Hanging wind sprint

The hanging wind sprint is a dynamic abdominal exercise that combines a sprinting motion with an alternating hanging knee-raise. It can be performed hanging from a bar, on a dip station or parallel bars, or if grip strength is a limitation, by placing the elbows in ab straps. If hanging from a straight bar is uncomfortable to the wrists or shoulders, you can also perform them hanging with a neutral grip (palms facing one another).

Benefits

  1. More difficult and time-efficient than high-rep ab exercises
  2. Can be performed for time or reps
  3. Can be performed on a number of different hanging implements
