michelem, we use a variety of resistance bands to assist with the pullups in Crossfit. I usually try to do as many as I can without and then I switch to the lightest one I can get away with that day. This video shows the guy using his foot, but I usually put my knee through the "loop"--it's a little tougher because you have less "help".

It's basically just a big rubber band attached to the bar. Better than having to use a chair!
