Key Teaching Points:

  1. 1. A thumbless grip can help better feel lat engagement over bicep dominance.
  2. 2. Chest to the bar on a full pull-up; sternum to the anchor on a ring row.
  3. 3. Initiate from the shoulder blades, not from the biceps.

Regression:

Use a resistance band looped under the knees for assistance, or substitute ring rows with feet on the floor.

Progression:

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

Common Problems:

Shrugging at the top — cue retract and depress scapula before and during the pull. Kipping — require a dead stop at the bottom.
