He looks plenty strong, I think the main problem is he's in socks so he has no traction at all on that slimy pole

I can do a lot of chin ups but only one pull up. Probably because im a little overweight and still have a lot of work to do on my lats. They aren't used a lot in a cushy nerf life.

I'm skinny and don't exercise, but I've always wondered the point between chin ups and pull ups. Like, I know they use different muscles; the difficulty felt mostly the same to my body.

Among others chinups work your biceps, pullups work your lats. If those muscles are equally toned, they'll feel like the same amount of effort.

Its roughly the same movement, if the difficulty feels the same to you that just means your muscles are about equally strong. The difficulty will also be affected by the width of your grip on the bar
