You might consider bands or chains.

I don't think he meant pulling the bar down to increase resistance, I think he just meant pulling it down tight so it doesn't leave his body at the top.
I think Eric Cressey once talked about it being benificial to pull down like that because it caused your lats to contract making them transfer more force from the ground, but don't quote me (or him, lol :p) on that.
