I'm like 172 lbs for 6'2" so I'm not quite sure where that puts me. I'd like to think that I'm pretty average though.

I don't work out but I do a fair bit of cardiovascular activity.

1.7m and 68kg. I want to drop 5kg, but I hate working out. Sitting all day is terrible for my physique as well

Start with negatives or assisted and take measurable steps to progress (number of reps, weight assisted)

Sit ups and crunches are garbage exercises anyway.

I used to do chin-ups with 50lb. Been awhile since I trained weighted though. Plus I put on 15lb since then.

False, they just shouldn't be the only things you do. A couple of my favorites are Russian Twists with a medicine ball, and 10-8-6s.

+ Show Spoiler [10-8-6] +
10 v-ups, 10 tuck ups, 10 second hollow hold, 8 v-ups, 8 tuck ups, etc...

Generally do two sets of them, but one is real hard if you haven't done them in a while/ever

they work different muscle groups - one is not a substitute for the other

chinups are way easier though for most people at least
builds up a lot of the strength you need for pullups properly

I have been informed that I was doing chinups. Only hit 11 pullups RIP my lats

They're both pulling exercises though which is something most people don't do enough of. Also both require you not to have a fucked up back and doing them helps strengthen your back against classic nerd disease of sitting in a chari over a computer

Correct, which is why they don't substitute well. Pullups hit more lats, which chinups will help somewhat develop I agree, but the best way to build up pullups is to do pullups
