Just checking in with everyone. I wanted to let you know the next gymnastics class will be on Sept 8th and I am planning to go over muscle ups. There is always a lot of interest in this class but not always a large attendance.
Guidelines to be able to do a muscle up vary but a starting point would be to have at a minimum three strict ring dips and three strict pull ups. With the programming we have been doing I think there are a lot more people in our gym that are close to this goal.
If you want to learn the basics and start to build up some muscle memory for this movement we will do them banded. For this you just have to be able to support yourself on the rings not necessary to have the 3 and 3 listed above. Then for those who are ready we can do some form practice on the low rings then get it up onto the high rings for a few sets.
I also wanted to know what people think about have a quick gymnastics based WOD at the end of the skills work. Sometimes people come straight from a Sat workout but for those of you who don't or would like to do a different sort of WOD it might be fun.
Give me a shout out either here or on Facebook. See everyone in a few weeks!
