PRIMROSE HILL

Calisthenics park in Primrose Hill 001

QUAD PULL UP BAR:

Really, these bars aren’t the best, but because this was the best park in terms of athletes back in the day, I still like them a lot.

The high bar has a slight twist, which makes muscle ups easier if you’re still learning them.

ABS BENCH:

I never use these. The angle of the bench looks good, for those that do.

FLAT ABS BENCH:

I call this an abs bench, but I’m not sure if it’s meant for sit ups or push ups?

STALL BARS:

Very useful for training the human flag and triceps extensions.

TRIPLE GYMNASTIC RINGS:

Haven’t seen many of these in parks. It’s a good idea to have rings permanently in place.

POLE:

I think this is for pole fitness? If not, maybe you do something with the steps and use the pole for balance? I’m not sure.

DOUBLE GYMNASTIC RINGS:

Before the refurb and upgrade, these were the only gymnastic rings in the park. They’re okay, but the triple one is the better of the two.

MONKEY BARS:

This photo is really bad and I’ll take another one the next time in close to the park.

The bars are a nice width and there’s enough space between each rung to perform a clean muscle up (if your form is horrible and you kip, you’ll probably hit your head on the bar behind).
