The Fitness Journal

When I was a child, I used to love to use the monkeybars. Unfortunately there are not too many sets of monkeybars around any more,(the joys of our society). If you think about what you can do on a set of monkeybars, you can see that they can give you a great upperbody workout and really work the flexibility and mobility of the shoulder girdle.

There has been a move over the last few years away from the standard weight training workout toward a more functional, fun approach based on similar movements to the “workouts” we had as children. One of the movers and shakers in this area is Jon Hinds and his Monkeybar Gym.

In this video, John demonstates some good training options while in a playground.

If you like what you see, the Monkeybar Gym has a set of DVD’s available on their training. I will review these shortly. To check them out click on the image below.
