Coaching cues
Add load with a dip belt or a dumbbell between your feet. Strict reps only — dead hang to chin over bar, no swinging. Keep your core braced so the added weight doesn't tip you. Lower under control every rep.
Orion Coach programs the Weighted Pull-Up for you. Sets, reps, and load that adapt to your recovery, in real time.
