pull ups work the lats (muscles under the armpits and around the back), and the biceps. palms facing away would work the forearms as well.

the main muscle they work are your biceps but overall they work your back and shoulders.

bis, tris, delts (shoulders), lats, as well as traps (back, neck) and forearms.
