- Contraindications:
- None
- Equipment:
- Wall Based, Bar
- Applicability:
- Group
- Superset?:
- Yes
- Sprint-able?:

Key Teaching Points:
- 1. Lower under full control to the dead hang — do not drop.
- 2. Engage the lats by thinking about pulling the shoulder blades toward the back pockets.
- 3. Initiate from the shoulder blades, not from the biceps.
- 4. Chest to the bar on a full pull-up; sternum to the anchor on a ring row.
Regression:
Cable lat pulldown in the same movement path before transferring the pattern to bodyweight.
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.
