Instead of practicing cycling our barbell movements today, we’ll be cycling back to toes to bar after each movement in our chipper.  The strength piece will help prepare us to get through them smoothly and with an even rhythm.  Much of the work might seem basic, but mastering these positions will be key to a kip that makes them easy.

    Couldn’t quite keep the rhythm with full toes to bar so I ended up doing all the set at knees to chest.

    Some of those were toes near bar.
