• Points of Performance & Coaching Cues
-Bar Muscle-ups: Work on engaging the lats and having the arch-to-hollow position create the movement that allows for the hips to get to the bar rather than a pull with the arms. Too many people focus on pulling when they should think about the body mechanics and actually pressing themselves away from the bar then over the bar by pressing down.
-Dumbbell Front Rack Walking Lunges: Keep one head of the dumbbell on each shoulder. Elbows up, chest tall and walk with feet in shoulder width position so that you don’t end up walking in a tight rope.

• Scaling Considerations
-Bar Muscle-ups: We have multiple options we can scale to today. We can do the banded bar muscle-up, box bar muscle-up, low bar banded bar muscle-up, or burpee pull-up for scaling today.
-Double Unders: Let’s move to 75 singles today for those that do not have doubles or 40 secs of double under practice.
-Dumbbell Front Rack Walking Lunges: Move to suitcase, lower the weight, or adjust to a single dumbbell suitcase lunge.
