'Mehanical-advantage' (MA) muscle-up (MU)
Integrated BAS/SAS & Skills
•
1m 32s
THE WHAT & HOW:
The ‘MA’ muscle-up makes use of a “snapping” of the body from a position of global-extension with the chest high, as in initiating the ‘strict’ pullup, followed by a KICKING of the legs FORWARD and simultaneous shooting of hips & elbows back.
This action helps to pass EXPLOSIVELY through the transition phase, bringing the shoulders over the top of the rings in the process of this quick & coordinated transition between globally concave (i.e. ‘open’/extended structure) and globally convex (i.e. ‘closed’/piked structure).

'Strict' muscle-up variations
THE WHAT:
A bent-arm strength integration which expresses fundamental capacities & patterning already built in separate vertical-pulling & pushing projects, namely the ring 'Pullup' & 'Dip', & practice of the ‘Transition’, further to strength & patterning-development projects such as the ‘Eccentr... -
Rings forward-roll
THE WHAT & HOW:
The 'Rings forward-roll' is a dynamic skill on the gymnastics rings which goes through phases of SASS (ring-support) and BAS (both pulling back up over the rings, and pushing back into support).Its execution relies on the strength & integrity of 'false-grip' & optimal efficiency...

THE WHAT:
An integration of SAS (straight-arm-strength) in the fundamental 'L-sit' form and BAS (bent-arm strength) in a progression for the 'Bent-arm stand'. In bringing these movements together, focus is on developing the optimal mechanics & patterning to bring them together through a seamless ...
