Beginner Pullup Complex (5×9)

If necessary, use a band to complete the first two movements. To begin the static hold, jump or execute a strict pull-up to get the chin over the bar. Once there, begin the 3-second hold ensuring the chin is not resting on the bar. If using a band, place the feet into the band, then execute a pull-up to get the chin over the bar. After the static hold, stay on the bar and execute the strict pull-ups ensuring the arms are completely straight at the bottom. Continue to stay on the bar to execute the 5 kip swings using the shoulders and lats to press into the bar to keep the movement controlled. If using a band for the strict pull-ups, come out of the band before practicing the kip swings.
