Not to be confused with the kipping pullup

You'll recognise this one from kung-fu movies

YouTube Tutorial

Another addition to my list of skills to practice, lol.

FYI:

'Tricking is the informal name of a relatively new underground alternative sport movement, combining martial arts, gymnastics, breakdancing and other performing arts to create an "aesthetic blend of flips, kicks, and twists."'

Chet gets ever more ambitious... :rolleyes:

if I tried this I'd fall on my head. I might just about manage the one into bridge position, but that's it. I never even mastered a walkover in gymnastics at school.

You are a MAN... take that Zone diet and throw it back at Sears and tell him "f*** you, I'm eating food without counting it". Embrace the 200+ pound range, bro, hug it...

I have no explosive power whatsoever! So I shall not be trying this one! I can't even get off the ground doing a pressup!

Well that settles it then! I'm definitely not trying it if you can't do it.

I used to practise gym stuff on my bed when I was younger! Like bending over backwards into bridge, and what I call shoulder stands - no idea what the real name is. And headstands.

Don't think I can do any of those things any more.

So, could you actually do the kip up to bridge thing??
