Key Teaching Points:

  1. 1. A thumbless grip can help better feel lat engagement over bicep dominance.
  2. 2. Avoid compensation patterns; if form breaks, address the limiting factor.
  3. 3. Breathe consistently — match breathing to movement rhythm.

Regression:

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

Progression:

Increase grip difficulty: towel grip, thick bar, or single-arm progression.

Common Problems:

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