First Pull Ups on your list?
If you're in your 40s and struggling with pull ups then try this movement to build ups some strength.
A row is usually going to be a more advantageous way for you to pull your own bodyweight than a pull up.
And so this movement which I stole from GMB combines aspects of both and provides a useful stepping stone between rows and pull ups.
And holding yourself in a position is easier than actually moving
Get yourself into a table top position - see video start.
Arms are directly under the ropes which should hang down vertically.
Row yourself up and whilst holding your body at this height then sit back down.
This will bring your head between the handles of the rings. Now reverse the sequence and let your body descend back down in the row.
Repeat.
