4 exercises to achieve your first pullup

Scapular retractions

- Start at a dead hang with your shoulders fully extended

- Squeeze/pull your shoulder blades downward, engaging your lats

- Relax back down and repeat 10x

Lat pullovers

- Grab a straight bar attachment

- Stand with arms extended, torso bent over

- With arms straight, pull the bar down to your thighs

- Slowly extend back up

Negatives:

- Start at the top of the pull-up position

- Lower yourself as slowly as possible

- Keep your mind-muscle connection on engaging your back and pulling to keep your body weight up longer

Dual Cable Pulldown

- Start with arms fully extended

- Pull the cables down to your sides

- Think about leading with your elbows, not pulling with your hands
