Key Teaching Points:
- 1. Quality of movement always takes priority over speed or load.
- 2. Breathing: inhale at the dead hang, exhale as you drive elbows to hips.
- 3. 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:
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.
