Check out these videos of Ryan's flat tuck back lever, Leona's alternating kb cleans (20 lbs/hand) and Jon's negative on his muscle-up. These are all excellent examples of progressions. Once Ryan can hold his flat tuck back lever for 60 seconds he can then move onto the back lever straddle. Jon has a muscle-up but it is inconsistent. His negative is very controlled. Work the negative and your muscle-up will come. Note that there is no kipping with the muscle-up.
Leona has a great kb clean. She turns her palms out at the bottom and before she fatigues she keeps the kettlebells and elbows close to her side.
Nice work!
wow!! Great work guys, Leona I loved your casual kb cleans there!!

ReplyDeleteCongratulations folks!
ReplyDeleteThe gymnastics progressions are difficult and take lots of practice. It is important to achieve each progression before moving on. Paying close attention to detail in each progression will allow you to be efficient and successful in the movement.
Last night the question was asked, "when do we get to do the kipping muscle-up?" If one can do a controlled movement - a static muscle-up, pull-up, etc. - the kipping version is quite a bit easier.
In addition to those who already have the movement down, we have a number of flux members who are well on their way to achieving the static muscle-up.
It's thrilling to watch each success!
