CrossFit is a sport with its own rules so they are learning the movements for the sport they are participating in. If you're not interested then don't watch the video.

I love this video because it really shows the key differences between the regular kipping pull-up and the butterfly pull-up, thank you! :) People who don't think this is a pull-up, they are correct in that this isn't a strict pull-up using all strength...Kipping / Butterfly Pull-ups are just to allow the athlete to accomplish more work in less time (higher power) due to the assistance of the hips. CrossFit recommends athlete's having at least 1 strict pull-up before attempting anything like this...it's about combining strength and efficiency, not just focusing on one or the other.

Thank You so much for posting this video! I have such a difficult time with these freaking butterflies. I seen some of your crew and Regionals crank them out like its nobody's business. This video really helped me conceptualize how I'm supposed to move my body. Again many thanks!!

"Outside of the Crossfit community, kipping is often misunderstood as ‘cheating’, or Pull Ups done with bad form. The reality - as you are well aware - is that they are simply two different movements, requiring similar, but alternative techniques."

Definitely the best video I’ve found on progression from lipping pull up to butterflies. Thanks!

Where is the pulling part?

[@gabby7313]

Thanks for this, especially the part about being patient and the feet then hip cue.

Thanks for the video tutorial. I am really trying to learn this technique at the moment. My only critique really is that it would have been nice to see the coaching done on an athlete that is struggling with the technique. Having said that, I will use this tutorial to help me work on my pull up :) Nice to see that you were emphasizing the fact that you should work on one at a time rather than going from 1 to 10 :)

great video! the progression is great for her but if you can show this movement being done the right way or correctly, this would be an even better video so the viewers can see the differences between the wrong way and the right way

[@DavidMWard-tu4xe]

Best I've seen. Thanks!

So it's the butterfly swing not a pull up

[@waynebanthorpe]

The purpose is to do more work in limited time. The workouts call for any pull up variation. you try doing 800 metre row into 20 clean and jerk into 10 pull ups into 5 burpees for 5 rounds. then I bet you can't get past the 2nd round with those pull ups because your biceps will already be goosed..

This was really helpful, ty.
