Tips for Success:
At the race, always grip the monkey bars tight and attempt to reduce the sway of the body, especially side-to-side. Any uncontrolled swaying adds considerable fatigue into the grip while, at the same time, increasing your risk of shoulder injury. In addition, if you have not practiced on Monkey Bars or haven’t been on them in a few decades, do not try and be the Tarzan you maybe once were. Bend the arms and take the bars one at a time!
W zeszły roku nie udało mi się pokonać tej przeszkody i za każdym razem robiłam karne burpees. W tym roku nie odpuszczę. Będę ćwiczyć codziennie. Do pierwszego Spartana został cały miesiąc, sporo czasu... dam radę!!
