- Floor Based

- Focus
- Superset?:
- Yes
- Sprint-able?:

Key Teaching Points:
- 1. Avoid compensation patterns; if form breaks, address the limiting factor.
- 2. End range is where the real work happens — do not shy away from it.
- 3. Lead the movement with elbows driving straight down, not flaring back.
- 4. A thumbless grip can help better feel lat engagement over bicep dominance.
Regression:
Use a resistance band looped under the knees for assistance, or substitute ring rows with feet on the floor.
Progression:
Add an L-sit or tuck position to increase core demand during the hang and pull.
Common Problems:
Grip fatigue limiting the set — use chalk or straps so lat strength, not grip, is the limiting factor.
