Range of Motion’s Exercise Improvement Programs have been developed to assist in improving the ability to complete the movements that people most commonly struggle with. They are designed to be cycled through over time, with each session running for only five minutes. This allows them to be completed in addition to (not instead of) your regular programming.
- Session 1: TEST: Max reps unbroken toes to bar (with no kip between each rep). If you cannot complete a single rep, record max height toes can reach.
- Session 2: Five rounds of: 15 second static hanging lat activation hollow hold, 15 second rest, 15 second hanging static arch hold, 15 second rest.
- Session 3: Complete five sets of six gymnastic kips with straight arms. Every odd repetition should be for max height without arm bend (lat activation). Use a partner to pull back on the rib cage for each max height attempt. Five minute cap.
