Strict Pull Up Gate Before Kipping
Strict pull up gate before kipping requires five to ten controlled strict reps before high-volume kipping—momentum without strength loads shoulders in metcons.
Strict pull up gate before kipping means earning five to ten controlled strict pull-ups—full hang, no hip heave—before adding kip swing to high-rep metcons. Strict capacity builds lat and scapular strength that carries the kip; skipping the gate loads shoulders with momentum you cannot control when fatigued.
Use negatives and scap pulls if strict reps are zero. Kipping with weak strict bases drives elbow and labrum stress in chipper season.
Tempo strict work belongs in warm-ups even for advanced athletes.
