Edgaron Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 May be true when it comes to deadlifts or squats when spine is overloaded, but definitely not in pullups when the opposite is true. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Piotr Ochocki Posted January 11, 2014 Share Posted January 11, 2014 I think people should have a look (especially after having a quick look at video you've posted) at Michael's post about grip/false grip here (not to mention that whole thread is worth reading):https://www.gymnasticbodies.com/forum/topic/6494-correct-xr-support-and-hs-guidelines/?p=85736 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would your suggestion be to just start the training from the fleshy part? Or start from wrist crook and then work it out an inch onto fleshy palm? I've found just hanging on bent wrist to be very challenging, but also providing good strength and flexibility results. But I'm a super noob for false grip work.

Piotr Ochocki Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 That's the question of right progression, doing what you are physically ready for at the moment vs not learning (unlearning later) bad habits, I'm pretty sure incoming R-course will include false grip training/progression .Also remember that you don't have to start straight away with false grip dead hang if this is bit too difficult right now, you could hang with legs supported, by changing incline of your body you have a bit of space to adjust how difficult it will be.

But I'm a super noob for false grip work.Start with the fleshy part in front of the little knob of bone, just before the crook of your wrist. In the long run using the crook of your wrist will make the rings rub up against your forearm.

Placing the false grip as described here will be the most comfortable and it won't pinch a nerve. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
