What is a Hangboard workout?

Hangboard Exercises The following finger-strength exercises utilize two-arm “dead hangs.” That is, two hands will be used on the board at all times — with each hand on the same size and type of grip for a given set — and you will hang with your arms in a static position throughout each rep.

Should beginners Hangboard?

We recommend you start with dead-hangs to build initial tendon strength, but as you get stronger – after a few weeks – you can begin to incorporate pull-ups into your hangboard routine. A set of pull-ups starts on two holds. They don't have to be the same type of holds, nor do they have to be level.

Are Hangboards worth it?

Unless you are training for sports competitions, you should use a hangboard 2 or 3 times a week. Scientific research has found that it is a great way to increase finger and hand strength even with minimal training sessions per week.

Despite it being a great tool, hangboarding should not be attempted immediately. Most climbing experts agree that it is best to wait approximately six months before adding hangboarding into your exercise routine. Using it too soon can injure your fingers because they will get overstressed.

How much weight do you put in a Hangboard?

Really strong climbers may need to add up to 100 pounds—beyond this point, I recommend transitioning to mostly one-arm hangboard training (an elite strategy) which I'll detail in a separate article. Do a 10-second hang using an edge or pocket that you can barely hold for 13 seconds with a maximum effort.
