The Road to the 100 Second Spinning Bar Dead hang episode 1: Starting Evaluation

In the Road to Series I document my training journey to achieve a certain fitness or calisthenics accomplishment. In this edition of the Road to I begin my journey to achieve a 100 second dead hang on a spinning bar.

Dead Hands are a basic movement in calisthenics as all bar calisthenics revolves around being able to do dead hangs. Interestingly when the bar is not fixed it will begin to spin due to the use of friction by our hands to hold onto a bar. Now we can only use the amount of force we get from pressing on the very top of the bars curve which is much less causing a spinning bar dead hang to be much more difficult. I have decided to embark on this journey not only to win $100 but also to gain the endurance and strength necessary to beat the treacherous third stage in the Ninja Games competition.

This will be the most ultimate 100 dollar hang challenge I will attempt to become strong enough to defeat and the journey to achieve this spinning bar dead hang begins today.
