More Practice

JT Scott | 01/24/2016 | 3

No, it’s not strictly speaking a ring dip, but it’s a great example of Nick showing good position and stability at the bottom support position.

We’ve been getting good feedback lately about the amount of opportunities we’ve had to work on Double Unders, and today’s another one of those chances. (Speaking of feedback, keep those survey responses coming!) Consistent practice – pushed by the requirement to have them – leads to great improvement, and a lot of you are seeing those doubles get better. For those of you who haven’t, ask JT about some no-loop plane drills (to debug consistent breakdown points in your DU chain), or “state based learning” (which is a good method for overcoming “Vanishing DU Syndrome”).

The WOD also includes Ring Dips in low quantity, so if you have a few this is also a great day to push yourself to get them done. If you have good ring dips and good DUs, this one is a chance to rack up a TON of rounds, and my advice for you is to attack the bear crawls with maximum intensity to get good speed. If one of these strengthy or skilly movements is a sticking point for you, this is a great day to use your AMRAP time to attack your goats and get in a lot of practice in aid of getting better!

Strength:
Push Jerk
3-3-3-3-3

WOD:
AMRAP 15
50′ Bear Crawl
6 Ring Dips
