Videos courtesy of OPEN Fitness and Train FTW, respectively. Quick demos on the Burpee to Kipping Pull up and the Strict Ring Dip. Looking for increasing our ability to move our body through space today. Each minute’s work will tackle a different version of that goal. Minute one focuses on hip flexion (coming off the ground in a burpee and back side of the kip in a kipping pull ups) and extension (jump to the bar). Minute two is building raw shoulder and triceps strength. Minute 3 generating as much force as possible on a hip extension to hit a higher box jump. Finally, minute 4 focuses on core stability and shoulder strength in a handstand, as well as hip power in a kipping handstand push up.
