Hi dear community :)
I'm currently working on my Caterpillar climb and seem to be stuck at one point.
I just seem to be unable to move my legs further up once I'm in the upside down position.
Do you have any tips for me? Or is it maybe caused by holding my hands in the wrong position?
Thanks for your help.

Hey love! So I find visualising a caterpillar climb as the same as a normal climb - just upside down, really helps!
So, if you bring that top forearm to the pole with your hand in a pistol grip you are then able to straighten your legs and push your upper body away from the pole with that top arm. Your legs should then be in a crucifix position and you should be able to bring the bottom arm up and grip using your forearm & a pistol grip and push your hips up to get you into a caterpillar position. Hope this makes sense! Good luck ❤️

Thanks for sharing. Caterpillar climb is a work in progress for me and I actually don’t think I’ve ever thought to see it like a upside down climb! Love that
Yay thanks so much for posting this here Patrycja!! Layla gave really great advice!! I'm going to post a video here in the community feed of me doing the caterpillar climb (I will tag you). If you watch that along with what Patrycja said, it should help a lot.
