Thank you for posting Michael. He uses bad(different to what Scooby suggests) form though doesn't he. Seems really jerky and fast?

bad form and faster reps isn't the same. well, there gets to a point when you're just bouncing up and down that it does become bad form, but not here.
i've tried those upside down pull-ups lol. remember at that topic where you wanted to know bodyweight trap exercises? yeah, i tried what the_wolf recommended. it's hard lol.

I've done just about every one of these variations before  I think the key is to be creative. Thats how I came up with doing the 'upside down pullups' Also, this guy is definitely doing the kipping pullups incorrectly. It looks like he's trying to go into a tucked front lever, if anybody knows what that is This is what I think of as a kipping pullup CrossFit - Kipping Pull-Ups has anyone ever heard of doing pull ups with one hand over grip and the other under grip. never done them. saw it done the other day?
Yea, apparently its supposed to work the muscles emphasized in pullups on one side and chinups the other side. I find them not more difficult than either type of grip alone

slow motion pullups and then some clapping pullups are great coz u need a balanced combination of slow and explosive movements to gain sum strength

I think Scooby explained them in the killer back workout video, but it's been ages since I've seen it.

I'd strongly suggest towel pullups for those who complain about forearm weakness.
But I won't be positive about upside down pullups. So redundant. Do upright rows (you can try variations like pulling dumbbells to sides, driving elbows backwards instead of out to sides as in traditional upright rows), high pulls, etc.

Those are ab rollouts, and he's using a weighted vest. That's Ross Enamait, resident of CT. He's a former fighter and now spends his time training and conditioning boxers and mixed martial artists.

i gotta agree with dodo on this one. along with upright rows, i get the most intense forearm pump/burn from pullups ever!
