  • The false grip is crucial for attaining a strict Muscle Up on the rings because you need to pullup with the false grip to transition to the top! In this video I explain what the false grip IS, how to achieve it, and where to chalk up specifically.
    This is part of the ongoing updates I perform to my rings-routine which you could purchase here: antranik.org/get-rings-routine/

    Thanks for the encouragement. I tried the false grip once and said "nope that's too hard, I can't do it". But knowing that it's supposed to be really hard at first makes me realize I'm normal and I should keep trying.

    • @AntranikDotOrg
      @AntranikDotOrg  Před 6 lety +1

      Orww good question! Chalk helps increase the friction and thus grip between your hands and the rings which is why gymnasts use it. In wooden rings most people find the wood to feel good enough to not need chalk but if your palms ever get sweaty at all it's very helpful.

      @AJ-ud1ui Před 5 lety

      Przemysław Bro I actually don’t know. It’s just my “intuition” saying to me that the wooden rings may have more friction than the plastic ones. I never had a strong false so I have not yet known if false grip is possible on the plastic rings without putting tape and/or chalk.

    • @radicalratretro
      @radicalratretro Před 5 lety +1

      Aristedes Jose Jr. Aquino yeah, i just checked some online comparisions plastic vs wood and everyone recommend getting wooden rings for better grip. They are also used by professional athletes. And i have same issue as you - my hands are just slinding. Can't even imagine holding false grip with slightly sweating palms. I'll probably get one pair next week, so i'll let you know if there is major difference

    Would you say that doing negative pull ups / arch hangs with rings can be done / is beneficiary without having mastered normal pull ups?

    • @AntranikDotOrg
      @AntranikDotOrg  Před 5 lety +1

      Absolutely! Negatives or arching-hangs on rings or bar, doesn't matter which apparatus you use. Exercises done "under" the rings are similar in intensity/challenge to a bar. However, exercises done "over" the rings (support holds, planche, shoulder stands) are 10x harder than the bar.

    Considering the time it takes to adapt to the pain, would you recommend to a beginner in calisthenics to work very early on his false grip? Right now I'm working on simple pull-ups and push-ups, but I'm afraid I'll regret not working early on my false grip when I'll be ready for the muscle up.

    • @AntranikDotOrg
      @AntranikDotOrg  Před rokem +1

      Yep, false grip is definitely one of those things that take a long time to develop and there's nothing wrong with starting to get used to the hang early on. Doing it at the end of your workout is good as it won't interfere with your strength work.
