Title: Campus rungs on my woody?
Post by: tresor on February 10, 2015, 09:49:14 am: Was thinking of putting up some campus rungs on my woody. It has an angle of 28 degrees would this pose a problem, mainly thinking of increased risk for injury?

You can work a lot of abilities on them: power, power and power. And strength. ;)

Of course you have to bear in mind that they won't become a "real" campus board, so you'll have to tweak the excercises to fit the angle, the room for the legs, etc.
Do it.

Works a treat for both foot off and foot on. Takes a bit of getting used to mind, developing the slightly different technique for foot off and a fair bit harder, considerably more core needed. Seems to translate really well to normal angle campus.

Post by: blamo on February 10, 2015, 02:25:05 pm: FWIW: I have rungs on my woody and can adjust the angle of the wall. At 20 degrees the small rungs (19 mm) are perfect. When I tilt the wall back to 35 degrees, 32 mm rungs still feel okay, but the 19 mm rungs become fairly hard to hold onto.
