Active Arch Hang

Cues:

• Pull with 100% straight arms by retracting and depressing the scaps

• The goal is to pull the chest to horizontal and maximize scap retraction

• Allow the legs to relax and hang straight down

• Minimize lat assistance and focus on scaps

• Pull only to the height you are able to with scap activation

Mistakes:

• Bending the elbows

• Overusing the lats to compensate for poor scap retraction

• Raising the legs in front
