I have a pair of five pound Clubbells®. I want to be able to do some pull-ups but am having trouble, my goal would be to do 10. I also need to lose a few pounds around the abs.

What are the best exercises to build up with the Clubbells® in order to be able to increase my pull-ups? Also, what exercises would be best to build up the abdominal muscles?

Recommendations on books or videos would be appreciated as well.
