Lately, I have been working on athletes MU’s and why I prefer the open handed technique over the false grip. That is of course in regards to the sport of crossfit. Unless you have impeccable shoulder mobility and incredible body awareness, the open handed MU is the way to go…Below are two videos which covering the dynamics of the MU’s I suggest you work towards.

Skill: 3×10 Hollow to arch swings. If you can maintain the proper position, add more velocity to each set.

Tabata hollow rock! If you break, make the rest as short as possible in any 20 second time period
Keep fighting the good fight,
