Everyone Skips This Before Pull-Ups (Dead Hang Basics)

Описание: Quick 1-minute tutorial on how to perform a proper dead hang.

The dead hang is the foundation for all pull-up variations - it builds grip strength, shoulder stability, and scapular control that translates directly to better pulling performance.

What you'll learn:

✅ Proper Form
✅ Active vs. passive hang (and why both matter)
✅ What muscles you are stretching
✅ Rib & Breath Cues

Why the dead hang matters:

Before you chase pull-ups or muscle-ups, you need to master hanging.

This builds:

Grip endurance for longer sets
Shoulder girdle stability and health
Scapular strength and control
Decompression for shoulder and spine health
Foundation for all advanced gymnastics movements

Who needs this:

Can't do pull-ups yet (start here)
Experiencing shoulder pain during pulling movements (avoid this if hanging makes it worse though)
Want to improve pull-up numbers
Training for obstacle course races or climbing
Need better grip strength for deadlifts and rows

Progression:

Start with 10-20 second holds, rest, repeat for 3-5 sets.

Build up to 60+ seconds before adding pull-up progressions.
