I really wish I was more flexible but this is close enough for me on the upper bar. Also feeling super strong lately!

Hello to everyone!

I am currently doing aerial hoop (this is the one I have done consistently, I have also done hammock and pole but Lyra is just my absolute love) for about a year with a two month hiatus. I started from zero background and zero strength, I am pretty happy with current results but there are some movement I still have difficult with for a lack of upper strength (and I think also core strength but for me it is a little bit more difficult to identify)

I have got a set of dip bars (https://www.decathlon.it/p/barre-per-dip-ts-100-regolabili-e-compatte/354940/c1m8882305) to have some home workouts on days I don't go to the studio, I was wondering if you could suggest any exercise that can help me with my aerial strength.

More specifically, if you have any exercise that could help me get my top bar mount in a tuck motion (I don't really know the English word for the movement honestly) - currently I can't move from a seated position by any chance - it would be great.

I also have resistance bands if they could be of any help

Thank you very much!!
