Coach do you have a progression for the OAC?

Hey Coach, I am currently using the bower progressions for my upper body push and I was wondering if you could lay out a progression like you did with the bower for the OAC (to supplement my push work). Is this possible or should I follow the BTGB pullup progression?

 

Thanks,

Alex

My recommendation is to follow the Foundation Course rope climbing progressions. At the end of them, most students already have a OAC with little to no extra training required; as well as having avoided the severe elbow tendonitis that most people encounter during OAC training.

If ropes are currently not accessible, what would be an alternative?

Coach Sommer

Sorry. There is no alternative.

Get a rope! An 8' section if you have to, but get a rope. There is truly no substitute.
