If you are going to do 10-15min sessions you should be thinking in terms of doing that several times a day for gains as opposed to ticking over.

Obviously Shark, eliminating 'take' from your vocabulary would bear more fruit than any amount of hanging - but God forbid you work your REAL weakness

If you are going to do 10-15min sessions you should be thinking in terms of doing that several times a day for gains as opposed to ticking over. If you were going to train your biceps with 3 sets of curls it wouldn't take you more than 10mins (including rest periods), and you wouldn't do that 3 times a day.Just because we spend all day at the crag doesn't mean we should spend all day on the fingerboard.
So how much, how often do you think is optimal ?
Actually meant to ask about rock rings and went off on a tangent...Never used them.Worth it?
Apologies if this is off topic, avoiding making numerous threads about roughly the same ideas. Does anyone have opinions about repeaters - when struggling to complete a set, would you drop the time of hang off or the number of reps?

I detailed the whole session on my blogI am only using rock rings because I dont have access to a fingerboard during the day. The offset pull-ups sound like a good idea although I don't do them currently.
