'Windshield-wipers' (WW) & 'Meathook' (MH)

3m 9s
THE WHAT:
Both contexts exploring hanging transverse-rotation in a "piked" front-lever form, the 'Windshield wipers' (WW) are a patterning & conditioning context, whilst the 'Meathook' (MH) is an isometric-form which might well be classed as a skill.
For this reason they cannot really be seen as "progressive" from one another, as whilst the 'WW' both requires & develops strength-capacity, the 'MH' both requires & develops EFFICIENCY (namely by virtue of optimal transitions & structure) to enter, hold, and exit what is essentially a "passive" 1-arm hang).

Active shoulder-extension
THE WHAT:
An open kinetic-chain context (i.e. the arms are free to move in space) for both range-development and strengthening of shoulder-extension. Whilst closed kinetic-chain, floor-based contexts (such as the 'AG support' and 'Table' holds) do also develop the same range, they express compara... -
Foundational 'back-lever' development
THE WHAT:
As a straight-arm strength (SAS) form, the 'Back-lever' (BL) develops the capacity to withstand & "pull" ones bodyweight in a position of hanging shoulder-extension, i.e. with the straight-arms BEHIND the medial-line of the body.More fundamentally, however, its progressive-development...

'German-hang' (GH) & 'Skin the cat' (...
THE WHAT:
The 'German-hang' (GH) and 'Skin the cat' (STC) are hanging shoulder-extension forms, meaning that the bodyweight is suspended from an anchor-point (here a bar) with the arms BEHIND the mid-line of the body. The main difference between the two variations is that the 'GH' emphasises an i...
