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.

[@rocketboostjump]

I started doing pull ups and it stopped by tingling feeling down my lower shoulder and portion of my arm.

[@Beansnyc]

90 seconds is madness I can do maybe 60. But even that is trying...gotta level up !!! 💪

[@Pepeekeo808]

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.

[@royk5821]

Have same issue except at the gym.

[@donaldsmith7685]

78 YO and currently at 45 seconds. What a great stretch.

[@BarrierIsland]

It's helped me so much, looseness everything in the body. Try stretching out your legs too...

[@an_datsun]

Love it! I am doing it every day! It works wonders undoubtedly! 💪😁👊👍

[@regg32457]

Consistency is the key!

[@DriftLibrary]

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.

[@qxuzjaekquxq_99]

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.

[@DudeSkinnyTall]

Maybe because this is some AI generated garbage?)

[@ulrah2o]

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.

[@chrisweidner4768]

‘With a vest.’ Thanks for the heads up. All the best. Always.

[@crownator]

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! :)

[@mrdavester]

I did these for nearly 2 years. Was trying to heal some impinged shoulders, but it made them worse overall.

[@bo49685]

I just started to do DH like 1 day ago…..I can make it like 10 seconds. I know with time I can DH for longer💪💪

[@neilduran3586]

The diameter of the bar can make a big difference, the smaller the diameter the more pressure in the hands and the harder to hold onto the bar!

[@TeachWithTech_]

This exercise also included in hight increaseing factors ❤

[@Kmasse8]

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.

[@VINCENZOVALENTINI-j8v]

I can do about 20-30 seconds at 66 (maybe repeat it twice after a short break). I think it’s a fair amount of time….

[@oldbird299]

I'm 65, do the same and agree. It's better than what many I know can do...and I look much toner and feel better.

[@Jughead24]

I can go about 40 seconds. But I am 58....working up to 90

[@BodyHub]

It's tough but you've got this 💪

[@oldbird299]

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.

[@ramonduran9002]

Its not the older you are the harder it gets,,it's the weight, being on the heavy side offers more of a challenge,,,

[@geovanmarques701]

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 ☝️😊

[@kurakuson]

90 seconds can be grueling.

[@JohnHH59]

Not "can be". IS!!! Sixty seconds is grueling!

[@andyward8430]

Especially if your hand are tired from a workout. I do them at the end of my workouts usually and I very rarely make it to 60 seconds due to my hands just being worn out. I guess that means I need to work on my grip strength.

My best is 45 but I weigh 270 sooo

Are we meant to just hang there or be twisting our body, doing leg raises etc. like in all the B-roll?

Time 1:43 - is that Elon musk? 😆

[@tonyd4445]

I struggle with this exercise. I get golfer's elbow and no matter how far i bury the bar in my hands, the sharp pain cuts it short. I don't want to aggravate the tendons more than necessary. Are there suggestions to build up to a deadhang regardless of time?

[@RubyRedDances]

Buy yourself a copy of "Overcoming Tendonitis."

[@aaronholub5427]

Buy an Adex Club and look up Mark Wildman Heavy Club swinging on KZbin. Start light and increase weight very slowly so your tendons and ligaments can adapt

[@0Letten0]

My phone screen dies after 60 seconds

[@majinboo6377]

2 minutes are normal, 5 minutes are amazing. dead hang is easy.

[@ninthsunn]

90 mnts is a long time for me, 60s about max for now.

[@iwashere2370]

I got up to a 90-second dead hang and felt no benefits at all

[@Randy_Batswinger]

Illustrated by people doing hanging legs raises not dead hangs.

[@chipparker3950]

Needlessly repetitive. Video inappropriate for narrative.

[@johannesschadenfreude7288]

I did 90 seconds once. Normally I do 60 to 75 seconds.

[@proteusblack8913]

Why do you keep showing people doing leg raises? That's not deadhanging.

[@shumardi1]

I kept thinking the same!

[@ikechicoreralation]

A barrrrr

[@mq388]

I can 60 seconds single arm, right hand only

[@Pyrozen69]

Is this an ai voiceover?

[@RubyRedDances]

I think so. He says "bar" the same strange way every time.

[@Thug_--_life]

90 seconds in one raw ?

[@bramlilipory4116]

How about hanging upside down?

[@sh4branze]

Lifting your legs during a dead hang damages the lower back and hips. The pelvis needs to roll.

Basic content is accurate, but too much repetitive information in the first half. Also, AI voices are incredibly annoying with too many mispronounciations.
