]]>A chin-up is a variation of pull-up but, the hand position is different. When doing a chin-up, your palms face you. In a pull-up, they face away from you. The space between your hands is different between the two exercises—in chin-ups, your arms are held in a narrower grip and in pull-ups, your arms are wider than shoulder-width.
There are many benefits for both of these exercises. Biceps are being strengthened in both but get more focus when doing a chin-up. Pull-ups are actually much more challenging on the back than chin-ups. Your posture and grip strength are improved, and they sculpt your muscles like no other back or arm exercise.
Hold on to the bar with your arms straight and palms facing away from you. Engage the lats by drawing them down towards your hips. Hold your core and then pull up to get your chest to the bar.
Start by hanging from the bar, with your arms straight and palms facing you. Tuck the chin so it doesn’t jut out over the bar. Engage the lats and core and start to pull up—you’ll feel the biceps more at the end of this movement. Straighten down to the start position and do as many as you can.

]]>Stand in a squat stance and take the pilates ring between your open palms and straighten your arms in front of your chest. Squat down and squeeze the ring between your palms, feeling the resistance in your chest. This exercise works on your legs, glutes, shoulders, and chest muscles.
For this exercise, you can either put your ankles inside the ring or balance on the outside. Inside will work the outside of the thighs and outside you will be working your inner thighs. Lie on your side, using one arm on the floor for balance, and lift both legs up and down. You will also feel it in your waist.
Lie flat on your back with your knees bent and your feet on the floor, put the ring between your knees and squeeze it a little to keep it in place. Lift the glutes off the floor, vertebrae by vertebrae, squeeze the ring as you go up, and release as you go down. Make sure you are engaging the core throughout the entire movement.
This is a core finisher! Lie on your back with your legs straight in the air, put the ring between your ankles and lower your legs so you feel resistance in your core, but don’t curve your lower back. Lift your head, neck, and upper chest, and straighten your arms to the sides of your body. Pulsing the arms up and down in time to your breath, turning the palms upwards and downwards with the inhale and exhale. So five inhales and five exhales, 10 times and you have the pilates 100!
