So many PR’s! Friday Night Lights exceeded our expectations with many achieving Muscle-Up PR’s whether it was their first, or their first time stringing them or getting them in a WOD. Seeing the women get on the rings and get through muscle-ups is also a big PR for the gym in the Open.

If you are motivated to get a muscle-up then you must practice strict pull-ups, strict ring dips, strict chest-to-bar pull-ups, muscle-up progressions, kip-ups from the floor AND do a ton of false grip work (hangs, pull-ups, transitions). You cannot “will” yourself to get a muscle-up if you do not have the raw strength, skill, and coordination first. You MUST practice. A lot. You have to be diligent to work on all of the pieces, and be patient. If you try to skip any of the pieces you risk injury. Do not just jump on the rings and start flailing around. Even though we program MU progressions/practice every month, you don’t need to wait to work on the requisite skills. Put in the homework. 3-2-1 Go!
