It’s been said that in the days of old, this was the first and only exercise taught to many aspiring weightlifters to practice. Supposedly, no other exercises were taught or practiced until the pupil could perform the TGU with a 100-pound weight in either hand. This might seem silly to you, but the reasoning is quite sound. First, it takes tenacity and commitment to conquer this feat of strength. Second, it slowly yet steadily builds a solid foundation of strength that nearly "injury proofs" the body, making it ready for more demanding training. Third, it significantly strengthens the major muscle groups, small stabilizing muscles, and connective tissues. ]]> http://www.crossfitvirtuosity.com/skillofthemonth/the-turkish-get-up/feed/ 1 http://www.crossfitvirtuosity.com/skillofthemonth/running/ http://www.crossfitvirtuosity.com/skillofthemonth/running/#comments Tue, 01 Jun 2010 04:00:18 +0000 tylerdurden http://www.crossfitvirtuosity.com/?p=3489 http://www.crossfitvirtuosity.com/skillofthemonth/running/feed/ 0 http://www.crossfitvirtuosity.com/skillofthemonth/the-muscle-up/ http://www.crossfitvirtuosity.com/skillofthemonth/the-muscle-up/#comments Sat, 01 May 2010 04:00:40 +0000 tylerdurden http://www.crossfitvirtuosity.com/?p=3295 http://www.crossfitvirtuosity.com/skillofthemonth/the-muscle-up/feed/ 0 http://www.crossfitvirtuosity.com/skillofthemonth/the-dip/ http://www.crossfitvirtuosity.com/skillofthemonth/the-dip/#comments Fri, 02 Apr 2010 04:00:57 +0000 tylerdurden http://www.crossfitvirtuosity.com/?p=2818 http://www.crossfitvirtuosity.com/skillofthemonth/the-dip/feed/ 2 http://www.crossfitvirtuosity.com/skillofthemonth/the-clapping-handstand-push-up/ http://www.crossfitvirtuosity.com/skillofthemonth/the-clapping-handstand-push-up/#comments Thu, 01 Apr 2010 04:00:23 +0000 tylerdurden http://www.crossfitvirtuosity.com/?p=2811 http://www.crossfitvirtuosity.com/skillofthemonth/the-clapping-handstand-push-up/feed/ 1 http://www.crossfitvirtuosity.com/skillofthemonth/the-snatch/ http://www.crossfitvirtuosity.com/skillofthemonth/the-snatch/#comments Mon, 01 Mar 2010 05:00:08 +0000 tylerdurden http://www.crossfitvirtuosity.com/?p=2461 http://www.crossfitvirtuosity.com/skillofthemonth/the-snatch/feed/ 0 http://www.crossfitvirtuosity.com/skillofthemonth/the-overhead-squat/ http://www.crossfitvirtuosity.com/skillofthemonth/the-overhead-squat/#comments Mon, 01 Feb 2010 05:00:28 +0000 tylerdurden http://www.crossfitvirtuosity.com/?p=2192 Overhead Squat.
