Archer Pull-Up

Perform a controlled asymmetric pull while the opposite arm contributes less.

What it develops

  • Unilateral pulling capacity
  • Side-to-side control

How to perform it

  1. Use a comfortable wide grip.
  2. Pull toward one hand while lengthening the opposite arm.
  3. Return under control.

Common mistakes

  • Treating it as a one-arm pull-up
  • Twisting or jerking
  • Skipping the descent

Suggested readiness

  • Archer negatives are controlled on both sides.
  • Assistance can vary without losing position.

These suggestions are not a test or verification of ability.

Scale it back

  • Assisted archer pull-up
  • Archer negative
