If all you haters are so tuff then go beat his record with momentum and stop Bitchin. Oh ya that&#039;s right you all cant beat it either way</description>

		<description>Commenting on the one minute record. Matt B. is obviously a fine athlete, with incredible strength and endurance, and should be commended highly for it. I also appreciate the effort that the Alternative Records people go to maintain the quality of the event. I do think the swinging was excessive and aids greatly in performing the pull-ups. That is why kipping in this event for instance, is not allowed. This excessive swinging is another form of gaining momentum like kipping, that was not included in the rules but clearly needs to be added. 

My question is, does he do this in the thirty minute test, or one hour test, etc, where speed is not the issue, (some saying that is why he swings so, because of the speed required in the one minute test)? Let&#039;s strive to keep this as pure as possible. Integrity should be the highest priority. That, is the only thing that makes the prize worth something.  Thank you. Take care and keep striving</description>

		<description>great job, however I do agree that he is using momentum, but it would be hard to do them as fast as he is without some momentum.</description>

		<description>Just read the comments.  Allow me to ‘Splain Lucy;
Records for leg, whipping movements: Scroll down a bit: there is a video of a guy dong 62 http://www.recordholders.org/en/list/chinups.html

Try this link:  Wow, now that is kipping.  http://rds.yahoo.com/_ylt=A0S00Mg2qD9LB5sAYAz8w8QF;_ylu=X3oDMTA4NDgyNWN0BHNlYwNwcm9m/SIG=12kev4rdm/EXP=1262549430/**http%3a//media.crossfit.com/cf-video/CrossFit_Kipping1-Concept.wmv

Movement or momentum,  recruitment, whatever you call it is used all the time in all kinds of events.  Take the Long jump for example.  Athletes do not stand in one spot and jump as far they can, (although that used to be an Olympic event), but they propel themselves down a runway and fling their body into the air and windmill their arms, hitch kick legs etc to gain distance.  Would you say that is cheating?, of course not, it is within the accepted rules.  Of course just standing and performing a broad jump could be considered much stricter and a purer form of power, it is no more athletic than a running long jump.  The same holds true for a running High jump, using momentum and techniques to gain height over the bar, instead just standing next to the bar and launching oneself up an over.  How about shot put, with the spinning technique?, Discus, hammer, pole-vault?   Why not just throw the shot from your knees if you actually want to see who has the strongest arm.
The point is we can argue these rules forever, what is considered strict to one person is not strict to another.  When you attempt to do something that requires speed and repetitiveness over a short amount of time, you can almost always find some sort of movement involved.   I can also argue that I am the only one who actually stayed on the bar for the entire minute, the others did it by dismounting and then starting up again, but hey it is perfect legal, that is apparently not a requirement. 
What happens with most athletic events  is that you attempt to set up rules; Arms fully locked out, chin crests the bar, hands even with bar, X amount of movement allowed say 12” swing, use two cameras, etc.  This way you are trying to bring credibility and integrity to the athletic achievement. 
Now I could hang and do 30 very slow and very smooth pull-ups and it would take 90 seconds or so.   I could do even more pull-ups if I employed the Cross-fit kipping techniques and leg kicks.  My pull ups and the technique employed are wholly within the rules.  You can’t satisfy everyone all the time; no matter what you do you will have critics.  Such is life, but it should never stop you from attempting to achieve your goals.   I hope I made some progress in attempting to dissect the Pull-up and how and why it is done certain ways.  Trust me I am open to new rules, stricter margins,  I just want to make sure that whatever those rules are- they are adhered to by EVERYONE – no exceptions.  Until then, I will continue to train and attempt a few more records.  I would really like to get the hardest record of all:   100 in 3 minutes!  Which means 101 of course.    That is very difficult, about as difficult as doing 1000 pull ups in one hour if you want to compare athletic graded achievements.   Well as Co-WR holder (50 in 1 minute)  I am hoping for about 52 this year.  28/24 would be the most likely split, as I slow down while remaining on the bar for the entire minute.  The first 15 seconds =15 and the last 15 seconds about 11. Average of 1.15 per pull up. It takes about .75 to pull-up and another 4 tenths of a second to come back down to full hang position.   I was able to see Jason’s attempt on video and interesting enough we have similar body types and similar techniques.  We are also the same age.  I can tell you that he is quick!  He did two sets in his 60 second WR.  If he improves his anaerobic stamina and stays on the bar, he can certainly improve his record. 
Best of Luck everyone in 2010!</description>
