Key Teaching Points:
- 1. Breathing: inhale at the dead hang, exhale as you drive elbows to hips.
- 2. Engage the core before initiating any movement.
- 3. End range is where the real work happens — do not shy away from it.
Regression:
Perform a bodyweight inverted row at a low bar to build the pulling pattern with reduced load.
Progression:
Add an L-sit or tuck position to increase core demand during the hang and pull.
Common Problems:
Bicep dominance over lats — cue elbows to hips and experiment with a wider grip.
