one arm rafter chin-ups

Recommended Posts

this came up in the muscle ups thread and thought to start a new thread for those who enjoy training pinch grip with bodyweight. This is a cool new obstacle at my ninja gym. It's set at an angle maybe 45 degrees but not sure.

Super strong, I wish I could do that :D

 

Have you tried that salmon ladder with one arm? Is it possible?

thanks man, I haven't tried but I will one of these days. Geoff Britten did it (there's vid of him on youtube) and he told me it's relatively easy if you do them kipping with a straight arm. I want to do it without kipping one day from elbow at 90 degrees. I did manage to do something similar but need more height to do the salmon ladder this way:

Man, youre somethin else! Cant wait to see you on ANW!

thanks brother! I appreciate the support. I 've worked really hard the past year and I feel stronger every day and definitely ready for ANW8 qualifiers (should start in March-April, we are still waiting to find out locations/dates)but still feel that I have long way to go for accomplishing many of my goals in grip, climbing and obstacle course training.

That is super amazing! cool looking gym as well

thanks guys, ninja warrior training is always fun! about the rafter one arm pullup: I feel that any grip guy that can do one arm pullup can also do the one arm rafter pullup at an angle like that. My pinch is not that impressive but I've been really working on it the past month.
