How to Perform

  1. 1

    Hang from a pull-up bar with an overhand grip, arms fully extended.

  2. 2

    Engage core and lift straight legs up towards the bar, aiming to touch toes to bar (pike position). Use momentum or assistance if needed to reach the top.

  3. 3

    From the top pike position, slowly lower your straight legs back down to the starting hanging position.

  4. 4

    Focus on controlling the descent (negative phase), resisting gravity.

  5. 5

    Maintain core tension throughout. Repeat for desired repetitions.
