Gymnastics Progressions
- On Tuesday's we will bring work focusing on gymnastic type movements: Strict Pull-Ups, Kipping, Ring Rows, Muscle-Ups, Handstand Push-Ups etc.
- It is important to review the blog each Tuesday, as we will be running different 'strength' elements depending on where you fall. You must have an understanding before coming in.
- You need to find the focus that makes sense for you. The guideline will change depending on what we are working that day.
Level One
For those that DO NOT have strict pull-ups, or want to get stronger at strict pull-ups.
Level Two
For those that HAVE a strict or multiple strict pull-ups, but are lacking good kipping technique. This will help improve your kip, and kip strength, allowing you to string more reps together. Remember, strict before kipping is ALWAYS recommended. However, there are a few that fall in the gray area here and should consult with a coach if in question.
Level Three
HAVE strict Pull-Ups. HAVE Chest to Bar Pull-Ups. Can do at least 10 Kipping Pull-Ups unbroken.
