How to do it

Overhand grip slightly wider than your shoulders, hanging with straight arms. Start by **pulling your shoulders down** (elbows still straight) and from there pull until your chin clears the bar, chest towards the bar, legs quiet. Lower under control to a full stretch. You feel the whole lat. The classic mistake is swinging: if you need momentum, use the assisted version or do negatives.
