Seated Pull-Ups is a challenging conditioning drill where less movement is actually more. The goal with this drill is to hold a hollow body position, and also to hold the body at the same angle as it lifts up.
This drill is useful for students working on their pull ups, and for students working on their inversion and their drops. It is a core drill more than an upper body drill. If the body is held tightly together then even a tiny amount of pullup will translate to the butt lifting slightly, but if the core goes at all disengaged then any pullup in the arms will get lost and no lift will. happen at the seat. For that reason this is a great drill to train students on the importance of keeping a tight body when they pull up in the air.
