Gymnastics on the horizontal bar - a set of useful exercises

The horizontal bar is a simple and very effective exercise machine, if, of course, you know how to use it correctly. It is in every yard, so it will not be difficult to use it for training. Thanks to such exercises, you can work out various muscle groups, and most importantly, the horizontal bar is suitable for both men and women. There are exercises for beginners and pros. If some tasks seem difficult to you, then try to complete them gradually. Do them for less time, gradually increasing it. Start with fewer sets. Everything will depend on your preparation, but you can start doing gymnastics on the horizontal bar from the very beginning level.

Pull-up technique


Many people can do pull-ups a small number of times, but to influence a specific muscle group, you need to perform the exercise correctly. As practice shows, even experienced and developed athletes do not always manage to do more than five pull-ups correctly. Before performing a pull-up program at home, a good warm-up and warm-up of the muscles is necessary. It is best to do push-ups from the floor several times and stretch your shoulder joints. When performing exercises on the crossbar at home, you must follow a certain technique.

  • Maintaining correct body position . You need to fix your legs, you can fix them together and bend your knees at an angle of ninety degrees. In this position, lifting is carried out due to the strength of the arm muscles (the help of the legs and pelvis is excluded), and the work of the back is felt.
  • Frequency and effort. To thoroughly work out the muscles, the exercise is best performed slowly, that is, lifting and lowering the body should be done at the same speed and evenly. There should be no jerking when moving. Hands must be kept tense. Muscle mass should be felt.
  • Correct breathing: when ascending, inhale evenly, when lowering, exhale.

Press on the horizontal bar

In addition to developing your back muscles, you can very effectively pump up your abs on the horizontal bar.

Leg Raise

Once you reach the point where you can hang for 40-60 seconds, you can do various variations of abdominal exercises. For example, leg lifts.

There are two options here:

  1. Raising your legs with your knees bent.
  2. Army corner.

With the first option everything is clear. We raise our knees, twisting our pelvis behind them to maximally load the abdominal muscles.

In the second option, you need to lift your legs straight and touch the crossbar with them. By the way, if you then move your legs behind the horizontal bar, you will perform the “lifting with an inversion” element. But it’s still too early to try this element.

The Army Corner is an excellent horizontal bar exercise for beginners that will comprehensively strengthen your abdominal and core muscles, as well as your upper legs.

Crunches

Hang from the horizontal bar. Raise your legs bent at the knees alternately to the right and left. This way you pump up the oblique abdominal muscles.

Recommendations for working on the press

These tips are a lot like the tips for doing pull-ups:

  1. Don't sway - inertia makes the exercise easier. If you still sway, stop.
  2. Do everything smoothly and without jerking.
  3. Breathe correctly.
  4. If your hands slip, put on gloves. You can’t practice in this state – you might break down.

Varieties of grips when performing pull-ups

Not everyone training at home pays attention to the position of their hands on the horizontal bar, but it is the grip that determines which muscle group the main load will be directed to. The grip of the bar varies as narrow, medium and wide.

  • Narrow - used to train the forearm and biceps, excluding the action of the back muscles, performed with the arms as close as possible.
  • Medium - the position of the hands corresponds to the width of the shoulders. The load is distributed evenly. The arms, shoulders and back are equally involved in raising the torso. The most common grip when doing pull-ups.
  • Wide - performed with the greatest mutual distance between the hands. To create the greatest load, the thumb does not wrap around the horizontal bar. Designed to train the back muscles.

Training in advanced exercises

Having mastered the basic tricks on the horizontal bar, you can move on to more complex ones. The next most difficult exercises are climbs; they can be very easy or really difficult. To do them, you need to develop endurance and a sense of balance.

Lifts with inversions

Performed using a direct grip. Having pulled yourself up, you need to move your upper body forward and throw your legs over the bar. After this, a revolution is carried out and the arms reach straight above the crossbar.

Feather lifts

They are a complicated version of the previous technique; when performing it, the body should not touch the horizontal bar. To do this, when pulling up, you should push off with your feet and do a push-up at the same time.

Kip-ups or riveting

They are done without pull-ups; to perform them, the legs rise to the crossbar of the horizontal bar, dive, and the athlete comes out with straight arms. This trick is a bit complicated and is learned in parts.


After learning these tricks, you are allowed to move on to the next stage of training. During its course, an already experienced athlete will be able to perform the techniques that he chooses from a wide range of options. It can be:

  • two-handed outputs
  • "angel exits"
  • Spanish exits and many other tricks on the horizontal bar.

With the acquisition of the necessary experience, any restrictions are removed, the main thing is not to forget about safety precautions.

Different goals - different techniques

By doing pull-ups you can develop both strength and muscle mass. To learn how to competently do a certain slope, you need to remember what this exercise consists of. It consists of two stages:

  1. Positive phase - body lifting
  2. Negative phase - lowering the body

These phases are present in all strength exercises and are worth considering in more detail.

To generate force:

  1. Within three seconds, slowly raise the body, and lower it quickly - in one second.
  2. Gradually increase the number of approaches
  3. Create muscle tension when lifting
  4. Rest between sets for no more than two to three minutes.

Working for mass:

  1. Raise your torso quickly for one second and slowly lower it in about three seconds.
  2. Constant number of approaches without increasing
  3. When lowering the body, the muscles should be as tense as possible
  4. Rest between sets for more than three minutes
  5. After training at home, take a sufficiently energy-rich diet.

As you can see, the weight pull-up program at home has the opposite bias than for strength development.


When pull-ups are easy, you can use weights to make the exercise more difficult at home. To increase your own weight, belts with weights attached to them, leg weights, and backpacks with sand are used. The load weight is added gradually. It should be borne in mind that when working with weights, you must be careful so as not to cause harm to the body. Experienced athletes practice pull-ups with one arm, the second is behind their back, but here you need to have great strength and dexterity.

Exercises on the horizontal bar

25>

On the crossbar, strength and mainly swing exercises are performed - pull-ups, lifts, flips, revolutions, turns, swings, flights, somersaults, dismounts. Gymnasts perform a huge number of elements, varied in motor forms, technical solutions, and performance styles. There are about 200 types of exercises on the crossbar, and the number of elements exceeds 1000. They help strengthen the muscles of the arms, shoulder girdle and torso, improve coordination of movements, and spatial orientation. When performing exercises on the crossbar, inertial forces are manifested, sometimes exceeding the weight of the gymnast by 5–6 times (up to 400 kg or more), so students have to experience long-term overloads both in the head-pelvis direction (high rotations) and in the pelvis-head direction (revolutions in stops, riding, forward and backward). Most exercises on the bar come down to hanging and supporting movements, as well as transitions from one position to another. The success of these actions largely depends on technically correctly performed hanging, support and hand grip on the bar of the crossbar.

While hanging, it is necessary to stretch out as much as possible by increasing mobility in the shoulder joints, the head is slightly tilted forward, which ensures the most natural distribution of muscle tone involved in maintaining a given body posture, the arms are shoulder-width apart or narrower.

The design of the crossbar and its main dimensions are shown in Figure 29.

Rice. 29. Crossbar device

Due to the fact that during the swing movements the load on the hands increases and decreases, the student must change the strength of the grip, strengthening and weakening it accordingly. This makes it possible to relax and not rub the skin of your palms so quickly. Under the influence of strong friction against the crossbar, your hands can be injured. To avoid this, the first two or three sessions on the bar should be done very carefully in order to prepare the palmar surfaces of the hands.

With the current level of development of sports technology, a gymnast has to train on the horizontal bar often and for a long time. Even well-prepared palm surfaces cannot withstand heavy loads, as a result of which sometimes the gymnast breaks calluses and is out of action for a long time. To avoid tearing calluses, most gymnasts use special “overlays”, which are made of wicks or leather with a thickness of 1.5–2.0 mm.

Assistance and insurance are provided during exercises in such a way that the belayer stands at the site of a possible fall and is ready to support the student in the event of a fall.

Hanging pull-up . Performed from a hang on straight arms with an overhand grip (the position of the hang is fixed for 1–2 s). When pulling up, your legs are straight and your chin should be higher than the bar. It is prohibited to perform whipping movements with the legs. Training is carried out using the shin and thigh.

Raising straight legs to the crossbar . From a hanging position, with an overhand grip, without bending your arms, raise your straight legs and touch the bar with them, lower your legs to the starting position. Training is carried out with the help of: one hand - under the back, the other - behind the legs.

Lifting by inversion (Fig. 30). From hanging, pull yourself up with an overhand grip, raise your straight legs to the bar, continuing to pull yourself up and turn around it, go into emphasis on straight arms, bend your body (the position of the hang and support is fixed on straight arms for 1–2 s). Lowering into a hanging position is performed in an arbitrary manner. It is prohibited to perform whipping movements with the legs.

How to learn to do pull-ups from scratch

Even at home, you can equip a pull-up bar by installing it in the doorway. If you don’t know how to do pull-ups at all, start with regular hanging on the horizontal bar, increasing the hanging time daily. The hands need to get used to the load in order for the grip to become stronger. Next, you can begin lifting your body. Take a medium grip and evenly pull your body up, move your elbows down and spread to the sides. Stabilize your core by tensing your abdominal muscles. Lower yourself down once your chin is above the bar.

What difficulties do beginners face?

Usually, while practicing on the crossbar, many experience some difficulties, namely:

  • Large body weight makes pulling up additional difficult, and not only for those whose muscles are not very developed. You understand, lifting a lot of weight is very difficult! Therefore, you do not need to start your sports activities with a horizontal bar if the weight is quite heavy. First, strengthen your body and do a slightly different set of activities.
  • For those who have not paid attention to their body at all, it will also be difficult to perform, even if the weight is not heavy. This is especially true for teenagers and children, as muscle mass is just beginning to increase. In this case, it is also recommended to do preparatory work aimed at developing strength.
  • Sometimes, some beginners try to speed up the process and jump from one approach to another exercise. This can only cause harm! You will not be able to work out your muscles efficiently, and an increasing load can lead to various injuries.

Training programs

American


Good development will be facilitated by weekly performance of the “American” exercise, with the participation of several athletes. The competition consists of pulling up on the horizontal bar from 1 to 10 times, each time adding one lift: 1, 2, 3 ... 10, then in descending order. The one remaining at the end wins if he has the strength to complete the exercise. This complex is effective for working out muscle definition at home, and the competitive factor stimulates significant physical activity.

What are the benefits of morning exercises?

The benefit of morning exercises is that it charges the body with energy for the whole day. In fact, the body is already full of energy, but if you perform a set of exercises in the morning, the brain, rested during sleep, will work much more efficiently, which will have a positive effect on the entire body.

Individuals who want to get rid of extra pounds, or simply improve their tone, should definitely do morning exercises. For those who have digestive problems or simply cannot imagine life without supplements in the form of pharmaceutical drugs and dietary supplements, morning exercises will also be very useful.

Of course, you should not give up vitamin complexes and dietary supplements if you have serious problems with the intestines or excess weight, but if, in addition to this, you include daily morning exercises, your well-being will return to normal even faster.

For some reason, it is believed that to lose weight it is enough to simply wave your arms and legs for 10-15 minutes every morning. Morning workouts are more useful in this regard than evening workouts, but simple swings of the limbs are not enough.

You need exercises that involve muscle groups - push-ups, squats, standing bends, pull-ups and simple exercises for the abdominal area - torso twists, crunches and lateral twists.

Which exercise machine will bring more benefits: an exercise bike or a treadmill? It all depends on your goals.
