      The purpose isn't to build strength in competition, it's to move efficiently and quickly. From experience, it still requires a lot of strength, coordination and power to go for that long. The grip strength alone just to literally drop your entire body weight from a height and still hang onto the bar for that many reps is huge.

    • @JuiceGrooves
      @JuiceGrooves Před 7 měsíci +17

      It’s called a kipping bar muscle up. Totally different movement than a strict muscle up. CrossFit bar and ring movements tend to be more similar to gymnastics than anything else. While kipping certainly makes the movement easier and allows them to complete more reps, doing 36 of them plus running 1200m plus 63 dumbbell snatches in less than 8 minutes requires an absurd level of conditioning. I’d encourage anyone who doubts the difficulty of CrossFit to try completing this workout in less than 15 minutes.

      @AndiGraz it's not about the judges correcting your form. But if you don't use proper form several things could occur, one you could cheat the reps by doing them faster and two you could severely injure yourself. In both cases the reps shouldn't count because they weren't executed properly. I personally don't think a poorly executed movement should be counted.
