All pull-up variations will target the back muscles. It is an overall dominant back movement. The muscle group which will be worked hard are the lats and the traps. These are two of the larger muscle groups in the back. Almost all of the back muscles will assist in this movement. Also, your bicep and forearms will be involved and can be experienced as "sore" the day after doing pull-ups.
The pull-up next to bent over rows and dead-lifts are considered to be a staple for back training.
