Episode 14: Hangboarding Part 2, ”The fun way to hang on the edge of a box”, programming, protocols, and how to get it done.

Is it better to use a smaller edge or more weight? How do you know when it's time to progress your hangboard session? If these questions have ever kept you up at night - or even got you into a useless conversation at the crag, this episode is what you're looking for. We're digging into the protocols you can use to practically build stronger fingers. 

And if you're interested in implementing some of these protocols, these are exactly the kinds of training tools I use in my self-guided training plans.
