He must have serious tendon strength. Seeing the training for climbers the goals are uncanny

His hangboard workouts are intense. Spends 30 minutes a day practicing hanging from different fingers, sometimes with hand open and sometimes with hand crimped.

You ain't doing planks until you're doing them upside down while hanging only by your pinkies (1:30).

And that might be the least insane thing about this training video. 2:40 and 3:30 is :damn:
