Key Teaching Points:

  1. 1. Scapulae retracted and depressed before the pull begins.
  2. 2. Keep the weight close to the body throughout the full range of motion.
  3. 3. Hips and shoulders should rise at the same rate out of the bottom position.

Regression:

Use a bodyweight hip hinge against the wall — stand a foot away, push hips back until they touch, then return — to learn the pattern without load.

Progression:

Add a band around the hips for accommodating resistance at the top where the lever arm decreases.

Common Problems:

Hyperextending at the top — cue rib cage down and glute squeeze rather than a backward lean.
