Amber: there are lots of different subs for muscle ups. In your case, practing the transition technique from a kneeling position into a jumping ring dip is probably appropriate. The trainer in charge of whatever class you attend will be able to help you find the right sub.

If I had the talent to do so, I’d write a rock opera about the summer of 2009. It would be called “Muscle Up.”

Think “Grease” but modernized with CrossFit as the backdrop.

11:58 at #115 and Muscle ups “the new style-Thomi method”; don’t know the name but it hurts

Hummmm – “the new style-Thomi method” & I missed it . I’ll be @ the 530 got in late from surf filled weekend. My shoulders & arms are wrecked from all the paddling - should make this one interesting to say the least.

Luckily nobody noticed my very near face plant on the first transition attempt. I shot straight through and out of control.

10:58 @ 72# w/ transitions – liked the new style transition much better I think it realt helps to grasp the form of a real MU

18:52 @ 72# muscle-ups are getting stronger
