Now, what exactly is a dead hang?

A Dead Hang, in its simplest form, is when you hang from a bar with both hands, arms, and body fully extended, with your feet off the ground. So, your grip must be firm, with hands shoulder-width apart, and your body must remain in a neutral position to maximize the benefits and minimize the risk of injury. But let’s go into more on that later.

The origins of the Dead Hang can be traced back to calisthenics and climbing, where grip strength, endurance, and body control are the topmost priorities. This exercise embodies the foundational aspects of physical training, emphasizing the harmony between body weight and gravity.

Now, you might be wondering, 'Why should I incorporate Dead Hangs into my workout routine?' The answer lies in the variety of benefits it offers. From improving grip strength, which is essential for daily tasks and various sports, to enhancing shoulder stability and spinal health. The Dead Hang also plays a significant role in developing core strength and even in mental resilience, as it challenges you to push through the simplicity of the act.

And that's just scratching the surface. Later in this video, we'll unpack these benefits in detail, backed by science and real-life testimonials. The Dead Hang might appear straightforward, but its impact on your body is anything but simple.

To truly appreciate the Dead Hang, we must delve into the science that powers its benefits. When you're hanging from that bar, it's not just about enduring; it's a full-body engagement, a silent conversation between your body and gravity.

So, how does it really work?

Let’s talk about the physical mechanism of the dead hang.

I’m 66 and these have completely healed my chronic left shoulder pain. “A mere 90 seconds…” I include it in supersets, but can’t get past 40. Usually 30. Oh well, one day.

I'm 71 and have have worked up to 90 seconds over a month's time; heading to two minutes! I put my pull up apparatus up on concrete blocks so it is high enough to really HANG. I hate having to bend my knees to stay off the ground.

Dead Hangs released my lower back pressure, by decompression. Active Hangs increased my forearm, shoulder & grip strength & toned my upper chest. Once a week Foam Rolling decreased my recovery time. Together, I feel like a child again. I’m 6’7”, 120kg.

Woohoo! Just broke 2 mins for the first time (2:03) and felt like I could've gone longer. Next goal is 3 mins and will try some one-arm DH's as well. Not bad at 65 years young! :)

Most of the video isn't even showing dead hangs, but ok... I've seen everything from pull ups to leg raises to god knows what. But I'm glad there was a silent dialogue between the body and gravity, LOL.

I've been doing this for almost 2 years, just to ease my back, but I don't see much results, sometimes the wrist is open, Care and moderation ☝️😊

I see a lot of acceptance of age excuses. Don't think about age as a barrier. Be positive and do all the progression recommended. I'm 70 and conquered 90 seconds. Doing 65 seconds with 20# vest. I started doing five sets to failure whatever the was. Recover a minute.

When I was in middle school was able to hang 90 seconds. Then for 30 years did not dead hang at all and started again. At first I could do 80 sec but after a couple of months of training went over 3 minutes in one go. One does not need to do them long time to develop and have benefits. If you can hang 20sec, then hang 20sec and have a 1-2min rest and do them again. They feel great for my often aching lower back and I think thanks to dead hangs I hardly ever experience shoulder issues when training with heavy weights.

I'm 66 and 30 to 40 sec is damn good for ya in a few sets every day (or every other) if you do that Grease the Groove thing. Works well without tiring out too much...until you slowly build up to a more progression of some sort. There's passive and active, understand the difference & you'll gain and fix shoulder issues: slow and steady wins in this game. It does hurt at first until you adjust = great book too. Good info, thanks.
