How to Do Scapular Pull-Up

  1. Take a pronated grip on a pull-up bar.
  2. From a hanging position, raise yourself a few inches without using your arms. Do this by depressing your shoulder girdle in a reverse shrugging motion.
  3. Pause at the completion of the movement, and then slowly return to the starting position before performing more repetitions.
