Finding pull ups hard? Lots of people find it hard to develop the pull strength for their first ever pull up. What's difficult is often we don't have a way to regress an exercise to a level where we can develop the pull strength through enough volume of work simply because the normal pull up is too hard for us. The lower body assisted pull ups are great for any beginner as you can use as little or as much assistance as you need from the legs and gradually over time reduce the assistance from the legs as you progressively get stronger at pulling up.
Give them a try and let us know how you get on if you're working towards your first pull up.
