Those who train with me know how much I love finding a new "fit trail"! Imagine the delight in finding a fit trail AND a large open field full of mostly soft grass, but not chemically treated to the point of the local soccer fields (those make me itch and that's freaky... and scary because... chemicals!). While this requires a little "scouting" to make sure no hands end up in … [Read more...] about A Monkey Bar Monday WORKOUT with Video!
Monkey Bar Monday
Lots of Videos, Pull-Ups, Interviews, Monkey Bar Monday, Healthy Skoop, Sewing?!??
It's been fun to explore another part of the city a little, and I was thrilled to find that the fit trail on Lake Ivanhoe is well within a short walking distance of the coworking/makerspace. Here's what went down for Monkey Bar Monday by the way... do you have a fit trail near you? One of my favorite things to do with a small group or one on one client is to … [Read more...] about Lots of Videos, Pull-Ups, Interviews, Monkey Bar Monday, Healthy Skoop, Sewing?!??
Monkey Bar Monday – Exploring Bar Hangs For Time [Video]
There's a very cool (and very recommended) progression in Convict Conditioning Vol 2 all about hanging from one or two arms (along with towel hangs which are amazingly challenging) to develop grip strength, and I've been doing bar hangs at home about every other day usually for a minute or more. Current PR is 1 minute 30 seconds, and while I could have gone a little longer, I … [Read more...] about Monkey Bar Monday – Exploring Bar Hangs For Time [Video]

Monkey Bar Monday and Outdoor Flow State Fun with Slacklining
Happy #MonkeyBarMonday everyone! For some of you who have seen the preview on Instagram, here's the whole thing... including the "spiders" obstacle. While I am not in the least bit afraid of spiders (and at one point had about seven pet tarantulas) I am not about to just shove my hand through a spiderweb with the spider sitting in it looking right at me. … [Read more...] about Monkey Bar Monday and Outdoor Flow State Fun with Slacklining
Monkey Bar Monday – Rope Climbing in Providence, RI and A Scaled At Home Version!
As you may have gathered I shot a fair amount of video while in Providence, Rhode Island recently. The weather was ideal (slightly cool and overcast outside) not only for running around but acting as a natural light diffusor for pretty good video!!! When we arrived at Brown Street Park, I had that whole feeling you get as a kid when you see the playground and you can't seem … [Read more...] about Monkey Bar Monday – Rope Climbing in Providence, RI and A Scaled At Home Version!
Special Edition Monkey Bar Monday – With Extra Monkey
This particular Monkey Bar Monday is especially special for a few reasons. The most obvious one will be (and those of you who stalk me on social media already know about this) that I'm in a different city at the moment! I've spent the past few days having a much needed mastermind (business, life, etc) with a good friend and fellow RKC, Amber Lee (Twitter: Geekpixie) in … [Read more...] about Special Edition Monkey Bar Monday – With Extra Monkey
Ask GiryaGirl: What’s MonkeyBarMonday? What’s an EMOM workout? and Some Small Questions
What's all this MONDAY Monkey Business??!? Monkey Bar Monday, aka #MonkeyBarMonday or #MBM started on a total whim several months ago. As usual I'd had quite a lot of espresso and decided to walk over to a small park where some monkey bars were gloriously empty... and it was Monday. And Monday and Monkey start with M... which makes it catch enough to turn into a … [Read more...] about Ask GiryaGirl: What’s MonkeyBarMonday? What’s an EMOM workout? and Some Small Questions
