I started hanging around 2 years ago. I do just 1.30 mins a day. I suffered for years with several old shoulder dislocation injuries and could barely raise my shoulder above horizontal. I also had a very hunched over stance and walk since my teenage years. I'm 6 foot, but looked like I was 5'8".😊 Dead hanging has sorted all of that. I'm 47 and walk straighter than ever. My shoulders are 100% and I have a great routine of chin ups/pull ups. Hanging really helps with that too. It's an exercise with amazing benefits for such little effort.

Hangs have been a life saver for my RC issues. I have one of those pull-up bars that goes in the doorway. I started doing assisted hangs with my feet on the ground at first. I got immense benefits in terms of pain, mobility, and decompression from assisted hanging alone. I only progressed to actual hanging as needed. There's no need to go too hard too early, similar to weight training. Speaking of, weights have also been essential. I can do presses that I thought were off the table with full ROM and comfort. The ROM and stability improved gradually - I never forced it.

Ooh! Frozen shoulder! Ow!!! That's EXACTLY why I recommend taking it easy to begin with. So many videos recommend dead hanging, but hardly anyone warns people to begin gently and slowly. Interestingly enough, hanging can help restore full range of motion after frozen shoulder... IF you do it very gently, bit by bit.

Just want to add to what he said about stretching impacting muscle performance. Static stretches (i.e. pretty much any stretch where you hold a position for a certain amount of time) can negatively affect performance. Dynamic stretches, however, have been shown to improve explosive performance. Dynamic stretches are basically moving in and out of a stretching position.

What I get from that snippet of article at 6:20 is my next hanging exercise will be pulsed, as it were. Contracting between stretches seems likely to produce the greatest increase in range of motion. Strength throughout your ROM is a longevity goal. Occasional pikes can target the lower torso. Call it 'live hanging'?

Something tore in my hips and I’ve spent 15 months with hip and leg pain to add to the back pain. Just a cautionary tale.

I can’t even sit cross legged any more.

@@yp77738yp77739You can relieve those muscles by passive stretching, active stretching will only worsen it. More than likely you must’ve went out of your lower back’s range of motion with it already being immobile and fragile, which is why your hip compensated and has been in pain ever since. Also 15 months of pain from injury isn’t the most normal occurrence, you need to increase blood flow to that area to start the healing process and you can only do that by using those muscles. Start off with small joint movements, moving it as much as you can. 1. Passive stretching to ease the muscles 2. Joint mobility to restore blood flow 3. Strengthening to prevent injury 4. Active stretching for muscle lengthening Pain isn’t normal, it’s your body telling you something is wrong. The sooner you let go of the idea that you HAVE to live in pain and tightness, the sooner you will be happier.

At work we hang truss from ceilings for concerts. As the chain motors pull the lighting into the air, I hang on to it with both hands. As it goes up I relax and let the truss pull me up slowly screeching out my entire spine, its one of the most refreshing experiences. Chain motors pull very slowly and can lift several tons.

To hang for a minute a day is OK for stretching, but to remodel the shoulder joint, like Dr. Kirsch suggests, you need longer duration. More like 10 minutes a day. However those 10 minutes can be spaced out across the entire day.

Really a lot of good information here. I used to hang, about a year ago. I started out hanging for about 20 seconds before I would drop off and worked up to about 1'30" continuously hanging. Did that for a couple of months. At that point, I had so much tendonitis around my elbows that I had to stop. A year later with no hanging the tendonitis is mostly resolved but not completely. My shoulders were always fine, but it was brutal on my forearm tendons. I haven't started hanging again. Maybe I will at some point.

I have a 32" safety bar (the kind for bathrooms) that we put above the doorway. Hanging from this relieves my shoulder pain. I keep my feet on the ground since I'm tall enough to reach the bar and just lower myself until I feel a good stretch. I thought this might help people who do not have a tree or anywhere to hang a big bar such as what you have. Most door frames have a good, sturdy stud going across the top of the frame.

Excellent instruction, and very timely since lots of people will be inspired by the rings and bar exercises in the Olympics. A few questions: 1. Would the recommended timing need to be modified if someone already uses an inverted traction table? 2. Are there ways to do this one-handed or elbow-supported, if bilateral wrist health is not available? (Unrelated question: Do you keep an eye on comments on your older videos? Since I'm looking at taking up powerbocking, I may end up with additional questions and wonder if they would be better to ask on a new video you post or on older videos dealing with a given exercise.)

What about inversion tables, Stefan? I've tried one. They take the shoulder pain from hanging out of the equation. They seem to make the lumbar area of the erector spinae really fire. Maybe it's trying to stretch that area and the muscles are trying to resist it i'm not sure I'd love to see a video on inversion tables, and if you think they are actually helpful, maybe a program beginners could follow like you've done for hanging I really hope you consider doing that frozen diaphragm video - not being able to breathe properly keeps me stuck in fight or flight (well, freeze). I see videos on sticking your fingers up behind your ribs but that seems risky if you don't know what you're doing. Please help me learn to relax the diaphragm and breathe again! 🙏

As long as you can hang without your backside touching the floor, you can do at least a partial hang. It doesn't give you much room to progress to a full hang though, unless you can bend your knees and not touch the ground. I'd say the bars I used in my garage in this video are about as low as you can get away with.

I started having severe seizures about 10 years ago. I needed shoulder surgery to repair the ripped up connections. I was dislocating my shoulder forwards and backwards. The surgeon told me to be extra gentle on my shoulder. No more seizures for years now. They found the right medications. However I lacked enough flexibility in my forearms to even use dumbells. I would hurt my wrists, elbows and my shoulders popping. I finally saw a gymnastics video and saw that I couldn't stretch my wrists enough, as in the motion like when you wave at someone. The stretching requires weeks of effort, but going to physical therapy was the right choice. I am now flexible enough and my forearms are now strong enough. You might need to strengthen your grip, which is a different part than the muscles used in exercises for just lifting weights. On my last day of PT, they had me hang and I had no problems. I am also lifting weights pain free. 😁🤗💪

I have no pain unless the joint grinds but this doesn't occur with deadhangs but rather push ups. I nevertheless have enough movement of shoulder for dead hangs due to scapula rotating. A surgeon said my scapula muscles are overdeveloped due to deadhang compensation. Dr Kisrsch gives example of arthritic shoulders benefitting from dead hangs and so avoiding surgery. Have you any info on this? I think the mechanics must be altered.

What if you hang in the chin-up position with your chin over the bar/chest up to the bar. Is that a good way to hang? That is what I have been doing. I do two or three chin ups, and then stay at the top, while bringing my knees to my chest 12 times, in that top position.

Great video. I've been doing passive hanging now for 4 months. Started with 30 seconds a day and now im up to 3 min(3×1min) a day. Just started incorporating active hang in to my hold. I was thinking of doing 5min a day? Is that too much?

I tried hanging for a period of time after reading Kirch's book. I have a torn labrum.which I have managed for years with physio. However I was trying to improve my shoulder strength further. I think I probably over did the hanging as I've now made the problem worse, to the point that I now have bicep issues too. I wish I had seen this video before I read the book!! It's been 18 months of significant restriction in my shoulder and arm, the problem keeps flaring up

Why do you use such low bars? I thought the tension needed to keep your legs up counteracts some of the effects and does not decompress the spine? Please advise.

I had a DRF three years ago. They tried wire surgery but ended up injuring tendon or radial side muscle causing white fluid bleeding and RSD/ CRPS suicide syndrome. Hair of RSD after prayers by pastor and wife team after three months. They had to remove thick wire on radial side same day itself. Other two removed later But i have radial and ulnar pain and so can do only 10-20 seconds dead hanging and have pronation supination movement issue due to botched up k wire surgery causing tendon or muscle rupture causing white fluids discharge on removal of thick k wire in radial side on same day of surgery due to severe pain in arm. Lead to RSD CRPS. Syndrome.. healed after pastor n wife prayer after three months of torture. Need to get rid of ulnar severe pain before i increase having timings. Or increase strength training for ulnar?

There’s a tree on our yard alright but I’m concerned that if I did hang on one of its branches, I might be the last straw on the camel’s back that can uproot said tree. I got afraid of trying since a really strong wind caused the mango tree (only a meter or so apart from the tree I mentioned) fell down and barely missed our house. If it fell on a right angle, I, who was studying, for sure would have been hit. Nevertheless, I’d still watch this video. Who knows if I could find something i could hang on to that could support my weight. Good luck and hang in there fellas xD

Stretching before a workout may not give the most effective performance of your muscles, but is it not true that stretching before a workout lowers the risk of injury?
