The crew from GSX Athletics continues their coaching session on pull-up-bar drills and techniques. This month, they look at some more rarefied powerful pull-up variations. They work mostly on dynos (hopping between different-height bars) but also have some fun with clapping pull-ups, one-handed kipping pull-ups, and other monkeylike tricks. Try these at home! (With a spotter, please....)
