7 Minuten Trainings sind eine großartige Möglichkeit, um den Körper mit intensivem Circuittraining in kürzester Zeit in Form zu bringen und ein allgemeines Fitnessniveau zu erhalten. Mit einem Klimmzug kannst Du es noch besser machen.
Why Is it Important to Have Pull Moves in a Workout?
Training antagonistic muscle groups in an unbalanced way is a common way to injuries. A common imbalance is overworking the chest versus the back. Complementing upper body push moves with row moves create muscle balance in this important body region. The row targets the back and shoulder muscles which balance the chest and lat muscles.
Any workout which aims at targeting the whole body should include a certain balance of push and pull moves for the main antagonistic muscle groups. That’s why I would recommend this 7 minutes workout with the inverted row as the more complete variant. In fact, I am already thinking about another variant which should include a pull moves for the lower body too.
How to Row And Pull Without a Bar?
Gravity makes it much easier to perform bodyweight push moves than rows or pull-ups. We can simply push our bodyweight off the ground or an object like a chair standing on the ground. The same is true for the legs. For pull moves, we need something very solid like a rock or a tree to pull ourselves up.
For this workout, we propose to use the Table Row.
PRECAUTION: USE A STURDY TABLE FOR THIS EXERCISE AND MAKE SURE IT CANNOT BRAKE OR FALL DOWN ON YOU!
Watch the Trapp Brothers excellent video for more pull-up alternatives without a pull-up bar.

Variation is an important principle of physical training.
After six to twelve weeks with this extraordinarily simple and efficient workout, it’s time to start varying at least a few exercises or completely different training plans.
