I can grab the bar and bang out a bunch of pull ups with no problem.. but i’m trying to get more focus on best form possible.

When i do lat pull downs.. i depress my scapula right before bringing the bar to my chest and squeezing.. and works fine.. However ive been trying to incorporate that same technique on pull ups.. i just cant. Can someone give me advice on how to mentally approach this lift. Last night in the gym.. I just pulled myself up by pulling through my elbows and trying to focus on my lats… Touching the bar to my sternum and squeezing my shoulder blades at the top of the movement.. and then slowly descending. I could do 2 of those.

Any advice or comments are appreciated.
