- A Complete Climbing Workout in the Gym including Reps, Sets, Resting Times and useful Tips and Tricks. The Focus was on Max Strength, Antagonists and Flexibility, which I tackled via Stretching, the Campusboard, the Hangboard, the Pull up bar, and the Parallettes.
For me personally this session served as a fitness check after Months of almost exclusive outdoor climbing and a bit of max strength hangboarding. The results were amazing!
Hopefully I could transfer some training motivation, drop some likes and comments if it worked, stay strong, and have a good training yourself!

Glad you liked it, and thanks!
always great to see your workouts ... keep it up! way to go, man
Awesome stuff, very interesting to see a pro session in such details!
Awesome video bro. Awesome.
Really nice video!
I can learn a lot for my own training.
Thank you for making these videos!
Looking strong! Thanks for the breakdown.
Lookin strong man! Your vids always inspire me to go hit the rocks (and do more mobility training...)
Thanks for the climbing psych!
Congrats on sending the project! 8c/+ is sick!
You should get some new socks... great video though
Wheeler thought the same Thing 😂 aber wozu frische Socken fürs dreckige Gym anziehen stimmt's Mani?xD
He's a climber he doesn't have the money for things like new sox.
he has no money for that - i mean climbing trips are expensive xD :))
Good vid Mani....Keep them going.
What a beast!!!
Wow, super strong, man... can't believe you can do such advanced movements after nearly 3 hours. Fuck my life/endurance.
Your best video!
crazy strong!
Many.... Good workout!!!!!!!!!.... 💪💪💪👍👍✌
You are a beast man
interesting training!
Training goals! Great video Mani
Barbell Steve didn't expect to see you here
Kit Ockham Got into climbing the past year. Obsessed now haha. Didn't expect anyone to know me here!
Super Stark, beeindruckende Entwicklung, sehr inspirierend!
Oh yeah! That's what I came here for in the first place :D
Good video of a seemingly great session!
And yes, you seem fit right now ... maybe time to rethink your hypothesis about your limit grade? ;) I say it is higher than you thought ...
good job
Hey Mani, great video as usual. I do lots of the workouts you tutorial (really helpful) but I have a common problem throughout many of them. There's so much rest time, and after about half an hour, I start to get bored during rests. Silly question, but do you do anything to occupy yourself during rest times?
beeindruckend wie stark du deine antagonisten trainiert hast. kenne viele leute die isoliert für diese figuren trainieren und deutlich weniger weit sind als du, obwohl du das nur zum ausgleich machst ;)
nice video dude
So sick
Mani, the only thing I didn't see in this session is the sloper hangs. Do you incorporate them at all? I found for myself that it carries over well to other open handed hangs.
Dope
nice job
Damn I need to get on your pullup level!
I'd kill go have this body and strength. I just started climbing and climb 6hrs a week plus doing a bit of weight training. Hopefully one day :)
i was worried latley about my left arm being weaker than my right.. good to see that im not alone on this :) ... mani, what do you do to compensate? try to do more excersices with left to make it catch up to my right? or just dont bother too much?
Wow man youre a beast! I used to do bouldering but broke my hand and tore the tendon in my ring finger playing rugby. Trying to get back into climbing but the grip strength just isnt the same 😭
Hoy many times a week do you train?
Thanks for all your dedication and useful training tips. How long would you rest after such a max session?
One rest day, then I attack again. However that's highly individual.
looking strong man. Just wondering if you could give any advice on climbers elbow? i reckon i jumped into training one arm lock offs too quickly, and starting to experience discomfort in my left elbow when i try it at certain angles- left shoulder is feeling it a bit as well. resting that arm a bit for now. any advice would be grand
something I still need to make a video on. Thanks for the reminder
Put your whole forearm in ice water. Also do push-ups, reverse wrist curls and stretch and massage you forearm/ where your elbow is hurting. Advil for anti inflammatory. Hold back on things that aggravate it too. 👍
I also struggled with elbow pain and shoulders injuries. I noticed that imbalanced and weak shoulders are playing a big part in elbow pains. For me shoulder exercises for rotator cuff, shoulder presses with kettle bell or barbell, stretching lower arms (is that the correct naming for it) and engaging shoulders during climbing, pull ups and hangboarding worked out very good. Also climbing open hand stresses the elbow a lot less than crimping. Since I started that, elbows pains disappeared like snow in the sun

whoa brilliant, thanks for all the replies- checking all this stuff out
I have your same "problem" on the straight one arm hangs on the 20mm edge of the beastmaker, with my left hand I can hold the hang for about 8s, with my right only for 4/5s. Do you think adding weight to the left handed hangs would be a good idea? I know we're aiming at max strength here but by doing so the right hand will have a hard time catching up, I'd like to hear your thoughts on that. Anyway great video as always and congrats on your project! Keep crushing 💪🏼
Thanks man, well hard to say. Maybe we should add the same bonus weight to both hands, IF any weight is added. Maybe always doing the weaker hand first could have a catching up effect. Just some thoughts, definitely stuff to experiment around with.
Mani the Monkey what about adding weight to a slightly larger hold?
I'm so new at climbing, Mani! Your videos are great. As a beginner, how often do you suggest climbing indoors ( every day, 3 x a week ) and when would I start climbing? (Just until I'm comfortable?) outdoors? How often do you work out in the gym, not climbing?
Not Mani, but it depends on what your body can take. As general rule I'd say 2 times bouldering, 1 time sport climbing a week at most. Once you develope a feeling for your body in regards to climbing you can go more often, because your body will tell you whether you can take a session or not. I'd give it a year. Apart from stretching, some core work and really light antagonist work (ideally yoga with a trainer) you won't need additional training in the beginning either. You're just gonna injure yourself.
You can go outdoor at any time if you've the people. You only get better at what you're doing. Indoor climbing doesn't really translate to outdoors, especially if you're new to outdoor climbing. I climbed indoors untill I was one of the stronger boulderers in my gym and still got shutdown quite hard during my first outdoor sessions because it's so different.
Have fun climbing and stay healthy! Don't overdo it. It's not worth it. I lost four months to injury during my first year. Happens to a lot of beginners because it's so addicting.
Hey Mani. I've been indoor bouldering for 5 months, so still a beginner, but I'm progressing quite fast. Just did my first 7A recently which I'm really happy about! I really wanna start training on the hang board and the campus board, but I see/hear warnings everywhere that you should wait 1-2 years before you start training on them. So my question is: How can I determine whether I'm ready for it or not? And thanks for the content! I watch all your videos :)
Good job, the best advice I can give in this position is to get more exp and moves in first before hangboarding. It's absolutely impossible to estimate fitness from a 7A gym grade, since gym grading can be completely random. On top of that it's highly individual how prone one is to finger injuries. Anyway, get a year of climbing under your belt and reevaluate.
I can second that! 5 months is too eary for hangboarding, ESPECIALLY if you have progressed fast at the beginning. Tendons take much more time to adapt than muscles and it seems that your muscles have adapted quite a bit. As you seem to be doing quite hard climbing (for 5 months) already, you shouldn't add additional stress on top of that. Just go climbing and try to progress technique and strength!
Hy Mani, thanks for the video! You look much leaner and much more muscular than in the videos of the past years! Whats about your body weight? Did you loose bodyweight, or are you still at about 67 kg, because of less fat and more muscels?
Hi mani, and anybody who could answer this question. About 10months ago i moved away from rock climbing and working out the shoulders/core/back/etc and went solely to weight training (cause thats what a 17yr old teenager does). About 2 months ago i came back to rock climbing and have started the other work outs again to regain any shoulder and back strength i had lost. In saying this, i felt stronger from day one of coming back (due to the weight training and just getting older in general) but still feel i have a LONG way to go. I still do weight training along side shoulders/back. With that out of the way, here is my question. Do i continue to do weight training to keep an bicep/tricep/Chest strength i have along side shoulder/back, or do i ditch weights and focus solely on the rock climbing elements and allow bicep/tricep strength to grow naturally? BTW, love the videos, your power is immense.
Impressive training, Just wondering how tall you are
great vid! dude im really a noob, but, are really pull ups transferible to climbing? I feel like I dont know, is a complete diferent thing .I do calisthenics and rings, but some months ago I start to hike a lot, and found some boulder spot, and start but I feel like is a complete different pattern and totally diferent way to use your body, i mean isnt enough just climb more ?
I don't think you ever told us your weight and height. I think it would help us make some estimations on how fast we could progress by comparing ourselves to you. Thanks

Maniiiii how can I prevent skin being pushed up my hand into a clump? I use tape but the skin underneath is still under pressure
Get stronger. The stronger you are, the more active you will hold on, the less friction you will need to hold on, the less your skin will get destroyed by campusing and hangboarding.
mani do you know the depths of the different holes on this board? i cannot afford the retail price an figure i can make my own. great channel lad
Thanks man, I don't know them but I guess the one I used here is around 20mm deep. Maybe the internet can help you further.
cheers mani, i did just that,and the mm"s vary so im gonna make one with warious depths. seems easy enough and save myself £90..
There are two holds for one arm hangs on the Beastmaker 2000, which are respectively 40 and 20mm deep. The other pocket sizes vary from a 30 to 10mm depth. Plus a couple of deeper finger pochets. All the edges are rounded so it's a bit hard to give the exact value :p
wild east , thanks for that, im going to make a couple of different boards with varying depths
I would recommand to design your board based on your finger pad lengths. I like to make my hangs on 1.5 pads / 1 pad / 0.5 pad deep pockets, based on how warm up I am, or how strong I feel. We all have different hands and fingers, so better build a board fine tuned to yours ! :)
Why you do some stretching before the training? I would sugest to do that afterwards. Before the training i always do some mobility training. What is your opinion?
I've been climbing for 12 sessions in indoor bouldering gym (2hrs each), but still lacking finger strength, am I being impatient or shall I start training on hangboard
Mani what do you think about taping up the tendons before campus boarding
My taping philosophy is to never tape to relieve inner structures. Your tendons n joints n stuff need to get used to these forces anyway sooner or later if you wanna do this sport. Don't confuse them by introducing another player (tape) into the equation. I only tape to avoid/protect surface damage (skin). czcams.com/video/y_fAaf_J7oQ/video.html
Mani the Monkey
I've been worried about injury because a lot of people say that campus boarding and hang boarding lead to injury but this makes a lot of sense. Thank you.
It can lead to injury, especially campus boarding. But not because people don't tape.
I keep reading that training for climbing has advanced so much since I was a kid in the 90s. But climbing outside all the time was pretty much what we did to train in the 90s, so in a way you've reverted to old-school methods. Does that mean you're foregoing the newest advances in training?!
Hey man, just wanted to ask you about your weight and height
Stretching when you are cold?!
Dude what is your body fat percentage geez
I'm in the low eights atm.
Fuck my life... I can do 4-5 one arm pull ups for each arm, I can hang 5-7 sec with one arm on the Beastmaker2000 and do the frontlever over 15sec. BUT I can't do a 8a ...
Well that's why climbing is such a fascinating sport.
You sound super Belgian
Elon musk's athletic bro
Less hair obviously increase the strength of a climber. Might think of shaving now.
Just curious
Are you german/do you live in germany cause that sign clearly says. Den Fitnessbereich bitte nicht barfuß betreten.
Judging by his accent he's probably from the german speaking part of Switzerland. He does not sound german.
No legs
sock game is pretty bad.
that one gave me a good laugh XD
gotta up the sock game I guess
I am so fat
