    So you just can't get your damn toes to touch that bar, huh? I have a few secrets to let you in on - that could just be the difference between a REP and a NO REP! These tips are ones you can try right away and stop the endless swinging around, hoping for magic.
    So let's take a look at the Toes to Bar standard;
    1. Your feet (doesn't have to be toes!) must touch the bar at the same time between your hands
    2. Between reps, your feet must pass behind the vertical plane of the bar
    So with that in mind, I'll show you a few drills you can do to get some extra momentum while making sure you check the above boxes. While this isn't necessarily the BEST way to go about learning Toes to Bar (my 8 week course is!), it will definitely help if you're needing those reps to count in the short term - e.g. The CrossFit Open!

    How has this video not got more views?! I honestly tried T2B for the first time ever, yesterday. I watched this video and managed to string 8 in a row! Yeah it’s not loads but with practice I’ll defo get better! Thanks for the solid tips!

  • @RR-xb2wu
    @RR-xb2wu Před 3 lety +3

    Thanks for video! Lots of great info. I will try the tuck and flick ASAP!!!

  • @jenabouzeid9154
    @jenabouzeid9154 Před 3 lety +7

    What I am taking with me from the video is the following list:
    1. Look up at the bar
    2. Jump up, shoulders back feet forward, arch
    3. Tuck and flick
    4. Actively pull to "arch" in a gruff voice
    I can currently do one at a time (this has been the current situation for the last 4 years), but I need to consistently practice stringing them together and I think this list will help me think through the process. I will be practicing tomorrow and then completing 21.3 and 21.4 on Sunday. Thanks for all of the helpful video's!

    Haven't tried looking up at the bar, but i have a feeling this should help alot!
    Also setting bands on spotter arms slightly below the bar is another awesome idea that you showed in a different video.
    Gonna definitely use that idea as well. Thank you!

    This worked!! I was able to do 30 toes to bar (singles) for 21.3! It was so fun to be able to get this. Looking forward to trying to string them together now. Thank you!!

    @americanpetplace7318 Před rokem

    Hey so I’m fairly new to cross fit. Just 4 months new. The challenge on top of the look, tuck, kick is my hands. They’re not strong enough to hold my weight. Any ideas on how to improve grip? Is there a glove? Strap like in weight lifting?

  • @theresyayttri
    @theresyayttri Před rokem

    Does necessary to use hands straps? How does it affect the hand grip?

    Aggressive pull down of the legs to try to string 5-6 at a time hopefully without the dead swing

  • @tumilesisa7765
    @tumilesisa7765 Před 2 lety

    I tried to arch and tuck, but I failed...I think I see what I did wrong. I see after the first rep when pulling legs back you push you face in the window slightly to get the arch again.. I will try again

  • @vberg1961
