- Pullup/chinup variations
- Handstands/handstand pushups
This was terrifyingly (is that a word) fun workout for me!
First Ellen showed me the most awesome way to do the Monkey Bars...she balanced me on her back and I went right across....okay, there was some squeeking and hyper-ventilating but boy was it fun!! Who knew?
The second time across was with Coach just holding my feet and I DID IT!!! Okay, there was some more squeeking and hyper-venitlating BUT I still did it!!!
Handstands ~ OMG....I was terrified...I'm talking legs and hands shaking terrified but again I DID IT!!! Okay, there was alot of coaxing involved and it wasn't pretty AT ALL but I did it!!! Yea!!!
Pullup/chinup variation ~ This was really cool, you started doing a pullup overhand, then you move across the monkey bar to neutral then again to underhand....with Coach holding my feet for support...I actually liked this one ALOT!!!
Interesting observation....some people enjoy extreme sports for the rush they get...I get the same rush just from hanging from a monkey bar or attempting a handstand...I think it is all about the fear.....lol.

You did good!! You faced the demon head on, and...well, you may not have quite slayed him - but at least you gave him a bit of an owie!!
