Looks really fun, but I couldn't help notice how they, even in dips, have to pump their legs up and down.

True. Looks even weirder with ring dips.

Hardly a man test; but a nice variation for those with beginning to low intermediate levels of support strength. A more reasonable challenge of advanced support strength would be to do the same thing inverted with HS walks and HSPU on the PBs.

I agree, these guys did not even complete the reps properly... However, hs walks would be MUCH more challenging! :twisted:

Khalipa is a pretty amazing athlete but quite honestly this is what happens when you only learn how to dips shitty. I know Carl Paoli works with him a bit and would probably be in shock from these.

We used to do these as a sort of PB conditioning except you start with 1 dip on each end and work up. Or for those stronger you can try to doing shrug hops or dip hops. Gabe used to get across in 2 or 3, I think.

Perhaps next time I go out to CrossfitMarin I will ask Rog or Russ if they can do it with HS walks and pushups.
