Superhero Training
So I have been getting a lot of requests to work on various exercises so what I have decided to do is focus 1 month on each exercise to allow enough time for you as the hero to master the skill.
This month on Tuesday and Thursday for Superhero Training we will be focusing on Handstands to include, presses and walking. There is a Scaled and a RX version.
If you are ever uncertain about an exercise please make sure to ask a coach.
