Strict Muscle Up clinic

Sunday 9/22

I will be giving a clinic style class on Muscle ups. We will be going over lots and lots of ways to do transitions for the muscle ups and will hopefully have a few success stories by the end of the day.

Warm Up: Dynamic gymnastics style

Shaping:

  • Hollow hold
  • Arch Hold
  • Grip
Warming up 3 rounds:
3 Pull Ups- strict
3 Push Ups- elbows IN

Transition:
  • 4 sets of Pike turn over on the floor
  • Low Rings- 4 sets( or more) of the turn over with press out- sitting ON THE FLOOR
  • 4 sets turn over with legs raised at end- Can you wiggle your fingers- NO DEATH GRIP
HIGHER RINGS:
  • Establish false grip wiggle fingers
  • Establish grip and hanging hold 5 seconds
  • Higher rings- 4 sets Jumping Muscle ups work getting the head through quickly with elbows in

Full Muscle Up attempts/successes

** Thanks goes to Laura Galassi also a gymnastics coach for lots of great new ideas!
