If you're doing the P90x program you'll need to get weight bands. That's a good way to start out, and then like jumar said, periodically try to pull yourself up on a bar. also, it wouldn't hurt to work your biceps since that is a secondary muscle group used in pullups. either way, best of luck!

Guys don't forget that swimming is the best cardio workout out there, most people don't mention it because it's too hard to maintain a good swimming workout, but take it from me: swim, bike, run, do pullups, do pushups, do healthy weight lifting excercises and you'll be in great shape for a long time! Keep up the good work

@MrAlstair123 thanks for the tips man

looking forward to making progress this summer

@lakerizvi You could probably do the same as long as you maintain the routine and NEVER deviate, I don't consider myself a very strong person and i was still able to achieve that goal so i'm pretty sure you'll get there way faster. Anyways see if that works for you.

BTW I'm studying to become a lifeguard too lol, good luck bro.

@lakerizvi Good man basketball is one of the best sports out there for cardio and lean muscle creation, the way i got good at pullups was by taking monday, wednesday, and friday as my pullups day started doing five sets of one very good pullup, by that i mean going all the way up and all the way down, and every week i incremented the amount of pullups per set, usually by one. But by the fifth week i was at five pullups in five sets, then i moved to doing 8 pulls in 3 sets, and now i do 10 in 4.

@MrAlstair123 i am training to be a lifeguard and they make you do rescues on people, treading with the weights, timed laps nd stuff like that. i just need to complete one more course which ill do when i am 16 yet i can only do one pull-up. any further advice as to what i should do?

oh and i play basketball about 2-4 times a week for around 3 hrs everytime I go

I hope it's just the angle but it looks like you never get your chin over the bar. If you're doing P90x, you;ll notice he does an inbetween of chest to bar and chin over bar so you'll want to go up a little higher. Good luck!
