7 Moves for Jiggle-Free Arms

Floor Pull-Up
Nick Cardillicchio

4. Floor Pull-Up

Fitness Focus: Back, biceps

  • Lie flat on the floor with your head and shoulders underneath a high, sturdy table.
  • Grasp the table edge with both hands, palms shoulder-distance apart and facing in.
  • Pull yourself up off the floor as high as you can, keeping your abs tight and your neck straight.
  • Pause for 1 second, then lower yourself back down.
  • Repeat for 60 seconds, or as long as you can.
  • If you don't have a table available, lay a broom handle or pole across two chairs placed a few feet apart.

I think that the floor pull up with a broomstick over 2 chairs is a good way to break something.Like the broom or your back.
