Kipping Muscle Up
A 200-characters-or-less explanation of the exercise.
Instructions
- Start hanging from a pull-up bar with a grip slightly wider than shoulder-width apart.
- Swing your legs forward to initiate a kipping motion.
- Pull your chest toward the bar, then transition by flipping your wrists on top of the bar as you drive your chest over it.
- Push down on the bar to press yourself upwards until your arms are straight overhead.
- Return to the starting position with control, reversing the movement.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Using excessive leg movement instead of relying on upper body and core strength.
- Failing to secure a grip on top of the bar during the transition phase.
- Poor timing between the kip and the pull phase, leading to inefficient movement.
