Description:
  1. Position a bar in a rack to about waist height. You can also use a smith machine.
  2. Using a slightly wider than shoulder width grip (hands pronated), have client hang underneath the bar. Client's body should be straight with heels on the ground with their arms fully extended. This will be the starting position.
  3. Instruct the client to initiate movement by flexing the elbow, pulling their chest towards the bar. Cue client to retract their shoulder blades as they perform the movement.
  4. Pause at the top of the motion, and return back to the start position.

Regression: If client is unable to maintain core stability or unable to pull their chest until it almost touches the bar, you can have client bend their knees to 90° and keep their feet flat while performing the motion.

Common Error(s): Forward Head Posture | Not engaging core
Spotting: Mirror Client Level
