STREET PARKING TOES TO BAR PROGRAM

 

INTRO:

WHAT WILL THIS PROGRAM COVER?

This program is going to introduce you to a gymnastics-style technique of the toes to bar, which relies more on swing and momentum to make contact with the bar, rather than muscular strength. The idea is to get comfortable with a technique that will teach us to use our body as a system and include the shoulders, upper back and hips to help swing our toes to the bar - rather than lifting ONLY from the core. This will help us to conserve energy & feel more fresh throughout workouts. 

In this program, each day will consist of mobility, strength, and skill work, designed to improve your body control and awareness. You should allot approximately 30 minutes per day to complete the sessions. I encourage you to train with a mindset of quality over quantity, as HOW you move, is arguably more important than how many reps you get in.

WHAT ARE WE FOCUSING ON?
All gymnastics skills can be broken down into two main components: A strength-based portion, and a coordination-based portion.

The strength component of toes to bar, is simply getting your feet in contact with the bar. Ask yourself, “Do I have enough strength to physically lift my legs up?”

The coordination component of the toes to bar, is maintaining a correct rhythm, in order to connect reps. Think, “Can I keep this ‘beat’ swing pattern, in order to string multiple reps together?”

The idea behind this entire toes to bar program, is to train this skill from all directions— You’ve got the prescribed strength sessions, geared towards improving (*drumroll, please*) strength. And, you’ve got skill sessions, geared towards practicing the rhythm, and improving coordination.

I say this to make sure you have the correct “End Goal” in mind, when completing the skill work. 

Right now, your end goal should NOT be “Do whatever it takes to get my feet to the bar”, because that will result in a slow, single toes to bar, with no rhythm, no game-plan, and no way of stringing consecutive reps. 

Your end goal needs to be “Focus on reinforcing the ‘beat swing’ rhythm, and slowly grow the size of my positions. Eventually, I will be so confident in maintaining this rhythm, that my positions will grow so big, the toes naturally start making contact with the bar.” 

Start slow, focus on what you’re doing, TRAIN CONSISTENTLY, and you’ll feel a dramatic difference in the way you swing.

MOBILITY IN THE TOES TO BAR

If you’ve watched my toes to bar and thought, “Oh heck no, I can’t do that because I’m not flexible and my hamstrings will rip in half,” we need to talk about how hamstrings influence our toes to bar technique.

Do you need a basic level of hamstring flexibility to do a full toes to bar? Absolutely. Do your legs need to be as straight as mine during your toes to bar? NO!

Unless you’ve been doing gymnastics and stretching for 20 years, I do not expect you to keep straight legs as we swing. Having a little knee bend is going to be just fine.

Try the simple mobility kicking test described in the video. If you can touch your toes and you can hang from the bar for 30 seconds, you are ready for this program!!

If you’re not able to tap your toes or hang from the bar, I recommend spending some time stretching and improving your grip strength. Once your able to pass the kicking and hanging tests, it will be time to return to this program.


RHYTHM FOCUSED TOES TO BAR

RHYTHM FOCUSED TOES TO BAR? WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?

Coordination, in the simplest terms possible, is how well you can communicate the thoughts and ideas in your brain to your body, getting your body to do exactly what you want.

For the majority of new gymnasts, coordination is much more challenging to develop. 

Now, looking specifically at the TTB, the strength component is being able to hold onto the bar, and lift the toes to the bar.

The coordination component is the rhythm- being able to connect consecutive reps.

So, if we focus our attention and energy on the rhythm— the hardest part of the skill— early on, you’re going to have a much more successful time training because we’ve nipped the hardest part of the toes to bar in the butt, early on.

This technique is commonly referred to as the “efficient” method of executing toes to bar, because we are essentially using our swinging momentum to lift our legs to the bar, which relies less on muscular strength and allows us to conserves much more energy, versus strict toes to bar, for example. Think about it- The more movement (swing) you have, the less strict your skill will be. The less strict your skill is, the less you have to use your muscles.

This method is going to allow you to complete larger sets at a time, helping improve workout performance.


WEEK 1

Week 1: Focus | Testing Week 1

Let’s get started! If you’ve watched the Intro and Rhythm Focused videos now it’s time to start with week 1. Click on the session you need and let’s get to work!!

SKILL WORK

Buy In: 10 Kip Swings

Every 30 Seconds for 10 Rounds:

3 Rhythm-Focused Toes to Bar

For Clarification: “Rhythm-Focused Toes to Bar” means: Choose any level of any drill— using the bands, the box, or bodyweight— to practice reinforcing the ‘beat’ rhythm. Size of your positions does not matter, as long as you keep a consistent rhythm (Remember: Our end goal is NOT “Get my toes to the bar!”).

This means, you can practice “Small Toes to Bar”, which are essentially Kip Swings, or “Medium Toes to Bar”, where you lift your legs to horizontal, or “Big Toes to Bar”, where your feet come close to the bar, while still maintaining the rhythm. Choose a drill, and be smart about how “big” your toes to bar should be, and focus on connecting those reps.
