Foot-assisted 'Muscle-up' (FA MU)
Integrated BAS/SAS & Skills
•
1m 11s
THE WHAT:
A transitionary drill for bridging the gap between the 'Negative/eccentric muscle-up' and the full, unassisted 'Muscle-up'. Of utmost importance here is maintaining an accurate SIMULATION of the full muscle-up pattern. Toward ensuring this, simply RESPECT GRAVITY!
This means that, when assisting with MINIMAL support from the toes, it should NOT push you out of what would be the naturally VERTICAL direction of pull. A common mistake is to let the feet push the hips forward of the vertical line, which is not an accurate simulation and can lead to undesirable swinging.

THE WHAT & HOW:
The ‘MA’ muscle-up makes use of a “snapping” of the body from a position of global-extension with the chest high, as in initiating the ‘strict’ pullup, followed by a KICKING of the legs FORWARD and simultaneous shooting of hips & elbows back.This action helps to pass EXPLOSIVELY...

Rings forward-roll
THE WHAT & HOW:
The 'Rings forward-roll' is a dynamic skill on the gymnastics rings which goes through phases of SASS (ring-support) and BAS (both pulling back up over the rings, and pushing back into support).Its execution relies on the strength & integrity of 'false-grip' & optimal efficiency...
