Full description and what we offer
False Grips is a patent-pending rubber platform that attaches to standard gymnastics rings (1.1" to 1.25" diameter). It's not a gym or a store—it's specialized equipment designed to fix one specific problem: the false grip is uncomfortable and hard to learn, so most athletes avoid strict muscle ups entirely.
The false grip is pulling the trigger on an unloaded gun. That's it. No ammunition, no recoil, no noise, no cost per trigger press.
Learning a strict muscle up requires weeks of false grip conditioning. Your wrists burn. Your hands tear up. You want to quit. False Grips flips this:

False Grips runs in-person clinics hosted by Pat Burke, six-time CrossFit Games athlete. Each clinic covers:
"False Grips put my wrist in a more comfortable position that doesn't wear on my wrist. Although I can do strict muscle ups without them, they're one of my favorite tools." — Anton Foss (Instagram repost)
"My forearms are toast. 15 minutes after my drill work and my veins are still poppin. I have faith these will do it!" — Posted after purchasing at Regionals
"This is the absolute best Strict Muscle Up I have ever done!" — Athlete who picked up False Grips at Central Regional
Athletes consistently report: - Significantly increased forearm, biceps, and triceps activation - Breakthrough moments in muscle up progression - Reduced wrist and hand pain during training - Ability to string multiple reps together faster - Comfort during false grip pull-ups and ring dips
As of recent changes, False Grips has partnered with Abmat to handle all future purchases. Orders should be placed at www.abmat.com—orders on the False Grips site directly will not be fulfilled.
False Grips solves a real problem: athletes avoid strict muscle ups because the false grip is uncomfortable. This rubber platform makes the false grip accessible, lets you drill the movement pattern correctly, and builds the strength progression faster. Pat Burke didn't invent muscle ups, but he made them learnable for regular athletes.
