I did think later I should have clarified it to no external resistance.In NW, IIRC Pavel states that OAOLPU and pistols cover everything besides the calves and the pulling muscles of the lower back. Calves are easy to hit without equipment, but how would you work the pulling muscles without any equipment? Would weighted pistols be any different?
TBH I don't think you can work the lower back pulling muscles massively with BW apart from with hypers and any stabilising work they do.
You can (I think?) work upper body pulling muscles (and maybe lower to an extent) with jack-knife pushups but obviously pull-ups, bodyweight horizontal rows will be better.
