(I do bench before squat too.)
dude - 80 lb bench press impresses the hell out of me. Do you do your squats free? I am sort of afraid I'll drop everything.
If you would like to train to do a pull-up with your own body weight, you could consider doing negative pull-ups. For some reason, this got me there more quickly than assisted pull ups. I have no idea why and I could be wrong. Do 10 wide grip, 10 narrow girp, 10 underhand, and 10 on the smith machine with your feet on the ground and your back parallel to the ground. If you want. It is my thang, nacho thang. (When I first started, I could not do a wide grip negative pull-up, so I had to do assisted negatives.) And you could take a cue from Sam and hold for 2 seconds at the top. This also, weirdly, seems to be making me stronger.
yes - squat free. Squat Free! You won't drop it, and if you do, that's what the rack is for. Just do it with the bar for starters.
By negative pullups do you mean slowly lowering yourself down? I think that's what I'm doing with the jumping pull ups. I jump up and hang there as long as I can and then slowly lower down. Is that it?
Ah the plight of the drunken blogger. Sorry about my ramblings, I had too much wine. Yes - you are already doing negative pull-ups.
The nice thing about fitness anywhere is that the length of the strap is adjustable. So the handles can be just off the floor or up above your head.
