re: Can you do one full pull-up?

For years I’ve done pushups but no pull-ups. My shoulders and chest are super tight and I don’t have “normal” range of motion in my shoulders when stretching them. I’m wondering if I overworked/built one half of the joint muscles.

Yes.

Like anything else, the body is about balance. Variation is key. Maybe get a broom stick, start with some basic mobility movements. Solid place to start. Also, just dead weight hangs. Also also, open palm, down and up, shoulder rotations, with arms extended outwards.
