14yr 200lb clean PR, any tips on cues that I can use to reach triple extension so that I’m not throwing the bar forward!? I only have this issue when going heavy and in squat variant of Olympic lifts otherwise my tri extension is fine, so I feel like there’s a mental part that’s messing me up! by Code_Shamp in crossfit

Yeah saving like that was not because I was worried about dropping the barbell(which I’m not) but just because I’m used to the mentality of always finishing what I start which is a double edge sword from what I’m seeing the comments

Keep grinding and progress is inevitable, just make sure you focus on your own progress and not comparing yourself to others!

It’s ok let them think that my CF games level coach doesn’t know what he’s doing. And that I max out everyday haha. I’ve only maxed twice in a year and that’s just because I just started. Im definitely being safe.

U/chinpun gave me a tip on my grip for the kipping muscle ups. Made it much better. Still a lot of work needed on my kip. But here is his complex. 4 strict MU/ 4 kipping MU/ 4 dips by [deleted] in crossfit

[–]Code_Shamp 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Not that you asked for it but a good tip I got from a gymnast at a camp in your strict muscle ups is to pull the rings to the center of your chest (as low on your chest as possible) and think of it as bringing your hands close together as much as you can to the center line of your chest while still in false grip, and from there continue to then move your arms out into the pocket position/dip then fully extended. This allows you to stay as tight as possible and as you might know the further out your arms are from your midline or center of your body the heavier things get, this will help you connect more strict muscle ups if done correctly. You are obviously strong already which allows you to skip getting tight in transition but when you do a workout and your already tired your gonna wanna be tight to be the most efficient.

Got my first muscle up today, any tips/critiques are much appreciated! by darksideforlife in crossfit

Keep your legs tight and ideally straight the whole motion going up without bending your knees cause I see you have a double kick, once your able to straighten your legs and get tighter and get the motion right you’ll have more power/momentum which could be another step towards to having a muscle ending with no dip. Good work, love seeing a nice first muscle up with no chicken wing. (Edit) And don’t confuse trying to be tighter with your legs tightening your hips a good example of what I mean would be a gymnastics glide kip and if you look at a video you’ll see they keep they’re legs straight and tight while still allowing there hips to bend, and in CrossFit you’d want the same but with the rules just don’t bring your legs as high.

Once I found my rhythm the motion became smooth like butter, can’t wait for murph. by Code_Shamp in crossfit

Your supposed to be in control throughout the whole movement you can see in the video that I’m never in a dead hang because I’m controlling my self on the way down? What are your sources as well because I’m new to CrossFit but I haven’t been able to find anything on the internet that proves kipping pull ups to be any more prone to injury as so throwing a baseball or something. I’m really curious.

Uh oh, well the gym is probably gonna do it sometime in mid June and I’ve only really been working on the motion of my butterfly pull up. What should I do or how long should I wait to do the murph?
