They are considered the gold standard for upper body pulling strength, primarily targeting the latissimus dorsi (lats) while engaging the biceps, forearms, and core. Pull-ups require lifting your entire body weight, making them one of the most demanding bodyweight exercises. They build a strong, V-shaped back and develop grip strength that carries over to many sports and activities.
