90 second kipping pull up test
Hi Brutes! Today we are going to talk about kipping pull-ups and giving you the tools to decide whether or not you should be doing them. If you shouldn't be doing them it's important you know why so that you can make the appropriate changes and get back to them!
The Easiest Way to Write Better Programming
We all have the best intentions when we start tapping the keyboard in an effort to increase fitness across broad time and modal domains for our athletes and ourselves. But is what we are doing really constantly varied, or is it a repetitive version of a group of varied movements?
Triple-Dog dare you- Brute challenge 1
The workout is: 30 Dumbbell Clean and Jerks for time with 33% of your bodyweight in each hand. *athletes need to round up
Dip and Drive
The jerk dip can be one of the trickiest movements in weightlifting for a number of athletes. Once you are able to master the descent and change of direction to drive the weight overhead, you can see huge improvements in all of your overhead lifts that require a dip.
A Protocol to Increase Hip Flexibility
A beautiful Squat is a beautiful thing, so improving yours should be something you are working on, or are about to start working on.
Never Sacrifice Technique for Added Weight
Typically, around 90% technique begins to break down during the Snatch or Clean and Jerk. Periodically, your training should be dedicated to technique work in which the intensity is lowered and volume is increased.
