Scott mastering the kipping pull-up at RAW CrossFit Midland
Behold the power of CrossFit.

Only 14 session into his On-Ramp program at RAW CrossFit, Scott Attwood has officially joined the prestigious “Muscle-Up Club”. (unfortunately we missed getting a picture, so he’ll have to do another one to prove it) This is no small feat, and there are few people who can claim they can do muscle-ups (usually they are another CrossFitter… or a gymnast). The muscle-up is a highly skilled move that involves a combination of a pull-up and dip on the gymnastics rings. It is a top level functional movement that allows the owner of the muscle-up to move their entire body weight through their arm’s full range of motion.
When Scott arrived at RAWCF he could barely do 5 pull-ups. Not even a month into CrossFit and he is lifting weights and mastering moves like the muscle-up with ease. Congratulations Scott on your hard work and excellent progress!!

Scott will be putting his new strength and skill to use on the basketball court when he heads off to Laurier this Fall. Hopefully his teammates will be able to keep up with him.
