  1. Great video! Assisted pull-ups are a great way to start. Just be really careful with those chin-up bars. As a teenager I tried hanging upside down from one and it (and I) came crashing down. They’re safe for pull-ups, but don’t be dumb like I was. Keep yourself right side up. If you get the hang of these and want to try something even harder, you can try one arm pull-ups, like these: http://www.reallifehealth.com/App/ExercisePopup.aspx?ExerciseID=365&ExerciseName=One%20Arm%20Pullups
