Key Teaching Points:

- 2. Lower under full control to the dead hang — do not drop.
- 3. Create full-body tension: squeeze glutes, brace core, point toes.
Regression:
Cable lat pulldown in the same movement path before transferring the pattern to bodyweight.
Progression:
Add a 3-second eccentric on the way down. Progress to weighted pull-ups with a belt.
Common Problems:
Shrugging at the top — cue retract and depress scapula before and during the pull. Kipping — require a dead stop at the bottom.
