About The Programs
All of the programs were created to specifically train finger strength for climbing, and each 5-week program is catered to a different level of climber. They are in ebook format (PDF), so you can follow them on any device or print them out. There are 2 finger workouts per week in the beginner and intermediate programs, and 3 finger workouts per week in the advanced program, and each workout is about 2 hours long.
You will be doing a combination of “repeaters” and max hangs, all while incrementally increasing the weight you’re hanging with. There are also 3 intense supplemental core workouts included in each program to cycle through during the 5 weeks. Each program includes a logbook and a variety of other strength training and injury prevention exercises.
