Cheating detected or are you giving me credit for all 4 reps?

Any form input welcome- do I need to work on form or just crank out the reps?

I’d give you them if I’m honest. I don’t know where you think you might have cheated.

thanks,

legs kick forward at the end of the last 2 reps

last inch getting the neck on the bar is the most difficult part

I'd give you credit!
Me, too.

A note of caution: Although it's hard to see in your video, it looks like you're starting your first rep from a dead hang with unpacked shoulders. Dead hang and unpacked shoulders are fine, but the first thing I'd do, along the lines of what @Anna C also mentioned, is pack your shoulder and engage your lats, and achieve a good hollow, and then do your first pullup. Just safer that way.

Is this achieved by the scapular pull (to me means -slight body elevation without any elbow movement)/ activating the shoulder

Or is that different?
That sounds like it to me.
