| HANDSTAND NEGATIVE |
.
Working the negative is a great way to build strength for a #presshandstand AND CONTROL for any handstands!
.
Shown from easiest to most difficult:
•tuck
•straddle
•pike
.
KEY POINTS:
•Compression is key.
•As you lower, tuck pelvis & then tuck ribs toward belly button.
•Press thru ground as you are lowering to create tension which will help keep elbows locked out.
•Flexibility & handstand control is needed.

| MUSCLE MEMORY |
.
How many times do you warmup the snatch or split jerk with a PVC? Probably too many to count.
.
♂️Gymnastics skills require the same muscle memory drills!!!Jumping up to the rings & expecting your body to know what to do is absurd.
.
The athlete needs to feel body positioning, timing, & tension.
.
Here is a great drill that can be scaled up or down, depending on the thickness of the band.
.
KEY POINTS:
1.Start in a false grip.
2.Begin with rib down & tight core.
3.Pull rings in close to body as low as possible.
4.Transition by pressing elbows back, rings down & rib down into a deeper hollow.
5.Continue tension to finish position. Turn out of rings (at bottom) will help you build more control & strength.

|ARE YOU FRUSTRATED?|
.
THE ISSUE:
You’re failing strict muscle-up attempts due to arching in the pull.
.
THE FIX:
Easiest, most universal fix is to make sure you’re pulling in your #hollowbody when you #strict #muscleup.
.
Opening the torso and spine into extension makes you heavier and weaker. It also increases the #rangeofmotion that the #shoulder needs to travel to make it up and over the #gymnasticrings.
.
Think about the body shape and pulling position that you’re in for #leglessropeclimbs. That’s also one of your best pieces of #accessorywork for your strict muscle-up game.
.
Tag someone in your #muscleups squad that needs to be smashing strict work!

|PULLING WEEK|
It’s no secret that all things #CrossFit Gymnastics require a great amount of pulling strength. We will focus on different pulling variations so you work all muscles! Not just biceps, or just lats.
This #strict #butterflypullup requires a tremendous amount of strength & control.
Strict pulling strength doesn’t have to just be pull-ups. We are excited to share some great drills with you guys.

|Ring Muscle-up Transition Fault~
.
A common fault we see in the muscle-up is losing tension in the upper body during the transition.
.
As you transition over the top you have to begin PUSHING down on the rings.
.
If you notice the angle of my elbow is at a 90 degree, most people transition by throwing the shoulders over the rings and lose activation in their lats and end up missing or catching very low.

|HSPU TECHNIQUE |
......
HSPU cues - tuck hollow!
** this technique is helpful for those just starting to learn kipping hspu- athletes who have tremendous strict strength behind hspu don’t need as aggression of a hollow (you may see more of a frog kick w games athletes).
......
When learning hspu this is an efficient way to explain and perform a kipping hspu
BUT remember...STRICT BEFORE KIP!
.....
KEY POINTS
1. grow tall at start by pressing thru ground with palms to open shoulders and pull belly button slightly towards ribs while squeezing glutes.
2. As you lower the back will round slightly as pelvis is tucked under.
3. Notice there is no space between lumbar and wall - this is an indication you’re in hollow.
4. Knees slightly down into tuck position.
5. Drive thru palm on way up (this will help you maintain tension) as hip drives open.

•Want a beautiful ring muscle-up?
Who wouldn’t?!
.
It takes dedication and diligence to build the foundation - but in the end it will be worth it. .
Be relentless in your pursuit and demand more of yourself as a coach or athlete. It will payoff in the long run.♂️
