Modified Pull Up
If you are a beginner, Modified Pull Ups are the best way to build strength as you work up to pull ups. This exercise uses about 30% of your body weight for resistance. Once you can do 10-15 reps this way, raise your feet on a chair to increase the resistance to about 60% of your body weight.
