Set up for a regular horizontal pullup. Grab the bar with one arm, centering it with your body. Bend your knees a little bit and bring your feet in a little closer than normal. As you pull up toward the bar, reach the other arm up toward the ceiling (as if you are punching upward). Repeat the reps with the other arm.
This is a great body-weight exercise and a perfect option for those who don't find the regular horizontal pullup very difficult.
TIP: Throwing the opposite arm upward helps to maintain your balance. If possible, try placing your opposite hand on your hip or across your torso.
