01 / Steps
How to do it
Secure an elastic band on the bar and place it as support under your feet.
Hang down so that your weight generates tension in the band and take advantage of that tension to pull with your arms and perform an explosive pull-up, so that your chest goes towards the bar and your hands slightly detach from it.
