Next, go to a chin-up or pull-up bar.  Place both hands together with palms facing you.  This is considered a chin-up.  Perform 10 chin-ups.  Then, spread your hands out slightly wider than your shoulders with your palms facing away from you.  This is considered a pull-up.  Perform 10 pull-ups.  Next, go back to the chin-up position where your hands are together with palms facing you.  Hold yourself up to where your elbows and forearm make a 90% angle, or half way through a chin-up.  This is considered an isometric chin-up.  Perform 10 knee ups making sure your body does not rock. 

Next, find a device where you can perform vertical hanging knee and leg lifts.  Place your elbows on the pads while holding your body up.  Place a chair in front of your, lift your legs up 90% and hold them over the chair directly in front of you for 10 seconds.  Then, move your legs to the left, holding them over the chair for 10 seconds.  Next, move your legs to the right, holding them over the chair for 10 seconds.   Lastly, make 10 complete circles over the chair to the left, 10 complete circles over the chair to the right.
