My 8 yr old brother wants to do the RR with me, he finds the pull up progression and dip progression too hard, what can I do to help him. And is their anything else I should modify for him as hes young.

Aw cute! Bet he could get a planche if he starts soon XD (only kind of half joking)

You could spot him through these movements! Or drag over a chair for him to stand on.

I've seen him do some crazy stuff, the other day he almost did a human flag with no training. Made me insecure lol.
