Many rowing coaches will say “Hang From It”, referring to the way rowers hang from the oars as they drive their legs down.  In order to protect our shoulders it helps to build up our ability to keep the lats engaged and shoulders back and down while we hang.  Thus our daily challenge…

Daily Challenge 5/15:

Hang from a pull up bar with your chin over the bar for 3×30 seconds.  If thirty seconds is to long either reduce your hang time or add a light jump stretch band to the mix.

Share your experience!  Was it hard?  Did you keep your scapula retracted back and down?
