Toes to bar: how to do it

1 of 3

Hang with straight arms, legs together

  1. Starting position

    Hang from the bar with an overhand grip slightly wider than your shoulders, arms straight and legs together.

  2. The movement

    Brace your abs, raise your straight legs until your toes reach the bar and lower them without swinging.

Most common mistake

Don't swing your legs up with momentum, keep your body steady and control both the lift and the lowering.
