The false grip is used on the rings by gymnasts who want to increase mechanical advantage. By eliminating the lever created by the wrist, an athlete can be more efficient on the rings. The muscle-up, which is not considered a highly rated skill in gymnastics, is a staple in CrossFit. And the false grip is essential in developing the muscle-up.
