Heey,

I go to the gym since december. I started at 83,6 kg now I am at 79,4 kg. My goal is about 72 to 74 kg without losing too much muscles.

Right now I cant do a single pull up and I do a upper body lower body split.

Upper body:

  • Lat Pulldowns (cable)
  • Seated Rows (cable)
  • Australian Pull ups
  • Push Ups
  • Dead Hangs
  • Shoulder press (seated with dumbbells)
  • bicep curls standing with Dumbbells
  • Triceps cable machine

And lower body days I do

Leg press Leg extensions (machine) The other Leg machine that I pull back lol Lunges Knee raises on pull up bar

The wednesday and saturday I do inclined walking at 15% incline and 4 km/h speed for 30 minutes

My thought is losing weight, makes pull ups easier and doing some more bodyweight stuff.

Im scared I will develop disbalance somewhere, am I missing something?

You can always do negatives. Put a bar around shoulder height, stand straight, grab it, and slowly lift your legs. You will start to slide down because you can't hold your bodyweight without putting your legs on the ground. So you'll slide down. Congratulations, you did a negative pull-up.
