Hangin out

You might have noticed we’ve been doing a lot of passive hangs in warm ups recently.  These aren’t just to give you a break, rather to get you more comfortable with a basic position that we need to be able to use for a number of movements that we do.  You wouldn’t worry about walking, running or squatting if you couldn’t stand for more than a few seconds, would you?  It’s the same thing here – if we aren’t comfortable hanging for lengths of time, how can we expect to ever do larger sets of toes to bar, pull ups or muscle ups?  We also get the added benefit of strengthening our grip and opening up our shoulders, which for most of us are a bit inhibited and lack the range of motion we were born with.  So get your hang on today and see if you notice anything different at the end of our volume training.
