Get our #1 movement
Is this also good for strengthening the wrists?
Nice video mate
this is hard, but I've found that you can train this unilaterally by hanging off one false grip fist and one neutral grip, (then changing when you've reached your current max)
How the hell do you scale trying to hang? I tried doing the first progression with having your fingers out splayed. I can't even get my wrists to hold.
does it require forearm strength?
5 stages of the Muscle
Some.great tips there for me, thanks for sharing!
Is it safe to hang in false grip almost everyday?
is cool if i dont have chalk
Short, informative and super helpful. Thanks mate!
The best movement canal- i lov it !!!
Could you mase press to handstand tutorial ?

recently I discovered for
doing a muscle up is easy. you just need the technique
Niceeee thxxx
Your momentum driven muscle ups kind of suck. But your slow muscle ups are flawless! Very interesting.
THANK YOU!!! I’ve been doing kipping muscle ups for a long time and have never been able to do a strict non kipping muscle up. I’m able to do 20+ kipping muscle ups In a row and have tried so many ways to train just to do one strict one but was never able. I tried your grip and the very first attempt I did it! I was so shocked it worked!! I was only able to do one but that’s a start and for my very first try with that grip I’m super happy! Seriously thank you for the tip, goes to show that technique is definitely key!
thumbs up is Geek Climber brought you here
0:57 sheesh that’s tough ?
does this guy speak like Woody Harrelson or is it just me?
best false grip video EVER !!!
thanks dude from 2011 for making the best, simplest video on this ever
Mad Scientist.
That was the VERY BEST video tutorial I've watched so far for the false grip. An IMMENSE thanks to you, sir. I was stuck for more than a week trying to do anything with a false grip, reading several sources, to no avail. Although it is, as they said in the other comments, quite painful, I managed to do 5 pull-ups with false grip on the bar, next I am trying on the rings. I've noticed that using the chalk is quite important also...
I feel like I'm peeling off my forearm skin trying to learn false grip. Not giving up tho
Awesome thanks!
Years ago I did calisthenics with a false grip on the rings. Except, I didn't know what a false grip was, and I did all the movements like in the video... When I realized my mistake (8 months later), the real false grip was easy thanks to the Popeye forearms I developed.
this is extremly hard to do, i can do chin up version where the finger was pointed at me without any problem but struggle to even do the pull up version that you currently doing. Any idea why is that? Do you have any suggestions?
One question tho: when hanging myself with a false grip, I cannot ever keep my arms straight, they stay slightly flexed. Is that expected? If I did, I lose all support on the wrists and slide from the bar.
Just to clarify: so a false grip you are actually pressing down on the bar, ring, etc with your wrist tendons?
I've tried it just now,and it's hurt as hell to hang...lol
Bonecrusher27WTF, it's where you grip [whatever you're gripping] but your wrist is about as high up as your knuckles, unlike the neutral position of a dead hang where the wrist is directly beneath the knuckles.
nice. I can MU on bar, but couldn't even knock out a pull-up with that gripless false-grip.
THere's an old grip training exercise where you hold a small ball (like a tennis ball) in the palm of your hand and hang or do pull ups from the position holding the ball forces your wrist into. Is that applicable here?
thank you - that was very helpful
This just seems super unhealthy for my tendons. I have tendonitis, so I'm very wary of trying this
Thank you, today i decided to start working on false-grip and said "before i do a ton of research, maybe Paoli has a video..." LO AND BEHOLD, 3 VIDEOS.
Couldn't agree more bud its agony
This is definitely NOT COMFORTABLE, but if you can work through the pain, will help tremendously with Muscle up progression. I also agree 100% with Claudio at the top there!
be able to do 10-12 chest pullups-
> cant even hang with false grip --> feel weak and cry yourself to sleep1:05 thanks for the honesty and the heads up! A feel a lot better now!!
Thanks bro
nope just hurts like shit when you start
Gg u still active bro?
no. none at all..............
By far the best false grip vid/explanation I've found.
This is super painful
thanks for a really great video!
Going to try this a low parallel bar to work way up
