Picture: Primal Bootcamp

 Primal Bootcamp

We had lots of fun on this primal camp.  On a mildly wet bank holiday Monday - we still hit the deck on all fours, lots of sprint drills, balance work, jumping and climbing.

Here is my first successful attempt at climbing onto a suspended log using bodyweight transfer techniques as taught by Erwan le Corre (MovNat).  

Will take a lot more practice to perfect, but I am pleased to have been successful here and for someone like myself who doesn't 'climb' as a hobby it's a lot of fun. :-)

When possible I try and perform this work in the local park, during my park workouts onto a rope (long term goal) or tree branches I can find to support me.

Workout: Play in the Park

Today I visited my local park (Ravenscourt Park) in West London and did a natural movement workout.

My workout was based around a combination of:

50-100m sprints;

Walking along beams (balance work);

Horizontal rope climbing;

Tree (Knee to Elbows);

Tree (Pull-Ups/Chin-Ups);

Jumping;

Climbing;

I am slowly building up my proficiency with some of the more technical work (as well as confidence).  But I am enjoying the process.  

It is also fantastic to have this great location a few minutes walk from my home.  I had so much fun - will be heading out again later today.
