FAQs
Are Metolius CAMPUSRUNGS suitable for beginners?
While possible to use, they are designed for intermediate to advanced climbers due to their challenging nature. Beginners should focus on foundational strength with less aggressive holds first.
How often should I train on the CAMPUSRUNGS?
Listen to your body. Typically, 1-3 sessions per week, with adequate rest days in between, is recommended. Avoid training to failure frequently to prevent injury.
What is the best way to warm up before using CAMPUSRUNGS?
Begin with light cardio, followed by dynamic stretching of the wrists, elbows, and shoulders. Perform gentle hangs on larger, easier holds before moving to the CAMPUSRUNGS.
Can I install these outdoors?
No, the CAMPUSRUNGS are designed for indoor use only. Exposure to weather can damage the material and compromise safety.
What is the recommended grip for hangboard training?
For maximal strength, use the smallest and steepest grips you can safely hang from for 7-10 seconds. For endurance, use larger, more comfortable grips for longer durations (30-60 seconds).
How do I clean the CAMPUSRUNGS?
Wipe them down with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive moisture.
What is the warranty on Metolius CAMPUSRUNGS?
Please refer to the Metolius website or your retailer for specific warranty information, as it can vary.
Troubleshooting
Grip feels too slippery.
Ensure hands are clean and dry before use. Wipe down the CAMPUSRUNGS with a dry cloth to remove excess chalk.
Difficulty holding onto the grips.
This is expected due to the challenging nature of the grips. Start with easier grips or shorter hang times and gradually increase difficulty as strength improves. Ensure proper warm-up.
Mounting hardware feels loose.
Immediately stop use and re-tighten all mounting screws or bolts. Ensure they are secured into solid wood backing.
Experiencing finger or tendon pain.
Stop immediately. Consult a medical professional. Ensure you are properly warming up before use and resting adequately between sets and sessions.
