Improve your Pull-up

On Sunday, Feb. 13, we'll be holding the first of several skills clinics here at Atlas. Our first will be a Pull-Up and Kipping Clinic, taught by Coach Patrick Doyle.

During the clinic, you'll learn how to execute a pull-up from every possible angle, and you'll leave being able to do an unassisted pull-up! We'll spend time on regular, kipping and "butterfly" pull-ups, and there will be plenty of coaches on hand to assist you.

If improving your "Fran" time is one of your 2011 goals or you just want to get your first unassisted pull-up, this clinic is for you. Click HERE to sign up!

Stay tuned for a Muscle-Up Clinic in March, and feel free to send suggestions (sarah@atlascrossfit.com) on clinics you'd like to see offered at ACF this year.
