WOD Brief

Today we are building on our pull-up density. Let’s build on great positions and then push to kipping with great technique. The intent here is to improve / establish technique and then begin transferring that into the kip.

On the strict pull-ups, think of these points:

  • -Start from a full relaxed hang and then pull as high as you can pull
  • – full grip on bar (pinky to forefinger)
  • – head neutral throughout (ears between biceps)
  • – start the movement with a scap pull up
  • – elbows in on the pull
  • – tight, straight (slightly hollow) body
  • – pull as high as possible without a change in body position

The WOD is a burner – we begin with a 1k row. This should be 12-20 seconds faster pace than your 2k pace. Upon completion you need to move directly KB swings and pull-ups.

The KB swings are American style, so straight arms nearly overhead (not directly overhead). Pull-ups are small enough reps to be done quickly. Find a consistent method you can use for every round.

Grips are great for today as they’ll serve you both on the KB swings and the pull-ups.

Have fun and go for speed today. Great way to start a Monday!
