I’ve mentioned my aerial yoga hobby before. This article tracks circus arts as the latest trend in working out. Some of my favorite quotes from the article:
“There’s strong and then there’s circus strong.”
“It’s not just strength, but also flexibility and balance. You’re learning how to stay tight, which takes muscle control. And there’s no impact.”
“People who keep at it eventually get rewarded with tricks, which is more motivating than a certain number of reps.”
“It becomes addictive to flip around.”
If you haven’t tried circus arts yet, I highly recommend them. Check your local deal sites for discounts.
