Toes to bar is a powerful gymnastics movement that targets your core, grip, lats, and hip flexors, making it a key element in many high-intensity toes to bar workouts.

In this workout, toes to bar challenge your core strength, rhythm, and coordination while under fatigue. Whether you're kipping or going strict, it’s an essential skill for improving gymnastics capacity and midline control in CrossFit.

The box jump is a plyometric movement that builds explosive power, coordination, and lower body strength. It’s a key component in many high-intensity box jump workouts, often used to develop speed, agility, and stamina.

Knee raises are a core-focused gymnastics movement that builds abdominal strength, hip flexor control, and grip endurance. Common in beginner and advanced knee raise workouts, they’re performed hanging from a pull-up bar, bringing the knees toward the chest.

In this workout, knee raises train midline stability and coordination, making them a great progression toward toes-to-bar. Whether strict or kipping, knee raises are an effective and scalable movement for developing strong, functional core strength.

Knees to elbows is a gymnastics-based core movement performed hanging from a pull-up bar, where the knees are driven upward to make contact with the elbows. Frequently featured in knees to elbows workouts, it trains core strength, grip endurance, and body control—all under tension.

In this workout, knees to elbows develop midline stability, lat activation, and coordination, serving as a foundational skill for more advanced movements like toes-to-bar. They’re an effective way to build functional core strength while improving shoulder and hip mobility in dynamic settings.
