One isn't better than the other: they train different things. A strict pullup does train muscle strength, but not explosiveness and total body neuromuscular coordination. A kipping pullup is a full body movement that has more real-world applications (hence gymnasts and traceurs and crossfitters practice them) but the apparent resistance is lighter. Best advice? Variety is key: do both.

@pam0077 I think when it actually comes to getting over stuff, like a bar or something having a grasp of the kip technique and doing a kipping MU is going to help you a lot more than trying to do a strict PU into a MU so for Parkour anyway in my opinion a kip is a valid technique for overcoming obstacles, so it doesn't necessarily mean you should throw it out, I also feel it's a good progression for people that have trouble with doing lots of dead hang PU

Why would i want to be tutored on the weakest way to strength train?

If you want to get stronger on the pull-up, do a real pull-up.

If you want to do explosive, systemic, neuro-charged training, the most effective exercise is the power clean.

Put together, they're far superior than this kipping on the swingset BS.

I think my dog can do better pullups than those.

@OneAngryAsian Actually, gymnasts purposefully avoid kipping in their pullups and will actually go as far as doing pullups against a wail in an all-out effort to avoid kipping. You can get more than enough neuromuscular coordination doing traditional deadlifts and squats in a sane range (less than 20 reps), and get the added benefits of increased CNS stimulation and hormone release. This is why crossfit is a joke beyond being an ok cardio workout.

Great tutorial! I'm trying to get a custom Goole Map started with outdoor, publicly accesible pull-up stations. If you can map some that would be great! Here's the map: tinyurl/pullup-bars!

At first I thought he was trying to move the bar.
