- Have you ever wondered how to train on a hangboard? Have you ever wondered how much better you will be at climbing if you train on a hangboard? Make sure to watch the video to find out. Prior to filming this video, I had zero experience in training on the hangboard. This video documents how I figured out the training and the amazing progress I made in just 30 days of training.

legit so happy to see someone as strong and well known as paul to be reaching out to weaker climbers helping them get past that plateau
What a nice guy :D
Climbing gear: $ 110
Hangboard: $ 41
Doorway pull up bar: $ 35
Baby blue slippers to protect doorway moldings: Priceless
Probably saved a good amount on the rent deposit 😆😆😆
@@GeekClimber to be fair I have foam blocks on mine for that exact reason
@@GeekClimber genius man, I've been using bubble wrap but I'm making the switch to airline slippers asap!
Man thats one hell of a comment 🤣
Need those baby blue slippers pronto.
Infinite improvement, I like this guy
Haha technically it is!
Haha
@@GeekClimber I mean. I guess?
"Infinite percent of improvement" You just earned a sub
Haha in a sense it is. Glad you like the video!
I loved the video. It was very informative and scientific! I've been trying to get better in the gym and have been trying to use the hangboard for the past two weeks but after seeing your video I have a better idea of what I need to do to improve. I went to the gym today (I go every day) and worked on the hangboard. Thanks so much for the informative videos!
You are the most welcome!
Infinity times 0 is still zero 😂
How did it improve your actual climbing?
Haha, the instructor.. "nothing worse than stiff fingers". Had a mental image of him on a rock face, slips and while falling to his death shouts "could be worse! Could have stiff fingeeeeeerrrrrrrrrrssssssssssss"
OMG, you have me laugh in front of the computer for a long while 😆😆😆.
Hahahahahahah
Considering he probably fell to his death because his fingers were stiff I’d say he was double screwed
Sudhir Raghu it’s a jo- nvm
@@GeekClimber "lol"
Those slippers protecting the door frame are priceless! great video!
Glad you like the video! Definitely need to protect the door frame!
I use socks to protect my door frame
hahaha
i dont know if all 565 like own a pull up bar, i dont really use my slippers anyway
Omg, I just noticed. 😂
Cuz he’s Asian I’m Korean and we wear/ use slippers alot😂
Infinite percent improvement = Asian parents only slightly disappointed.
LOL
Haha my parents are actually proud of me!
@@GeekClimber you were adopted by a white family? that's so sweet
twinrix one ? Wait is he adopted?
@@twinrixone5295 this made me fulcing laugh man and I needed it thanks
you`ve got infinately stronger. im calling the police
Haha I am sure the police will congratulate me when he sees me.
Hancock had a drinking problem
lmao xD
Andrew Novitsky it’s infinitely actually
Mathematicaly, he's correct.
I know nothing about climbing or hangboards but I know our boi knows what's what with those slippers protecting the door frame.
10/10
Haha those slippers work wonders.
Lmfao
I didn’t know they were slippers until I read your comment. Thank you! Lol
Infinity percent? Awesome!
Technically it is XD
:D
My girlfriend is proud of my new finger strength, if you know what I mean 😉💖
hahha yeah!!!
Geek Climber Technically it isn't since dividing by zero is not allowed. Infinity is not even a number. Still big improvement.
;)
Why was this in my recommended? And why did I stay to watch the whole thing?
Because TH-cam knows deep down you want to try out rock climbing!
Because he's charming and sincere
Free Solo got me here 🙏🏻
Because TH-cam knows you better than you know yourself
It knows
*which is technically a INFINITE percent of improvement*
It is haha 😆
@@GeekClimber how?
@@emeraldchylde any percent of zero is zero so any number above zero is infinite percent
The guy on the right at 2:30 is me at every party
Relatable 😢
i laughed so hard on the infinite percent of improvement
It technically is 😆
Geek Climber Sorry, but no. Technically it's undefined. The good old dividing by zero problem.
He definitely isn't chinese
See above comments, but he's right. You aren't dividing by zero, you are dividing by a number approaching zero. As a result of calculating the percentages as limits approaching constants, the improvement would be infinite.
*technically*
Infinite percent improvement?? Already stronger then Goku
It technically is haha.
*than
Aahhhhh!!! KAAAAAAMAAAYY HAAAMAAYY oo cookies.
10 years?! Dang man.
Haha I probably should have started to train earlier.
I've seen you commenting on other videos too, what a coincidence!
When I was training to become a professional peeping Tom I trained on a hang board religiously to mimic the stress of a 6th floor bathroom window ledge.... One handed ✋... I'm taking a break from it at the moment due to reasons I'm not allowed to talk about until after my court date and sentencing... Excellent video by the way. 😁
Oooh Aaah hahahaha
We know being a peeping Tom is a one-handed profession!
Uh oh
Jail...
I like the slipper placement to save the door frame from being scuffed lol!
Gotta protect the door frame!
I see TH-cam recommendations have brought us all together again
I think TH-cam knows deep down you want to try out rock climbing!
Your videos are really inspirational. I love that you show progression right from the start, since it shows how all of this is achievable to an average guy. This makes me want to get my own hangboard
I died every "OHH" he did when he let go of that hangboard
Haha that's the sound of hanging with max effort.
Oh. I thought he was going to be hanging on the board for 30 days non-stop
Haha I don’t think even a professional rock climber can do it.
Lol when I first read the title, I thought that would happen
Looooooooooool
@@GeekClimber Unless.....
Wtf
I really enjoyed the challenge and storyline of this video. Great work! It's fun to see small improvements and climbing is so much more enjoyable when you are in shape. Been many years for me but this video may just get me back in it.
Glad to hear you getting back into climbing! It’s such a great sport!
those slippers though.
Gotta protect that doorframe!
I had a good laugh too ... but I'm not so different ... I use socks!
Women and their alertness to shoes.
Bethesda Boy Men and their inability to see something right in front of their face.
I use washcloths, but only to reduce the squeak
Popped up from watching Juji and Magnus videos recently. You're too genuine and kind to not subscribe my dude, good work.
Glad you like my style of video and there will be more awesome videos to come. Stay tuned!
2:02 Peter sounds so reasonable and he explains stuff so well I could listen to him for hours lol
Totally agree with you. Peter is really great at explaining things.
So glad i watched this video ! I learned so much in such a short time ! Thank youuuu !!
You’re welcome and glad you like the video!
"average climber"
"climbed for 10 years"
then i guess im not even climbing if that how it is huh
If you climb for 10 years, I am sure you will climb better than me. On the other hand, the fact I've been climbing for 10 years and I am still average actually shows how much I love the sport!
Geek Climber idk if English is your first language. But that second sentence doesn’t mean what you think. Saying you’re average after 10 years would imply you don’t love the sport. Not that you love it
Brennan not exactly... his second sentence is stating that his passion for the sport is what brings him back after all this time. I don’t believe, specifically in this case, skill correlates with love for the hobby.
Magare Govedo I'd say the same of you with that state of mind
I'm 29 and technically I've been climbing for more than 20 years and yet I'm still very average, but I still climb because it is fun and I like fun the outdoors and having fun with friends in the gym
No I believe your wrong I think he means he's average in the sense he's stayed at grades he's comfortable in rather than push himself harder.. similar to me I find v3s pretty easy v4s I struggle with some but generally stayed around thst level tho my gym is grading a lot harder these days
I lost it when the dude just dislocates his shoulders to ''stretch"
Shoulder dislocations are great for shoulder health as warmup to any upper body exercise (pressing or pulling), or as a pre-hab exercise on its own !
It's just a name for the exercise. You don't actually dislocate anything.
I started watching your Chanel with this video. And its 4years ago. Wow.
Thanks for a good time
this video had me at "infinite % improvement"
Haha technically it is.
I love the quality of your videos! Having these longer-term challenges means you’re always working on several things at once, yet every individual project is completely up to par, informative, and useful! Excellent content, man!
Really awesome progress dude! I hope you get that V6 soon. As far as people mentioning more progress in less time climbing, I think it depends on why you climb and what you do in the gym. Lots of people are super competitive and live for getting better and others use it as a zen experience. Progress happens with both. I go through phases of each one, but I tend to go with the flow. All that matters is that you love it enough to keep at it. Also, the grades are kind of a trap to get stuck in. I’ve done v6 in the new gym by me but get shut down on v3s at the one I used to go to. Everybody sets routes differently so you’ll never truly know. Keep crushing man
I am actually closer to finishing a V6. There is a V6 route in my gym that I am 2 moves away from. I definitely enjoy climbing a lot as you can see I have been still climbing throughout these years despite little improvement.
I realized how weak my hands and arms are when I went to indoor climbing gym for the first time.
You just gotta go more often! Eventually you will build up your finger and forearm strength.
yea, climbing gym is not the only place I can train my finger, and forearm strength.
Absolutely enjoyed watching these amazing people from bed eating crisps. I’m lounging this weekend afternoon!
(I’ve been gardening all morning. I’ve been amazing already. Now I get to watch others.) Great video. Absolutely applaud the athletic strength & passion.👍🏾
Glad you like watching my video! You should try to visit a rock climbing gym some day!
Geek Climber - defo inspired by your video...👍🏾🤗
I thought that this was a BuzzFeed video xD
Haha I will take that as a compliment xD
Me too hahahha
Emil Beck I don’t think that this guy is homosexual though...
I guess you're right xD
Emil Beck the quality and style of the video is similar to Buzzfeed.
hahaha, love the house slippers door frame protectors
Haha definitely need to protect that door frame!
Actually just started hang boarding myself. I will try this regimen. Thanks for the video!
You’re welcome and happy training!
Dude your a legend, ten years and you only just now started to really try and get past your limits? You should be more confident in your body you are awesome!
“Average climber”. *states that he’s been climbing for 10 years*. Right
v4 ish is average for anyone who climbs regularly for 6-12 months imo
assuming they are not a heavy individual.
Ive climbed 1 years and like 2 months. At my best i climb v4.
He is super weak for a climber.
He probably climbing a tree for 10 years
@@samuelyoung2671 Yeah I've been climbing for 5 months and I'm 250lbs and climb at V2/V3 level rn. I can't imagine 10 years in I won't be above v4
With this routine, my gaming career will skyrocket!
My fingers are aching just watching this. Congrats!
Appreciate it! No pain no gain!
A great person is behind this channel! Thank you so much :)
You are most welcome. Best of luck.
The Ikea slippers as protections for the bar..... LMAO genius!!!!!
Haha gotta protect the door frame man.
That poor dude at 2:30 was just trying to talk man :(
He actually also taught me a lot of stuff but there is only a limited amount of minutes I can put in the video.
Gijs de Wolf .
Wait, the different camera angles and the guy in green. (With pink shit on)
dude the guy was the highlight of that clip. he got his moment and shined
Ik zie steeds meer nl mensen in de comments...heel raar, of dat youtube mij gewoon nl mensen reccomend
Gijs de Wolf hahaha I'm dying!!
Random video in my feed but he was so cute and wholesome! I loved how you could feel his excitement and his content with his improvement :) made my day
Glad this video made your day! You should consider visiting a rock climbing gym sometime!
Not sure how I ended up here but I love your enthusiasm.
Hey glad you like the video and I recommend you to find a climbing gym and give it a try!
Love the slip-ons on each side of the hangbar/door-trainee. Totally do the same because of the marks that appear on the door.
Great video!
Yea, definitely want to protect the door frame!
I would definitely recommend you to look into a pulley system. Subtracting weight will get you started on the lower rung much faster and will even allow you to isolate fingers and hang off two fingers for example. On the other hand adding weight with a harness will make your training more efficient on the bigger rungs, not having to hang for 35 seconds. So using added/counterweights you should aim for a hang time of about 7-10 seconds every time, closer mimicking actual climbing strength needs. And a big bonus is it allows you to keep track of your progress in much more detail, so it will keep you motivated. Good luck and hang in there...
Thanks for the suggestion. I saw people train with a pulley system in the gym before, and I can see the benefit of training with it. Not sure how feasible it is to install one at home though.
@@GeekClimber maybe use workout bands as a small pulley system?
I didn't expect that infinite percent of improvement to comes up, I like your humor
baby blue slippers protecting the door frame is genius
Very interesting. I would agree with other comments that more rest would be ideal :P
Now I am hangboard training off camera now with rest days. I can't wait to see more gains. I kinda forgot how good the feelings are when I can climb harder.
Hang With Me 2a
It’s not just your hand... no muscle(s) works alone... ever. Your core is engaged and your shoulders needs engagement and your mid trapezius
Had to add this. Pulling is not the same as pushing you need both resistance in the spectrum. Muscles can only pull when they contract. Insertion towards origin. When you use your latissimus dorsi and flexors and deltoids depending of which one the opposite muscle tries to control it. Also important lesson is to stabilize and mobilize the spine all the tiny muscles that helps move the bigger ones or starts it
Agree that core, shoulders, and mid trapezius are important to hangboard training.
awesome video man! I can't believe you featured Peter! I went to grade school and high school with him. so amazing and proud of that guy!
Peter is amazing! Super strong climber and an awesome instructor!
You above average my friend. Infinitely above average
😆🤣😆
This video inspired me to get a hangboard despite being a pretty novice climber (~ 1 year climbing) and its definitely helped my climbing! Ive found holding my legs out in front rather than down/slightly back gives me more traction when hanging on the narrowest holds.
That's great! You are right, I made the mistake of having my legs at the back for the first few days, but also discovered that it's better to have them in front afterwards.
Beware of hang-boarding as a real beginner.
If you never did any though exercises with your finger you should approach the hang-boarding with caution.
It takes time for tendons and bones to strengthen, more time than is needed to built up muscles.
Well said. The best rule of thumb is listening to your body!
I was really hoping you'd say "infinite improvement" haha my guy came through with real math
Haha gotta do the math to quantify the improvement.
I didn't know that climbing is harder than my engineering degree.
I also had an engineering degree too. To be honest I think you are right, climbing is harder than engineering for me.
@@GeekClimber I could use some of that infinite improvement for my GPA😂
I started using a hangboard a few months ago and girlfriend has loved every second of it.
She must be proud of you!
I just ordered a hangboard, will see how it goes.
That’s awesome! Good luck training and remember to let me know how it goes!
Geek climber your videos are awesome, i really like what you do.
I am a brasilian climber of 18 years old, i climb since my 6 years, but i learned alot watching your channel.
Glad you like my videos! You should show me around if I have the chance to visit Brazil 😆
Geek Climber of course! But i apologise for my bad english 😅
I know some good places around the city of são Paulo
INFINITE PORCENT OF IMPROOVMENT
that sounds infinitely better than what really is, literally
Great video. Love the slipper protection. Rad !
Haha definitely don’t want to damage the door frame!
I loved the slipper protection too.
Don't want to let that greedy landlord keep the deposit on the apartment.
"Which is technically an infinite degree of improvement." 😂
In a sense it is XD
*INFINITE POWER*
Haha not infinite power yet.
I don't climb a lot but I appreciate you identifying an area of weakness and directly tackling it! Awesome job
Took me a while to finally tackle it directly but it's a great feeling when it all pays off!
A good idea is also to attempt pull ups on a door frame! It’s definitely helping. :)
And well done on your progress great results!
I agree! I am stoked for even more gains in the future!
If everyone had your motivation,we'd have flying cars by now..I admire you 💪
Thank you for making this video, giving us the discount, and providing us with the DIY how-to video. I followed your instructions and put together my very own portable hang-board and started my own 30 day routine. If you have any other hang-board training advice that you didn't put into the video, I would love to hear it. I'll respond back to this post after my 30 days to tell everyone about my progress.
You’re most welcome! I am very interested to know how the 30-day challenge will go for you. Definitely let me know. Because of time limit, I didn’t include all the advice Peter gave me. In the video. For example, hang with the half crimp/open hand but never the full crimp. Regarding the reasons for hanging 7-10 secs with 2 sets etc, I’ll put theses extras in my face book page facebook.com/geekclimb/. Feel free to stop by!
Finished my first 30 days of hangboard training. I did the routine shown in the video with the same setup, but I only trained every 3rd day. My hang times when from 18-->23secs (+27%), 9-->16secs (+78%), and 1-->6secs (+500%). I'm happy with my improvement and I plan on starting my next 30 days soon. Thanks for everything.
Ugh. Hangboards. I have one. Have no idea how to really use it, just hang on it when I go under that doorway. Now I have a hip injury and can't climb for a bit so I'm super psyched to try your method.
Sorry to hear that you have a hip injury, but let me know how it goes for your hangboard training!

“Which technically is an infinite improvement” made me lol
Haha it technically is!
I love the slippers to prevent scratches on the paint to hold your bar 😂
hey youtube, great work you're doin' with this reccomended thing.
Glad you like the video. You should visit a rock climbing gym some day!
you can actually see an increase in forearm definition
I see myself every day so I didn’t notice it, but I was surprised when I reviewed the footage.
Awesome job man! You've never been doing something too long to improve! I really like that you put your improvement into perspective with percentages. It was great to hear your enthusiasm.
Glad you like the video man. I am very happy that I decided to do this. A bit late but it’s better than never!
Excellent video. This is how one improves at anything: you learn and you adapt what you learn to your particular circumstance like you did with the hanging program.
You are absolutely right!
Literally watched 40sec and subbed good job dude.
Glad you like it man! More videos like this to come in the future!
Looool infinite improvement!
Haha in a sense it is XD
@@GeekClimber subscribing for that response
5:10 bro this guy has me dead HAHAHA
Infinite percentage improvement lol you deserve a like for this one.
Technically an infinite improvement. I love it!
Well thats dedication
The first two weeks were definitely the hardest. Once I got through that phase, I feel weird if I don’t hang, haha.
Congrats on 1M views!
Appreciate it! It was a great ride.
Congrats. This is inspirational.
Glad you find the video inspiring!
Good to see you just
Hanging around...
Sevelar questios:
- Did yoou hang for 30 days straight? I mean, because profesional climbers won't hang more thant 2 or 3 days/week
- How many days of those did you climb?
- Any pains at the end of the month?
Tx.
It seems like an insane idea to hangboard every day, at least to failure/hard.
Great video. So I guess the point is that if we want to make significant improvement and reduce the period of time it takes to develop that improvement we should seek help from experts?
Haha in a sense yes. They figured it out already so you can save time and not having to figure it out again!
Love the slippers on the pullup bar.
Gotta protect the door frame!
I like the coach's assertiveness in his teach.
Peter has been coaching climbing teams for a long time!
cool video, might try a version of this myself!
You should! I am interested to know how it goes if you do it.
That was the best peice of advice ever:
"What if i feel weak."
"Go do some cardio, get your heart rate up."
It might seem obvious, but it's something most people don't think about.
For anyone wanting to hang board: for the 10 second on 5 second off stuff if you feel like your falling put a big toe on the ground and get to where it’s comfortable. It’s better than going to a jug because it’s a completely different type of a grip and will use different muscles
Love the content you put out. Keep it up!
Glad to see you stopping by my video again! More content to come in the future.
I'm not good at percentages but I trust his math because you know, Asian.
Haha the math is correct for sure.
Hey, loved the video. You mentioned you dreamed of deep water soloing but you can't do it yet because "it's exclusive for climbers at the next level." Just wanted to say that's not necessarily true. If you are ever near vietnam, you should visit cat ba island and do a DWS trip out there. You are definitely a better climber than I am, and I just got back from a multiday DWS trip out there. Was I the best? no. Did I crush every route? no. Was I able to safely climb, complete plenty of routes, and have the time of my life? yes. Definitely a dream within your reach!
Thanks a lot for the information! All the DWS places I found online are V5s and up. Now I need to look up cat ba island! Sound like you had tons of fun there!!
the start of an amazing channel
Gj you just reached 1 mil views!
It’s really amazing !
He is going to make a lot of women happy with those fingers
U never seen rock climbibg fingers before
