Key Teaching Points:
- 1. A thumbless grip can help better feel lat engagement over bicep dominance.
- 2. End range is where the real work happens — do not shy away from it.
- 3. Initiate from the shoulder blades, not from the biceps.
- 4. Chin clears the bar at the top; avoid excessive neck extension or jutting.
Regression:
Perform a bodyweight inverted row at a low bar to build the pulling pattern with reduced load.
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.
