Can you believe that February has already come and gone? It is the time to retest your muscle ups, pullups and dips! Please make sure to give your scores to your coach to record. What gym location will be taking home the cup this month?
Just a reminder of what we are looking for on the movements:
Here are the stipulations:
- If you have your ring muscle up, you must test the movement for your score, you are not to opt out and do max pullups and/or dips
- You can do max pullups and max dips for your score or choose just one.
- If you are using assistance, the goal is to decrease the amount of assistance in the month
- The goal of the month is to get as many athletes in your gym doing muscle ups or pullups or dips
Movement standards:
- Muscle ups must begin with full extension of the elbows at the bottom of the rings with a full turnout (non- false grip allowed) and finishing on the top with full extension of the elbows.
- Pullups must begin with full extension of the elbows and finishing with chin over the horizontal plane of the bar at the top.
- Ring dips must begin with full extension on top of the rings, move downward (hips lower as well) until the shoulder is below the top of the elbow and finishing again with full lock in the elbow with full control.
