exercise, changing the position of your hands (or turning your face to the other side) to evenly train both halves of the body.

As your fitness, strength, and endurance increase, add extra weight to your waist. Or widen your grip.

Oblique pull-ups perfectly develop not only the latissimus dorsi, but also biceps, forearm muscles, rear bundles of deltoid muscles, serratus muscles, and trapezius muscles. They force the muscles to work in a very unusual, asymmetric mode, which greatly stimulates growth. When pulling up, exhale, when lowering, inhale.

If possible, try doing this exercise hanging on a thick pipe. This greatly complicates the matter and additionally develops grip strength.

You can use a supinated grip (palms facing you).

You can perform this exercise using a regular straight bar. To create asymmetry, a strong towel is used, which is thrown over the crossbar and held by it with one hand. The other hand is holding onto the bar.
