2-WEEK BAR MUSCLE-UP CLINIC

Sessions on April 27th and May 4th - 6-7 pm

Take your pulling power to the next level and unlock one of the most dynamic skills in gymnastics and functional fitness. This 2-week Bar Muscle-Up Clinic is built for athletes who already have strong kipping mechanics and are ready to convert that power into smooth, efficient bar muscle-ups.

Prerequisites:
Participants should be able to perform:

  • Consistent kipping chest-to-bar pull-ups

This ensures you have the necessary pulling strength, coordination, and body control to safely begin muscle-up progressions.

What You’ll Learn:
Throughout the clinic, we’ll break the bar muscle-up into its essential components and help you bridge the gap between chest-to-bar pull-ups and getting over the bar:

  • Advanced kipping and swing mechanics (hollow/arch efficiency)
  • Hip drive and timing for maximum elevation
  • The turnover: pulling around the bar vs. just up to it
  • Bar path and body positioning for a smooth transition
  • Drills to eliminate common faults (early arm bend, looping, etc.)
  • Progressions and accessory work to build strength and confidence

Program Structure:
Each session includes a structured warm-up, targeted skill development, drill progressions, and coached practice time. Athletes will receive individualized feedback and actionable cues to accelerate progress both in and out of class.

Who It’s For:
This clinic is ideal for intermediate athletes who can consistently perform kipping chest-to-bar pull-ups and are working toward their first bar muscle-up—or looking to refine and link reps more efficiently.

Outcome:
By the end of the 2 weeks, you’ll have a clear understanding of the mechanics, improved timing and coordination, and the tools needed to achieve or improve your bar muscle-up.

2-WEEK RING MUSCLE-UP CLINIC

Ready to level up your gymnastics strength and unlock one of the most sought-after skills in functional fitness? This 2-week Ring Muscle-Up Clinic is designed for athletes who already have a solid strength foundation and are looking to refine technique, build efficiency, and confidently perform ring muscle-ups.

Prerequisites:
Participants should be able to perform:

  • Chest-to-bar pull-ups
  • Strict ring dips

These movements ensure you have the baseline pulling and pressing strength required to safely and effectively progress.

What You’ll Learn:
Over the two 60 min sessions, we’ll break down the ring muscle-up into key components and systematically build it back together:

  • Efficient kip swing mechanics and rhythm
  • Transition technique (the most common sticking point)
  • False grip development and application
  • Timing and coordination drills
  • Strength progressions and accessory work
  • Scaling options and individualized feedback

Program Structure:
Each session will include targeted warm-ups, skill drills, strength work, and guided practice. Athletes will receive hands-on coaching, cues tailored to their specific needs, and drills to continue practicing outside of class.

Who It’s For:
This clinic is ideal for intermediate athletes who are close to achieving their first ring muscle-up or looking to clean up inconsistencies in their current movement.

Outcome:
By the end of the clinic, you’ll have a deeper understanding of the movement, improved technique, and a clear path toward achieving consistent, efficient ring muscle-ups.
