'Passive' & 'Active' hanging 'L-sit'
SASS pull (vertical & horizontal)
•
1m 12s
THE WHAT:
Fundamental "core" and straight-arm scapular-strength (SASS) development contexts affected by lifting & extending of the legs toward a full 'L-sit' form, and holding isometrically. At the same time, it also teaches basic manipulation of 'mechanical advantage' with the legs; essentially we are creating a lever in which the legs function as the 'load-arm', and lifting/extending them further forward increases the resistance.
They are valuable to practice as foundational steps toward straight-arm strength (SAS) pulling, such as 'Front-lever' progressions or, even more simply, capacity to pull STRAIGHT-arm into an 'Inverted' or 'German-hang'.

Rings ‘Knee-raise’ to ‘Toes to rings’
THE WHAT & HOW:
Linear progressions for developing strength, patterning, and familiarity with straight-arm pulling on the gymnastics rings, affecting both straight-arm scapular-strength (SASS) and straight-arm strength (SAS).Along with variations of ‘Knee-to-bar’, this conditioning context emph...

1-arm 'passive' & 'active' hang
THE WHAT & HOW:
The two ends of the overhead-pulling kinetic chain are the hands (connecting the arms to the anchor-point), and the scapulae (connecting the arms to the body). Developing the 'Passive' and 'Active' hang unilaterally (i.e. 1-arm), follows the same progression perspective as bilater... -
1-arm Active-hang 'Reaches'
THE WHAT & HOW:
Foundational development of 'active' pulling strength, with one arm. It is incredibly important that this is built on a strong investment in bilateral (2-arm) pulling before opening as a project due to its potency and potential to injury the unprepared shoulder, due to its intensi...
