Pull ups are a great exercise for developing the muscles of the posterior shoulder girdle including the latissimus dorsi, rhomboids, traps, as well as the biceps. Many individuals I train can not perform a body weight pull up or sustain more than a couple pull ups in a row. Using an exercise band around your knees you will able to perform body weight pull ups. The progressions are simple: start with a thick band around both legs, progress to the same band only around one leg, then progress to a thinner band around both legs…Continue this until you can execute body weight pull ups or band assisted pull ups with the smallest possible band you can hande.
Bands are relatively cheap and versatile (I will demonstrate other exercises at another point). They can be purchased here Perform Better.
