Key Teaching Points:

  1. 1. Lower under full control to the dead hang — do not drop.
  2. 2. Breathe consistently — match breathing to movement rhythm.
  3. 3. Quality of movement always takes priority over speed or load.
  4. 4. End range is where the real work happens — do not shy away from it.

Regression:

Eccentric-only pull-ups: jump to the top position and lower in a slow 5-count.

Progression:

Add a 3-second eccentric on the way down. Progress to weighted pull-ups with a belt.

Common Problems:

Bicep dominance over lats — cue elbows to hips and experiment with a wider grip.
