We LOVE seeing progress being made and hearing about how The Tink T2B Tool® is challenging athletes as a scaling tool for progression. .fred.dpt with

Weakness Work!
Toes to bar and double unders have been a big focus over the past year for me. A year ago I couldn’t do more than 1 toe-to-bar in a row and I just figured out double unders about 3 months ago
I have focused a lot on strict pulling strength for pull-ups and toes to bar which has improved my pull on the bar and my grip. In addition, I've tried to do at least 1 workout a week with GHD sit-ups in it, trying to hit ~100 reps or so to condition my core.
On the bar itself, I've used the to work on bigger sets while staying in rhythm. The Tink provides a nice target that is scalable based on your current skill level and capacity. The elastic band throws your feet back behind the bar for you which helps reinforce the quick hip extension needed once you hit the bar (or the Tink) to stay in rhythm with your kip. As you're able to string together sets of 3, 5 or even 10 T2B on the Tink, you can move it closer and closer to the bar. In workouts with T2B, I've challenged myself to do sets of at least 5, even if it means I need to rest longer and that may mean getting time capped on the workout
On the bar I’m cueing myself to aggressively squeeze the bar with a full grip and imagining pushing the bar towards my feet as much as I’m lifting my feet to the bar.
