can you do a 1 arm chinup?

My husband is ace at pull-ups. He can do those behind his head as well as normal ones. He can only do 1 one handed.
I on the other hand cannot even manage 1 in the easiest position, this is one of my goals. x
 
I can do it

I can do only 1 one arm chin up on my right arm. None on my left. I'm 180 lbs. and 6'0 tall. I gained the strength by using the assissted pull-up machine with one arm to train the specific movement of a one arm chin. Maybe I will post a video soon.
 
Right now.. I cannot. im a wuss, and will gladly wear that badge for a bit.. LOL
But!! i like changing things about me for the better.
This is a worthy goal :)

Could you please explain these terms though??

Kipping pullup?
negatives?

thx

Hi dear, don't worry if you cannot even do one chinup neverless a 1 arm chinup. A kipping pullup is . A where you just lower yourself after standing on a bench to strengthen the tendons.

For now forget about kipping pullups just do negatives or normal pullups or chinups even if you can only do one. :D
 
i can grip with one, but I have to grab the wrist to do the pullup. that is not a one arm pullup :(
