⚠️ THE MISTAKE
Making a big “C” shape when you pull yourself up.
✅ THE CORRECT FORM
Pulling as straight and vertically as possible.
🧠 REMEMBER THIS
Curved Pull = Longer Path = Inefficient
Straight Pull = Shorter Path = Efficient
☝🏽COMMON REASON WHY THIS HAPPENS
1 - Going from arched back to hollow. Not keeping a Thoracic Extension throughout the movement.
2 - Relying too much on strength to compensate a poor technique.
✍️ DO THIS TO FIX IT
1 - Keep your chest open (Thoracic Extension). It will give you a mechanical advantage by matching the Lat fibers with the direction we want to produce force.
2 - Keep a scapula depression — check Part 1 in the previous post.
2 - Look at the bar for feedback (so you know of you aren’t pulling yourself away from the bar)
Note…
~ If you eventually want to do Weighted Chin Ups nailing the vertical pulling path is key.
The practice goes on.
Sending you love, family!
