Thoughts on the monkey bars?

Tried it for the first in a calisthenics park. I usually do 3x15 dips and 3x5 pullups, so i thought with my upper body strength it would be no problem at all, but as it turns out, it's much more about coordination and control, than strength. Second try at least got me to the end, at a very slow pace. I was too exhausted for a third try.

But it's fun. I'll stick to it. If you haven't yet, you should give it a try

i don't think it's too hard or anything but they always end up ripping my calluses open, so i avoid them (rather do anything else than be forced to let my hands heal for days and days, even if it's fun)

So you're not applying progressive overload? Just doing 45 dips and 15 pull ups and calling it a day? I do 15 dips with 80lbs strapped to my chest, you better be applying some form of progressive overload.

Yeah it's like tradition introduces kids to them to keep us in touch with our healthier monke impulses pollforall.com/Q/q9kxkn5j
>>77249568
This is just lack of practice I expect, use them more and ease yourself into exercises (while consuming enough water and protein of course) and you'll get better.

there isn't a calis park within 30 miles of me so i have to go to an actual kids' playground. it's a pain because my feet touch the ground on every bar so i have to bend me knees but i guess that's good for my thighs and glutes somehow right? also the parents look at me funny.
