I'm having trouble on the slopers. My fingers sweat a decent bit, but even with chalk my fingers slowly slip off. Is there something wrong with my technique? Also, anyone have any tips for increasing core strength for L-hangs?

[metolius]

@L0gray To reach any strength goal, you just need to find an easier way to perform the given task that can be made progressively more difficult as you improve. To improve on the slopers, you can try using a sloper with one hand and a better hold with the other.

[metolius]

Weight the non-sloper hand as much as you need to in order to hold onto the sloper with your other hand. As you improve, weight the non-sloper hand less or use a worse hold so more weight goes onto the sloper. You can also try having a training partner grab your waist and give you just enough help to hold the slopers.

[metolius]

To improve at L hangs, start by doing them with both knees bent. As you progress try to straighten one leg while keeping the other bent. Here again, you can have a training partner give you enough help to perform the movement. Just be sure not to slip off the training board with someone holding your feet up.

This is a great workout however, I'm finding it hard to do all the pull-ups. I don't think I'm strong enough yet. Do you have any suggestions to make them a bit easier so I can complete all of them?

[metolius]

@MrSilversilent Also you can do negatives. Use a chair so you are at the top of a pull-up and under you own weight slowly lower but don't go all the way to the bottom, stop while your elbow still has a slight bend. And repeat

@metolius Thanks for that, it makes so much more sense now.

I've taken a picture of the Project Fingerboard and labelled it up as above. I thought your viewers might like to be able to download it. I've got it on my phone so I can refer to it when doing the workouts.
