The Freestanding Curved Post Overhead Parallel Bar Climber is an excellent addition to any playground focusing on the importance of integrating exercise into play. Two horizontal bars run parallel to each other at an appropriate distance for small arms and hands. Children can test their endurance by hanging in one spot and seeing how long they can hold on. Alternatively, they can scale the structure by alternating where they grab the bar and swinging their body weight forward. This simple but effective element requires improvements in dexterity and mental fortitude as it develops strength in key muscle groups. Additionally, this bar climber advances grip strength, which is important for furthering upper body fitness as kids get older. The modern galvanized steel framework is powder-coated to protect against rust and weather conditions.
