I have been weight training for several years, I just started with crossfit training and we had a Toes to Bar workout - I struggled so bad. I cant wait to try this progression to improve on my technique. Thank you!
Man watching these videos has helped me tremendously at crossfit especially sharing how to progress into the movement step by step! Thanks a million #crossfittilIdie
@@paradisocrossfit1 Why in CrossFit do you not do reps properly? Hollow body legs straight pointed toes to bar, real core exercise! Using kip for this, pull ups and muscle ups is ridiculous! You do this in a Calisthenics gym and you'd get some looks...
@@jordanalfie5197 Ah, yes, a common question. The idea is that a "strict" toes to bar is not better or worse than the "kipping" style that we teach. In fact, learning to perform the strict is foundational to becoming better at the kipping (this goes for pull-ups as well). In CrossFit, our goal is to perform the movement (touch the toes to bar) as efficiently as possible. Utilizing power from our core by moving from an arch into a hollow position does utilize less pure abdominal strength, so it is not as effective at producing strength, but it is more effective in performing higher volume reps, which allows the athlete to improve their conditioning, coordination and general athleticism. Two examples I like to use, one from weightlifting and one from gymnastics. Gymnastics - A common way for gymnasts to go from a hang position to a support position on a high bar is a glide kip, this utilizes a swing, timing, coordination, etc, but these athletes still certainly do a lot of strict toes to bar, but their goal is to perform movements specific to their sport. Weightlifting - A press and a push press. One is just using the arms and the other is untitling the legs in coordination with the arms. Again, one is not better than the other. Hope that helps clarify. Thanks again for responding!:)
@@paradisocrossfit1 Good explanation, thanks for your reply. However I do still believe that performing the movements 'strict' with the full range of motion would not only make the athletes stronger but would separate the strongest/weakest in competition!
@@jordanalfie5197 LOL so you didn't read! IT IS A FULL RANGE OF MOTION! You can do all the strict TTB that you want, but in a competion if you perform strict TTb you will finish when all the other competitors are already at home. The ones who perform Kipping TTB are NOT the weakest competitiors.
by far one of the better "how to" for toes to bar
Thanks for your support!:)
Fitness with Dal P i can agree

Very helpfull
You're welcome, thanks for commenting!
how often should I do these exercises?
It depends what else you are doing in your training, but 3x per week consistently is a good start:)
Excellent.
Glad you like it!:)
It depends what else you are doing, but generally 3x per week.
Focus on good progressions and you'll get there in no time!:)
Hmm, tough to say exactly what that could be, but work on stretching your hip flexors and glutes and mobilizing the hip joint and see if that helps.
It is similar to a kang squat or the purpose of a box squat, simply prioritizing loading the posterior chain. Hope that helps!:)
excelent! +1 here
Improving is different from "get your first one"
Dont swing
man cross fit is a joke haha
Thanks for your comment! Let me know what the joke is and I'll be sure to help clarify:)
