Pretty impressive. Lots of new techniques.

Crossfit exec: How can we get more members?
Marketing: Let the memebers use crappy form and give them olympic plates that weigh nothing so that they feel better about themselves.
Exec: What if they hurt themselves?
Marketing: Who gives a crap they paid up front.

easy, do it with a 40 lbs vest on.

@aaronb2741 shut up

@audreyperez29 they are called kip ups though. This is a disgrace to the few of us who can actually do 40 strict pullups, or even more impressive finger board pullups.

I am willing to bet that more than half of you that are bitching about the "pullups" don't even work out. Who gives a shit what they call them or how they do it? Just know that you can't do them and you're a fucking troll. True "pullups" work upper body STRENGTH, whereas "kips" work CORE and upper body POWER. Give it a rest or go workout. You know who you are.

Why are CrossFit exercise descriptions written as "pull-ups" instead of "kip ups"? I understand that they're different but then why do they write/describe them as "pull-ups"? It makes it appear as if people are doing kip ups b/c they can't do proper pull-ups. Wouldn't it eliminate confusion to simply write down kip ups in the CrossFit WOD descriptions if their intention is for people to actually do kip ups instead of standard pull-ups?

Get off their ass about the "kipups." Half of you sitting at home criticizing them are either the epitome of skinny fat or flat out overweight. Obviously, what they do WORKS. Their physiques are AMAZING.

@schoonerchow EXACTLY. thank you. people are so ignorant.
Zero pull ups were done this day.

@logan1273 I don't do crossfit and I don't do those sort of momentum pull ups (kipping pull ups I think they are called) but I am amused by all the people who comment negatively towards them saying it's all about "numbers" etc. Who cares what they do...well people like you care... it seams it's also about numbers and ego to all the haters, as they hate other people claiming to do so many more 'pull us' than them. get over it. don't watch cross-fit vids if you don't like their style.
