One-handed dead hangs, anyone? 👀 ❓What are the benefits for doing this and what’s the difference between regular versus one-handed❓ One-handed dead hangs are an advanced grip and shoulder stability exercise that builds significant upper body strength. Regular dead hangs, where both hands grip the bar, help decompress the spine, improve grip strength, and increase shoulder mobility and endurance. Progressing to single-hand dead hangs amplifies these benefits by targeting unilateral strength imbalances, challenging core stability, and enhancing forearm and finger strength crucial for climbing, calisthenics, and sports requiring grip endurance. ❓Who should do these and who should avoid them❓ Single-hand dead hangs are best suited for advanced athletes or individuals with a solid foundation in grip and shoulder strength. Beginners or those recovering from shoulder injuries should avoid one-handed variations until they’ve built adequate strength and stability with two-handed hangs to prevent strain or injury. Consult a professional if unsure of readiness, and always prioritize proper form to maximize benefits and reduce injury risks. ❓How long should I do them for❓ For two-handed dead hangs, aim for 3-4 sets of 20-30 seconds (beginner) or 3-5 sets of 30-60 seconds (advanced). For one-handed hangs, do 3-4 sets of 10-20 seconds per hand with 1-2 minutes of rest between sets. Gradually increase time as grip strength improves. ✨Leggings are from @paragonfitwear Reluna Original Sculptseam Legging Earth (S). Code ZAHRAFIT saves you 10%!
