Movement instructions

1
Grab onto a chinup bar with one hand, using a pronated grip. Keep your feet on the floor or a step. Allow the majority of your weight to hang from that hand, while keeping your feet on the ground. Hold for 10-20 seconds and switch sides.

Technique guidance

Breathe slowly and evenly. Exhale as you ease into a comfortable range, and never use the breath to force a deeper position.

Use only a comfortable range; a stretch may feel like tension but should not feel sharp or joint-specific.
Come out of the position slowly and use support when balance is limited.
Inspect the implement and clear its movement path before starting.

General guidance matched from movement type and equipment; it is not individualized coaching or medical advice.
