How to Do
How to Do Kipping Pull-up
The kipping pull-up should begin with good posture to avoid injury. Brace the spine by drawing your lower abdomen inward. Your core muscles should be activated to support your posture as you perform the exercise.
If any pain is experienced, immediately stop the kipping pull-up.
Beginning
Beginning Pull-ups with Kipping
1. Jump up and grab the bar just outside your shoulders from your standing stance beneath the bar.
2. When you wrap your thumb around and beneath the bar, it helps to keep you from falling when your grip weakens.
Movement
Pull-ups with Kipping Movement
1. To send your body backwards, start in a tight, hollow stance with your arms pulling down and away from the bar.
2. Close the hip angle as little as possible (bringing your legs up to 90 degrees).
3. Your shoulders and core should control the kip, not your legs swinging back and forth at the hip.
Benefits
Pull-ups with Kipping Benefits
The kipping pull-up is effective because it transfers the pull-initial up's labor to the rest of the body, but those forces must still pass through the bar and shoulder during the swing's arch. The shoulders then act as a spring, storing force before transferring it back into the bar and body for upward momentum.
