Can pull-ups lose weight?
Yes, you can.

Pull-ups are actually the most effective way to lose weight. Although this exercise is difficult, it is the most effective way to lose weight!

Most of the weight-loss exercises that dieters can do are relatively simple, such as running, yoga, aerobics and so on. But few people do pull-ups to lose weight, on the one hand, because it is more difficult, on the other hand, because few people know that pull-ups can lose weight, only know that they can exercise their arms. Although few people can do it, pull-ups are one of the good weight-loss exercises!

How to use pull-ups to lose weight effectively

1, completed more than you expected. If you can already do a few pull-ups, the way to make progress is simple: force yourself to finish more times than you can! Setting goals with room for improvement and practical significance can make you work harder than expected, and make pull-up training something you are proud of-just finish it once more, and regard it as a small progress.

2. Try more frequent pull-ups training. Another way to improve the related strength is to increase the training frequency every week. The reason is simple-the more you practice, the stronger your strength, the more standardized your movements, and the more pull-ups you end up with. A reasonable centralized training plan is to train 2-3 times a week and complete 3-4 groups of movements each time.

3. Consider increasing resistance. If you have no problem with 10- 15 pull-ups, then consider increasing resistance in training. On the basis of self-weight, add sandbags, chains and other heavy objects to improve the training difficulty. Remember, the more difficult it is, the more you will gain (on the premise of reasonable diet and regular work and rest).

4. Try variant pull-ups to increase upper limb strength. The standard palm-to-face movement is not the only pull-up movement. In addition to the standard movements, there are quite a few variations and other related exercises that can help you mobilize every muscle in your arms and back.
