Primer for pull ups or bar muscle ups
Establishing the hollow position-

1. https://www.instagram.com/p/BnnY5gnBCQa/
  Use a band with both feet in it and while pushing against the bar, pull yourself into a hollow position.

2. https://www.instagram.com/p/BpvuKp-h50f/
Use a band with both feet in it and push away into the hollow and then pull up, getting chin over the bar
And on this video (2nd drill shown)- use a box under the rig. Hang in the active hang position. While pushing against the bar to the hollow, move your feet up the box. Hold the hollow, then return to active hang.

3. https://www.instagram.com/p/Boc8hJnhTsc/
Use a racked barbell with bands and perform the banded bar muscle up drill. Your only job is to keep your arms straight.
