Absent a neutral grip option, you can slide those hands out to the edge of the bars, press through the palm, and allow for those elbows to come in. More effective push/pull, 10/10 date rating.

OMG! How as no one ever explained this to me before?! 🤯 Makes soooo much sense! Thanks so much!
Thank you so much for this...as an older guy looking to compete this certainly helps.
You had me sold with the title to this video - I need to go try this. Thanks!
why don't the assault bike designers make the handlebars more vertical for better shoulder rotation and stability
It would not make that much difference tbh
Representing some Matt Vincent I see. Good stuff my man
Yeeeaaas!!
My arm hurts on the lateral but anterior portion of at the elbow. Consequently, I always find myself trying to cup the end of the handle, but I can't get enough grip to have effective torque. My carpe radialis & brachial radialis are damaged, so I have trouble getting maximum velocity on the AB. I would love to get on a neutral grip AB. I've never even seen one - didn't even know they existed
Hey could you make a video on a short morning routine you could do daily? Thanks! Great channel!
5’2 “child” here 😂
This is why I put a spherical grip implement near the edge of the handle bars
Versaclimbers have interchangeable handles .... so maybe 'next gen' airbikes will too
What if you added a small vertical pipe section to the handles to allow for a easier nuetral grip.
Why does the Assault and Echo log work so different? I wish they were the same to keep programmed workouts consistent.
I prefer my road bike on trainer. Better fit. Optimal handle bar for me is 42cm width.
I always thought it was common sense to position the arms in the same way that you would work your lats. But that aside, the airbike is made to suck. You can't burn major calories without some level of suckage.
Very true. I always go back to the honesty of one of the instructors on FIIT before a series of 30 second sprints on the air bike alternating with dumbbell thrusters - "OK, ten seconds and we'll get into it. Get mentally ready and psych yourself up. This *will* hurt."
even I see this bike the first time in my life, I totally get what you say.
they "mimic" a straight bar which forces the hands in a weird position.
I am a product designer and totally understand what you say.
just look at track bikes. non of them has a straight bar as handle. hands are more in a "boxing-position" than a "kids push scooter position".
it still suck, lol! LOVE IT!!
i love this guy but i never know what the hell hes talking about. i think hes next level and most of us arent there yet.
he said, the handles have the wrong position (orientation) and force your hands in a weird angle where it is un-natural to operate.
they should just start making these things with a more neutral grip. it is fitness equipment. you would think that developers of these things would know this.
This bike is terrible lmao. I have one in my basement that fits. This is very helpful
Has anyone done a study to figure out what makes people better on this than others? I've probably got 50+ lbs on a lean girl in class and can squat a lot more weight yet she's constantly kicking my butt on the bike. I can't figure out why I suck so bad on the bike and wallballs and thrusters but rock on just about everything else.
like he said, it's probably how well you're "connected" to the bike
the closest example I could give is if you've ever ridden a bike erg, stand up and pedal as hard as you can then sit down and pedal a hard as you can
very consistently your wattage and cal/hr will be much higher sprint down
it's a little more complicated on the assault bike since your arms are involved though
