Upper Pull
Contraindications:
Wrist Problems, Lower Back Problems
Equipment:
Floor Based
Applicability:
Focus
Superset?:
Yes
Sprint-able?:
No

Key Teaching Points:

  1. 1. Lead the movement with elbows driving straight down, not flaring back.
  2. 2. Avoid compensation patterns; if form breaks, address the limiting factor.
  3. 3. Breathe consistently — match breathing to movement rhythm.
  4. 4. Chin clears the bar at the top; avoid excessive neck extension or jutting.

Regression:

Eccentric-only pull-ups: jump to the top position and lower in a slow 5-count.

Progression:

Add a 3-second eccentric on the way down. Progress to weighted pull-ups with a belt.

Common Problems:

Incomplete range — chin must clear the bar; if not, substitute an easier variation until strength catches up.
