pull ups using a resistance band to develop strength

Martin worked at the studio on his first 12-9-6 WOD.
The full rep range for a workout like this would be 21-15-9, but I wanted to scale it
appropriately for him, as the sumo deadlift high pulls and the pull ups are new to him.
On the pull up front, Martin has 2 good dead hang pull ups, so we used a resistance band to
allow him to up the rep range and keep better form in order to keep a bit more pace through this WOD.

Once Martin has developed a his dead hang pull up to around 10/12, then I plan to start teaching him
how to do a kipping pull up.
