P.S. When I say “hang” I mean of course at the top of the movement. I can dead hang for quite some time .

Actually I’m not here to hold people’s hands. Go out and learn a little something about yourself. Seriously, don’t come back.

The only place in my house that you could possibly do a pull-up is on the door, and that has sharp edges that dig into my hands =P annoying. I’d like to be able to practice, but there’s no place. I could probably try the treebranch outside….

You’re expecting people who can’t do a pull-up to nonetheless know what the heck a lat is. Wow, you’re out of touch.

If you follow my plan and are patient you will be able to do a pull-up. You can’t rush it. It’s not like doing waste of time exercises like arm curls and triceps extensions.
