CFWU: PULL UPS

Start with an overhand (pull ups) or underhand (chin ups) grip. Extend your arms fully at the bottom of every rep. Pull yourself up completely until your chin is over the bar. That full-range of motion counts as one rep.

Start with partner-assisted or use the pull up bands as you work to get strong enough for your first pull up. Jumping pull ups are also a good substitute. Static holds at the top (chin over the bar), the middle (elbows at 90 degrees) and at the bottom will rapidly improve your strength.
