Hi Athletes and Coaches! Quite a while back I made a video that really didn't get much traction, BUT it's one of those videos that I send to pretty much everyone who is working on their BMU so they fully understand the way I approach the training for it. Over time, some things have changed, but most changes are quite small. The first grab of the bar position, I have lately been suggesting that people keep their feet BELOW their hips, rather than pointing their feet forward. I started asking people to do this because it is quite opposite of what the legs do on the T2B and the kipping/Bfly pull up, and the most common tendency people have is to overly lift their feet when they jump up. Another thing that I change, I change on the fly depending on the athlete's body proportions. I'm talking about the Target Reach position, which in the video states that your body should be vertical directly beneath the bar (it's just after the initial grab of the bar as the body swings forward). The change I occasionally make goes like this: If an athlete has longer legs and a shorter torso, I have them straighten their body BEFORE their swing gets under the bar. It's a small change, but instead of having their first stretched position directly beneath the bar, I ask they stretch just a little sooner. If an athlete has shorter legs and a long torso, I may ask them to straighten just on the front side of the bar. Me- I'm fairly evenly proportioned, so I stretch directly beneath the bar. There are other things, but I wanted to share this video in the case you haven't seen it, add some context, and if you know anyone who is looking to, at the very least, understand how the bar muscle-up works, you can send it to them! The rising tide lifts all boats ;) Do you know anyone you might want to invite to this group? Share them the link and I'll let them in 💪🤓 Here's the link to the video. It's about 14 minutes long, so plan accordingly... I hope you're all healthy and happy, and keep up with your training!

Hey there everyone! I am just getting this party started, and I want to keep the party going! It's the end of the year and I know that family things, holidays and LIFE can get in the way of your training but you still need to make time for YOU! Please post here! I've never loved Facebook, and Fitr's video uploads and alert (to messages) system hasn't been the greatest. I don't want to miss a message from you guys, so PLEASE POST HERE! I know, it's yet ANOTHER app, but Skool has heaps of other great groups and I think it will be a very refreshing change from the social media apps that you're likely already using. At least here you have experts running groups about things you care about and you won't be bombarded with ads! Thank you so much for being a member of whichever of my programs you are doing! 💪
