Toes 2 Bar

Hey! I definitely find myself struggling with T2B lately in WODs. Today, for example, was a12 min AMRAP 10 OH Squats, 20 T2B, 30 DUs. I can do T2B up to 5-6 consecutive, and have been getting more practice with the kipping motion, but when I get into a WOD, I tire out so quickly! After a while, I'm falling off the bar after only 2-3 reps.
The only part of me that was tired during the WOD were my hands and forearms. But they hurt to much I could barely get through the T2B part of the workout.
Any advice? Should I be doing something different with my grip? Or how can I increase my strength so I have more stamina to hang on the bar longer?

Like anything else you just have to be patient to allow your grip strength to increase. Hand positioning is key as well.
Talk to your coach. He/she may suggest you scale to knees to elbows for WODs. That's what I do.0 -
