I was thinking about making a video to address this skill set, but fortunately I stumbled across this one on YouTube. It doesn’t apply to today’s WOD. Although, recently I have seen many athletes (yes, you are an athlete) who are kipping and not using your hips. You here me say it all the time. GLUTES! This is where all your power comes from. Watch this video and learn how to practice perfectly. Stop using just your legs and start using your GLUTES to genrate the necessary power for a kipping HSPU. ~ WW
