![]() Marcy offers some of the best power towers for home use on the market. Someone with more experience can use a weight belt or hold weight plates to increase the resistance of most workouts. If you are not able to perform freestanding pull-ups and dips on your own, use a box to hold some of your weight during the pull-up or dip. However, power tower exercises can easily be modified for any fitness level. Though these may seem like simple or basic exercises, they are actually quite challenging for a novice. While not all power towers have the push-up station option, using the push-up station instead of a flat surface increases the range of motion available during the exercise and allows you to further expand your chest into the push-up. Push-ups: You can do push-ups on any mat or flat surface but using a power tower can make them much more challenging.There are a few options with this type of workout: You can lift your knees into your chest, your legs straight out in front of you, or lift them at a diagonal and alternate sides to target the obliques. Try to avoid swinging to better target your core muscles. Hang slightly and then lift your legs using your abdominal muscles. You may need to lift yourself up a bit to get into the proper position. Leg/knee raises: Place your back against the padded backrest and your forearms on the arm pads.Perform each step slowly and deliberately to get the most out of the exercise. Pull yourself up as much as you can, then lower yourself down slowly. ![]() Keep your grip facing outward to do pull-ups and inward to do chin-ups.
