Notes: Here are two descriptive quotes to assist athletes with establishing a mental concept foundation for learning and developing their kipping Pull-up technique.
“The kipping pull-up is a little more sophisticated than the deadhang pull-up. Done correctly, it involves a hip snap that radiates up the spine and into the arms, effectively lifting the body with minimal upper body pulling.”–John Sifferman
“Kipping is whole-body, athletic, and demands coordination and agility. It is plyometric, requires flexibility of the shoulders, allows for rapid cycle time, and in totality represents an essential, unique, and powerful core to extremity motor recruitment pattern.”–Greg Glassman founder of CrossFit
