TECHNIQUE

1. The athlete will begin while taking an underhand grip on a pull-up bar that is shoulder width apart.
2. He will lift his legs off of the ground and cross them behind him.
4. In a controlled manner, he will pull himself up lifting his chin over the bar and slowly descending back down to the start position.

COACHING POINTS

1. The athlete should not rock or sway to gain momentum. If he must do this, then he should continue doing lat pull-downs to develop his upper back strength.
