Key Teaching Points:
- 1. Chin clears the bar at the top; avoid excessive neck extension or jutting.
- 2. Engage the lats by thinking about pulling the shoulder blades toward the back pockets.
- 3. Breathing: inhale at the dead hang, exhale as you drive elbows to hips.
- 4. Establish a stable base before adding any dynamic component.
Regression:
Use a resistance band looped under the knees for assistance, or substitute ring rows with feet on the floor.
Progression:
Progress to a muscle-up or transition pull to a higher-level gymnastic skill.
Common Problems:
Bicep dominance over lats — cue elbows to hips and experiment with a wider grip.
