Tuck the knee

Nick | 07/05/2017 | 3

Leg lifts don’t always have to be from a hanging position.  In CrossFit, we see this idea in toes to bar or knees to elbow quite frequently.  But we can very easily add this element to other positions to challenge us in new but familiar ways.

Today, we’ll be working this same type of movement from ring support instead.  This will need a lot of the same compression strength that’s required for toes to bar with the bonus of working a lot of extra shoulder strength and stability.  If this seems like a lot, not to worry – we have plenty of scales as usual.
