My grip is failing long before my arms and back on all the rope climb se. This is very frustrating. Any suggestions on how to improve grip strength or the discomfort in the hands during rope climbs?

Hands tend to adapt faster compared to other muscles. take the time it needs.

Your grip should be quite strong after one arm hangs, did you succesfully performed that mobility ?

Josh Wilensky

That's encouraging. Will keep at it. Hopefully it will all come together in a cycle or two.

Same position, especially doing multiple laps on a 3m rope. Much harder than just hanging on a bar :) Hoping to finish this by the end of the year, earlier is gravy. ..
