DAILY MINDSET

“If we did all the things we are capable of, we would literally, astound ourselves.” –Thomas Edison

Sometimes we simply need to get out of our way. We are capable of so much more than we’ll ever know. What stops us – fear and doubt.

We have voices inside our head, trying to keep us safe. But waiting on the other side of that, is the absolute astonishment that Thomas Edison speaks about.

Many have the incorrect pre-disposition that this quote doesn’t apply to them. That they don’t have the natural talent, or the born ability, to reach greatness. But that thought, in and of itself, is the reason why they aren’t yet great. That thought alone will stop what truly creates greatness – passionate, unrelenting, hard work.

This quote applies not to somebody else, but you. Silence the voice that doubts, and put on the championship performance. As simple as that sounds, if we can do it, we’ll find what Edison writes about. We’ll stand in awe of what we are capable of.

TEACHING (15:00 – 30:00)

PULL-UPS

Grips

How you hold the pull-up bar can depend on hand size. For athletes with smaller hands, it might be helpful to go with the “thumb over” grip to get more surface area in contact with the steel. If you have a bigger hand, the “thumb around” grip can help secure you to the bar. In either scenario, it’s all about doing what keeps you best connected to the rig. The better connected you feel, the more control you will have. Feel out hand position during the scap pull-ups and strict pull-ups.

Kips

The kip swing starts in the shoulders and is all about keeping the body tight. The hollow hold and arch holds on the bar are designed to feel out this tight, compact body position. Keep the legs glued together and belly tight. We’ll carry that over to the kip swings that follow.

Hips

Once we have a good grip and control, the ease of pull-ups comes from driving the hips aggressively towards the bar. The hip pops are essentially pull-ups without the pull. Create the weightless moment and dial in timing by opening the hips. We’ll add it the pull and finish things off with our standard pull-ups.
