Kipping Pull Up – Parkour Training and Conditioning Exercise
May 26, 2010 · Print This Article
The nature of parkour calls for many muscles to work together to maximize power output. When muscles are isolated or improperly synchronized, power, speed, and energy are lost. This is why in parkour, kipping pull ups are more applicable than dead hang pull ups. Kipping pull ups teach the entire body to work together to pull itself up in the fastest way possible. By mastering the kipping pull up, laches, underbars, climbing, and other similar movements will be improved.

your name is like mine!
sorry, but anyway great video although i dont understand… aren’t these really easy? im just wondering…
@WhoaThatWasAwesome They should be, that means you’ve got about as much rhythm as a dead fish.
lol…i don’t think i am getting this right. Cuz i can do the same amount of kipping pullups and regular pullups. Shouldn’t kipping be easier
without balance is harder
you want an other great parkour video look up “Parkour Temecula”
@lim Kipping pull-ups are the easiest pull-ups other than jump pull-ups. Muscle ups are much more difficult.
@lim1819 muscle up is much harder
muscle up is definitely more difficult !

wat doo they help u do
If you want to improve your grip, get you a weight plate, 25lbs is great. Make sure its got a cut out of some sort as weel as a ridge on the outside edge. With your finger tips grip around the ridge and then hold the plate, you can add in shrugs for your traps with this as well. Then using the cut out pass it around your body clockwise 10 times and then again counter clockwise. I do 3-5 sets of this every weight training day and 3 sets of plate pinch shrugs on back day.
Don’t do parkour, but I do alot of other training. Get a set of resistance tubes/cables make sure they will provided enough resistance though. Strap them high and then sit down legs wides and back straight. Pull the cables back as far as you can. Go one set wide, one set shoulder width, and one set to the chest. Always to failure. Do 3 times a week and you’ll be knocking out pull ups in no time. I went from not even doing a half to doing 30 in 2 months.
both, but it works better with overhand.
Can you do the kipping pull up with overhand and underhand grips, or just with the overhand grip?
I just want to thank you for this technique. It helps me to do my first proper muscle up. Now I can do 3 in a row with excelent technique. Thanks again!!!
try the inverted row. there is a video in my youtube account.
is there another exercise i could do to train the right muscles?
hi im jack, a beginnning traceur from the netherlands.
ive started parkour about 3 weeks ago but i can’t do a single pullup
Keep up the good work. I don’t practice kips, myself. Just dead hangs. Either way is better than nothing!
