+eljono1 The Only reason they KIP is to get more Reps. They all train Strict Pulls ups/ Muscle ups, but kipping allows them to get their chest/chin to bar More and in doing so they get more WORK done which equals more REPS.
They train with mostly strict, but when it comes to do with things like this speed is the biggest factor so they do whatever is needed to do them as fast as possible.
Can you show me one video of crosfitter doing a strict muscle up in a proper crossfit WoD or warmup? I'm 100% sure strict pullups are part of the program, but I've never saw anything related to strict muscle ups. I come from a calisthenics background and am practicing crossfit for the last 3 months, and while strict pullups were explained, the only way bar muscleups were mentioned was in a kipping manner. Even more because I can bet most coaches in most boxes can't even do a proper strict muscle up. Not dissing on the sport, but strict MU really are a level above what Crossfit uses in gymnastics.
Is still can't see the hate behind this sport. I've done Power & Oly lifting along with Crossfit aswell. It's like Xbox or Playstation, they have bad and good things about them.
Love this channel, love cross fit, totally inspired by the men and women who compete. I just can’t get onboard with those “pull-ups” and I reeeeeealy struggle with the judging. So many athletes getting robbed.
Crossfit HQ..., you are in notice..., your broadcasting is awful. To not be able to watch this video in the US is a clear indication that you need professionals running your efforts. I thought this year would be a step ahead, but the terrible broadcast transitions and microphone drops continue. Couple this with the inability to watch consistently and you now have a die-hard fan that is very, very frustrated and disappointed. It's just not that difficult to move beyond amateur hour.
When the trolls say things like, "What is the point of CrossFit? Why make yourself tired for no reason?" Excuse me? Why the hell does anyone do track, gymnastics, football, or any other sport? To be fit and win.
Can someone please enlighten me on why the graders are allowing them to get away with those? Where I come from, that's just a bad fuckin' pull up. I guess i just don't understand all this cross fit stuff yet..
Saturday night consisting Cross fit games! I like during the break Swiss DJing getting the crowd hyped and interactive during the break! Let's keep pushing💪#2021#SigningOff
Is it just me, or is it ridiculous that they have volunteers standing in the aisles to protect the competitors from the audience? If they were that worried about the entrance, why not have the competitors walk out from the bottom.
AndreasTube because they would need to get off to jump up every rep. you don't think that amount of pull ups + transitions to muscle ups will test your forearm strength and grip?
chinguidinsky They do mix things up. The cool thing about crossfit, however, is that pretty much any kind of exercise can be considered "crossfit". The goal is to be well rounded in fitness so that nothing comes as a shock. Need to run? Got it. Need to life a bunch of moderately heavy items? Got it. Need to get up a wall? Got it.
First, the injury rates (self reported) for Crossfit are lower than for running and around the same as for Olympic lifting and gymnastics. There is a bias towards shoulder injuries, but that's to be expected. Crossfit is a sport, and sports involve injuries. If you really want to screw up your joints, try basketball or soccer. Otherwise, stick with your nice "safe" programming that doesn't transfer nearly as well into the world outside of a gym.
+Swaggy Timberlake Ever move a bunch of mulch or gravel? How about clean out a garage or attic? Carry in groceries? Load a truck? Seems like in the outside world lifting things, light or heavy, many times is a pretty common event.
The muscle ups themselves are impressive, but what does it accomplish when you use momentum for pullups? It's the jerky motions that cause so many injuries. If you can do it safely then fine, to each his own, but you seriously need someone who knows what they're doing to show you proper form, and judging by the moves with this it would take awhile
I love how crossfit as a brand and form of education was embarrassed when athletes dominated so well while being new to crossfit. Thus showing how ignorant the community of worshipers was. (Froning, Annie, Katrin)
you forgot to mention to the troll when he stupidly wrote black people aren't athletic, that they actually dominate athletic, I mean Usain Bolt and Mo Farah were black last time I checked and they dominate their athletic fields.
I like crossfit but doing snatches side by side is just dangerous. It could easily bounce off another barbell and seriously injure someone.. athlete or judge. 5:30 was close. Safety before everything
1:06:05 The DJ is amazing!!! Beautiful bodies dancing on the ranks, too. Great show, it really gets me going =-) Just wanted to appreciate this side event. Don´t need to mention that i love the main event though.. 2015 CF Games here we go!!!
+William James CrossCult sells their own supplements and other bullshit products and encourages their members to avoid veggies and dairy products amoung other things I won't go into.
Ok. I can sort of accept the muscle ups. I've seen so much of that that I stopped caring. But what in the hell kind of pull ups are those... Seriously...
But doesn't that say something about the pull ups if you can do "100s". Honestly, it looks like they are using momentum to cheat pull ups. I'm just waiting for the dislocated shoulder injury lol
No reason at all?!?!? Obviously you have never experienced how training makes you feel. I can promise you it is the greatest feeling you will ever know!
