Is there any benefit in adding some HLL negatives from a high bar vs just training HLL on stall bars?

 

I'm pretty far from being able to do HLL on a stall bar ( maybe 75 degrees from the top).

It seems a little full range of motion might be beneficial.

you could do it on a high bar if you can find the way to not use your lats for assistance, such as a bench behind you or a person behind you as a spot

 

doing it on the stall bars delivers a pretty interesting feeling, it's about as "strict" as you can get, albeit you still have to keep in mind not to call your Lats for help

There is no benefit. Do HLL negatives on the stall bars; this will help to reinforce proper muscular activation. You can even do them with bent legs if it's too hard with straight legs.

Only if you don't have access to stall bars.
