Got the bar variant 3 years ago. Time to try the ring variant of the pull over. Underestimated how much shoulder strength is needed for 360° rotation. Need stronger shoulders sans mass (or won’t make it through the straps)

a hack helping with transition practice from #frontlever > #invertedhang > #backlever using a band. Despite using the lightest band, 2X looping created too much tension vs body weight, preventing full range of motion. 💡 Ankle weights. 😉

#boxjump -ing and #pistolsquat -ting session - huge amount of work (core, leverage, balance) for a simple movement. Worth it when pulled off successfully tho!

FUN CHALLENGE: while playing video games, maintain hollow-body-hold for load screen duration 😃

A critique on video game load times demonstrated via #calisthenics - longer load times = stronger core

marrying the #muscleup with the ring roll as a dismount since I don’t have the full motion yet.

Learning the ring roll. Challenging part - getting a feel for momentum needed to maintain a midair roll without losing height - requires solid bodyweight awareness.

2nd part of the movement (muscle up) still in progress.

The ring rollover consists of a roll into a muscle up. My struggle with this move is the arm strength required to maintain a false grip through the roll so breaking it up into 2 steps to start - the roll, and the muscle up.

Trying out a challenge I found on IG - a short lower body #mobility routine at the bottom of a #squatclean . Don’t normally practice this so chose a lighter load in case of falling. Unlike the guy beside me who is hoisting my bodyweight.

Deleting the older post since this more accurately the breadth of #calisthenics skills I’ve been torturing my joints with the last few months 🤣 Still a ways to go to get where I wanna be (aka: need more shoulder/arm strength 😭 )

Blending 2 movements into 1 rep - #boxjump & #pistolsquat. Trained 2 ways with the extended foot traveling 1) around & 2) over the box at increasing height.

But forgot to train both legs 🤣

my journey so far learning the #invertedhang starting at the low rings making my way to the high, while exploring execution variations and transitions.

For #crossfitters - think farmer carry except the world is upside down.

More ring flow #calisthenics transition practice consisting of:

1) #muscleup into a …
2) ring-roll-thru, landing in an …
3) #lsit maintaining form into a …
4) #chinup to standing.

A couple of #staticholds I’ve been working on for the last little bit, slapped together into a #demoreel

Holds are by far (to me) the most taxing but #worthit if successfully pulled off for the bad@$$ factor 😂
