5 BENEFITS OF BRACHIATION
Jul 27, 2021What is Brachiation? And Why is it so beneficial?
Well Brachiation is something all primates have been doing for a LONG time!! It's the hanging or swinging in the trees! AND it's incredibly healthy for us to do on a regular basis!
Here are the 5 reasons WHY BRACHIATION IS SO AWESOME!
- Opens tight fascia
- Balances out our muscles surrounding the joints of the arms, spine
- Improves our joint range of motion
- Dramatically improves our grip strength
- Can be done anywhere! At home, in a park, at the gym!
How do you stand in terms of healthy brachiation? How long can you hold a 1 arm brachiation hang....no legs on the floor!
Beginners - use 2 arms....more advanced go for 1 arm
Primates can easily hang off 1 arm for 10-15 minutes!!
I'm asking you to try and hang for 2 minutes at any of the levels!
Very good for humans.....1 arm....can switch when you like (BUT STILL DONT TOUCH THE GROUND) for 5 or more minutes!!....BEGINNERS shoot for 2 minutes on 2 arms!
Comment on how well you do okay!!
