Our Mind is the Obstacle
Many of us are stopped from being able to do pull-ups is our mistaken belief that we can't do it. The notion inside our mind that we can't do a pull-up is a major reason for our incapacity to do it.
Another reason most people cannot do pull-ups is the lack of regular practice. The gym-goers use equipment that narrows their muscle variations and doesn't replicate the real action of a pull-up.

Pull-Up by Machine Assist
Some people are unable to do pull-ups, even on a pull-up assist machine in the gym.
The 'assist' part of the pull-up aid machine might be the reason for the inability, as it can act as a 'crutch'.

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!

I have only been using it for a few days now, but I have found answers to questions I had never consciously formulated, or to problems I face everyday at work or at home. I wish I had found this earlier, highly recommended!
