Hypergravity Isolation Training (HIT) is one of the most effective
methods for developing finger strength. Designed by Eric Hörst, this
training tool offers high-intensity training on 45° to 55° overhanging
walls.
Target areas:
closed crimp, open crimp, open hand, pinch.
To install, use an overhanging bouldering wall of ¾” plywood at
an angle of 45° to 55° past vertical. HIT Workouts™ on a 55°–past
vertical–wall are significantly harder than the common 45° wall. If
you are building a wall for HIT Workouts™, a 50° angle works well.
Wall angles overhanging less than 45° are not suggested for HIT
Workouts™ as they require excessive–and dangerous–amounts
of added weight to produce the desired training results. By using
screws, one does not need to predrill pilot holes unlike with other lag
screws. Additionally, the screws provide higher pullout strength. If
you decide to predrill, do not make the holes too large in diameter–less
than 1/16”.
