How to Balance #09 – Squat And Grab
Rail squat with hands.
AKA Assassin's Creed position.
Ha! Ok, so today we are trying to squat on the bar and then stabilise with hands too.
See the previous video for squating. This will be tricky if you don't have a full body squat down yet, but keep persevering to get it. Work your squat position on the ground too (we'll do videos on these later, too.) This position will help you to keep low and stable on the bar.
It is also the position that can be used for mounting the bar too.
Good luck.
