Pull-Up Progression Clinic this Saturday from 11 to 12!
Tomorrow's WOD:
Rest Day
We all know that the kipping pull-up is an essential CrossFit skill to have. The kipping pull-up allows us to to keep our work production high--it allows us to efficiently move a load (our body) from dead-hang to over the bar in a short period of time. There is no doubt that kipping pull-ups improve strength, but only to a degree. The kipping pull-up is certainly not as valuable to strength gains as working dead hang pull-ups!
On Saturday, June 13th from 11a.m. to 12p.m. , we are offering a free seminar covering a pull-up progression that will help to build the strength necessary to do dead hang pull-ups. We will cover three progressions: working the negative from chin-over position, lock-offs from chin over position, and band assisted pull-ups. This is a simple progression that can be worked into your programming two or three times a week. Don't worry if you miss the seminar, all of our trainers will be able to show you the progression and we'll be sure to have some handouts available.
Post to comments if you plan on attending.
**We have two spaces left for the Clean and Jerk Clinic with Jim Schmitz this Friday!
I'll be there
Also, I'm in for the Prather beef if you need more people. We'll take a box.
I would come if I weren't in India. =( (Of course, I am happy though, that I am in India).
Pullups are for people that don't have access to elevators. I am personally opposed to the practice of pullups and physical fitness in general.
I earlier suggested that getting Mike's head portrayed in the style of classic communist propaganda and painted on the wall would help all of us lift more. The Internet offers us something better still. While it is not cheap, there is great potential in the link below. Sing revolutionary war songs with fervor and move forward in victory.

Don't do it.
