Exercise Type:
Upper Pull
Contraindications:
None
Equipment:
Floor Based
Applicability:
Focus
Superset?:
No
Sprint-able?:
No

Key Teaching Points:

  1. 1. Avoid shrugging at the top — the scapulae should stay depressed throughout.
  2. 2. Initiate from the shoulder blades, not from the biceps.
  3. 3. Engage the core before initiating any movement.

Regression:

Cable lat pulldown in the same movement path before transferring the pattern to bodyweight.

Progression:

Progress to a muscle-up or transition pull to a higher-level gymnastic skill.

Common Problems:

Grip fatigue limiting the set — use chalk or straps so lat strength, not grip, is the limiting factor.
