I superset pull up with assisted pull up for maximum back pump and development.

Yea it is actually a fantastic movement, especially for warm ups. I used to utilize 4x20 of lat pulldowns as part of my wenning warmups for all my workouts, but at one point tried assisted pullups with a band since a gym buddy was doing them. The stretch and activation was fantastic. Would always throw them in randomly for some back days.

Yes. Weighted negatives with giga control has helped as well, honestly love building pull-ups. Am doing 5+/- with chin above the bar for 5 sets now.

So this is a srs acceptable cue? I use this, but I've seen people saying this method disengages forearms.

Yes. When you cannot do real pull-ups, the machine helps.

When you’re decently strong in real pull-ups, the machine is pointless. I was curious if this would change my mind, but after seeing you do pull-ups in that video (technically, not one full pull-up was done), my beliefs were simply confirmed.
