@drillsthenics: This technique is called Archer - Chest to Bar Pull Up and engages your trapezius muscles, lats, biceps, back shoulders, and forearms. It builds a lot of pulling strength transferable to other calisthenics skills like Frontlever, or Frontlever Pullups. However, if you want to develop your Muscle-Up strength, I recommend you to train the Hollow Body Pull-ups where the technique is different and you pull around the bar with a more engaged core but with the SAME GOAL = HIT THE BAR WITH CHEST. For summary: Archer Chest to Bar - Rectract your Scapula Hollow Body Chest to Bar - Protract your Scapula What is the perfect Pull-up for you?
