Hello Mani, congrats for the gains ! I once tried to attach a hangboard this way (to a pull up bar) but it would always twist. How do you prevent it from pivoting ?
This hangboard actually has a little double rope which I attached to a sling via cow hitch, and the sling is attached to the yurt Toono via cow hitch again, so there's not really any other direction it can twist to apart from the one shown.
as little as possible (as many outdoor rope sessions as possible), using HB to bridge outdoor gaps, came out to be 1 per week on average, now it's going to be 2 cause of bad weather...
I recall you saying that you don't really like regular pullups for climbing training - due to translating badly to climbing. You are now doign a lot more pullups on the finger board than static hangs- whats your rationale behind that?
I prefer one arm pull ups with assisting weight over two arm pull ups with bonus weight (but I'm not adapted enough for assisted one armers yet I think). And anything above 5 reps is missing the point, imo. I think the full range of motion, maybe even with a bit of dynamics for contact strength (see campusboard) is what makes pull ups carry over better to real climbing imo.
I didn't stop by for a couple months to your channel, then I did today, WOW! COOL! You're in a yurt! I can't wait to figure out why. But I must pass out now. Tired. I'll tune in soon. Peace
Yeahhh winter is coming ! Cool sets ! Did you do on 10mm edges? Would you say that it’s your fingers that fades or your back muscles ? Or both maybe ? I would be curious if you can still hand passively to see if it’s forearm or back that fades 😊
The edges are 12mm, including a quite big rounding. I'd say everything fades, but mostly it's the fingers which fade/limit comebacks, seeing as it's also the fingers which are disproportionally trained when you're fit.
@@ManitheMonkey thanks for the details ;) do you ever train fingers without pull up ? Did you ever tried pull up with the other form Bringing the chest to the bar or fingerboard That puts the elbow more on the sides and activates a lot more the lats I found that it’s a complitely different exercise I found that it’s making more like climbing with elbow on the sides At least switching during cycles for me I saw a lot of change in my lock off and general lats / back activation
Interesting. I do these pull ups by feel, and do not pay too much attention to form apart from wanting to really have the full range of motion (especially on the negative down, getting into those fully straight arms again). I think I trained fingers without pull ups for example during the Emil method experiment. I personally do like the full range of motion of a pull up, as long as the holds are small and there's few reps like 2 or 3 (anything above 5 is missing the point imo cause now you're training kinda crossfit upper body endurance which only bulks you up in that area, unnecessarily). I think it carries over well into real climbing, especially hard overhang climbing.
@@ManitheMonkey Yeah that make sense if you keep the reps low you would benefits fingers strength and full chain activation I always did hangboard separated than pull ups but that’s interesting ;) Changing time to time is always beneficial Thanks for the updates ;) good training and good come back ;)
This hut is lovely.

Mani how many sessions are you doing a week?

He says that with the full range of motion on the fingerboard it translates better into climbing.

Neverending babysounds....
Thanks dude

Stay free!
How are you elbows after frequent pull ups ? Mine get fried even when focusing on engaging back every rep
Yeah I can feel them after these too, it's a good thing if you want to get stronger I guess...
Do you ever get sore shoulders after hard fingerboard sessions ?
I mostly feel lats elbows and forearms after these.
