Fitness Wheel Hammock – Tumbl Trak
I love the Tumbl Trak Fitness Wheels, especially the larger size shown in this video.
For any group it’s easy to come up with dozens of fun & valuable activities.
This is new.
Turn your Fitness Wheel into a hanging sensory station with the Fitness Wheel Hammock. Designed for snug compatibility with the 5’ Fitness Wheel, clients will love swinging, spinning, rocking, and balancing safely in the suspended wheel.

Teaching HANGS
Stationary Positions:
1) Supports
2) Hangs
3) BalancesHangs are those activities where the centre of mass is suspended directly below the base of support. They are the most stable of the stationary positions.
Safety first. Plan hanging challenges in safe situations. Keep them low but physically demanding.
The classic coaching mistake in Gymnastics is forcing kids to climb high on a rope before they are physically and psychologically ready.
Gymnasts should be smiling … even when upside down. 🙂

Of course HANGING on Ropes or Rings is very good for improving upper body strength.
