RC/PE16 - Stuck upside down!

Hey coaches,

I'm just doing half of the movement for now, as I am still learning the movement pattern.

At 4 seconds in you will see I get stuck upside down, and unable to continue into support position: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BsDRPj2xQCo

Thanks!

Keep your chin by the bar as you pull your legs towards your face. As your body rolls over the bar, "shift" your wrists, or rotate your hands around and on top of the bar so they are no longer curled underneath.

Thanks Jeffrey! I get the movement now:

PS: Felt like a kid again

Nice work!

Quick question; in this progression is the foward roll optional? According to btgb book, you can either roll forward or drop back straight down. I understnd in the naner progression the forward roll is required.

Reason I ask is, because then this exercise becomes a pull over + the eccentric part of a muscle up - which I guess would have its benefits too.

Thanks!

Hey Aways, rolling forward is required.

Hey coaches! This was my last set (5 total and a few failed ones), so there was some fatigue, but what do you think overall: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6XGHO-Z6AZA

- The last two forward rolls were a little fast because fatigue kicked in which caused loss of some strength for full control..

Thank you!

They are good...of course resting in between reps takes off some tension...and fatigue.
