-
1) Make the first pull not as far as you can reach. By not having the upper arm fully extended you will be able to match with more control.
2) Now focus on reducing the noise with your lower body when you reach.
3) Changing the rung size will help you make gains. If you are feeling strong on the larger rungs move to a smaller rung to stress the fingers. If you have been on a smaller rung increase the rung size and see if you can get a 1/2 rung further.
