Instructions

Band Assisted Pull-Up

1

Choke the band around the center of the pullup bar. You can use different bands to provide varying levels of assistance.

2

Pull the end of the band down, and place one bent knee into the loop, ensuring it won't slip out. Take a medium to wide grip on the bar. This will be your starting position.

3

Pull yourself upward by contracting the lats as you flex the elbow. The elbow should be driven to your side. Pull to the front, attempting to get your chin over the bar. Avoid swinging or jerking movements.

4

After a brief pause, return to the starting position.

One Handed Hang

1

Grab onto a chinup bar with one hand, using a pronated grip. Keep your feet on the floor or a step. Allow the majority of your weight to hang from that hand, while keeping your feet on the ground. Hold for 10-20 seconds and switch sides.

Verdict

Both exercises target the lats. Band Assisted Pull-Up is a beginner exercise using other, while One Handed Hang is beginner and uses other.
