There’s something about Monkey Bars that brings “the child” in me. I started practicing about 7-8 years ago, by doing Dead Hangs, to Condition my grip strength….

This is a very Advanced movement. Beginners should try it by a Wall and BodyWeightSquats(or with a PVC/Wooden stick), and have a good Squat form. This Squat variation will add AnkleConditioning, HipStability and extra CoreStrength. Depending BodyWeight(I’m 115-117lbs), do not load Heavy. My Max is at 45lbs. I’ve use 55lbs, but noticed BosuBall was “not happy”🏁😅

Squat deep or go home….at 105lbs, which is my comfortable MaxWeight without using Body Lifting Belt. I do not Squat any heavier, not because I can’t, but because I only deep Squat to keep Ankles/Knees/Hips/Back strong and build Glut Max.

For those who love Planks, here’s an AdvancePlank to challenge yourself with….not recommended for Beginners.

Part of my Fitness Journey…over 8 years trying to do a PullUp and finally was able to complete a DeadHang PullUp (shortly after my 54th Birthday! ). This video is of my 2nd time doing PullUps.

So I Signed up to Compete in a 35+ NPC BikiniBody, as shown here. I also Signed in 40+ and 50+. I ended Placing in all 3. Never too late to Start a new Goal.
