Wide-grip Pull-ups

Sure, normal pull-ups are great back-builders. So why not bring your shoulders into the equation too? Wide-grip pull-ups are the perfect last attacker, ramping up the effort needed for every rep compared to your normal pull-up.

Sit-ups

Sandbag Sprints

Load a sandbag on your shoulders and run back and forth for about 10 to 15 meters as fast as possible. This sprinting exercise will not only help in endurance but will as well help build stronger shoulders, legs and back.

Hanging Leg Raise

Hang from a pull-up bar with hands slightly wider than shoulder width and palms facing forward, and then, raise your knees to your chest. To make it harder, keep your legs straight out in front of you as you raise them.
