Top 8 Exercises BETTER than PUSHUPS for Climbers

Hooper's Beta Ep. 10

Note:

This is one of our early videos, before we started writing in-depth show notes to accompany each one. As we get this website dialed in we’ll be adding references to research for videos like this that don’t yet have any.

Description:

In this episode we get rid of the idea that push ups are a cure all for climbing disorders and rather discuss some fantastic closed chain strengthening that can help prevent injuries and improve shoulder stability.

Exercises start at 2:17

Disclaimer:

As always, exercises are to be performed assuming your own risk and should not be done if you feel you are at risk for injury. See a medical professional if you have concerns before starting new exercises.
