Muscle Up Progression class

This class is meant for all levels of athletes we can modify most anything BUT the class will progress to harder skills and these do require some strength in the shoulders. If you have a shoulder injury, please consider starting with the pull up class to gain some strength before moving to MU class.

I look forward to seeing you all tomorrow!!
