The inverted hang is used to strengthen the scaps and can be performed as a single hold as well as for reps.
Cues:
- Body should be in a straight line from shoulders through ankles
- retract and elevate the scaps to resist gravity
- place thighs in front rings to achieve a slight angle that is NOT vertical
Mistakes:
- Hanging vertically
- Allowing scaps to relax and settle into a passive hang (requires vertical position)
- being bent at hips, or arching through spine
- Bending the elbows
Considerations:
- Curling the body and legs up is the easiest method of entry
- When stronger you can enter with a flat back and eventually a fully straight body
