Hangboarding for Strength

Its been a while. Here are some cool numbers for you though!

I am in the middle of an already successful hangboarding phase and I'd like to share some preliminary results.

Half-pad Edge on Beastmaker 2000

4sec ON/ 8sec OFF x5reps

5 Sets (half crimp 3x, full crimp 1x, open crimp 1x)

3min rest between sets

Perform the workout every 2-4 days depending on how your fingers feel.
________________________________________

Results after 10 sessions over 5 weeks:

Open Crimp: 12.3% increase in amount of weight added (31 lbs)

Half Crimp: 8.6% increase in amount of weight added (21 lbs)

Full Crimp: 12.2% increase in amount of weight added (26 lbs)

I will continue for 3-4 more weeks and post more details when I am finished.


Yay hangboarding!
