Weighted Pull-Up

Equipment · Pull-Up Bar / Belt
Setup

Full hang at the bottom, shoulders active. Load on a belt or between the feet.

Coaching cue

Full hang to chin over bar. Add load as soon as you clear 8 clean reps.

Most common mistake

Cutting the bottom of the rep short once it gets heavy. Half a pull-up with weight is worth less than a full one without.
