Passive hangs not only improve basic grip strength but, if done correctly, also decompress the spine, help develop core stability and open your shoulders while stretching the pecs and lats.
To Practice:
1️⃣Using a belt, yoga strap, robe belt – whatever you have – hook it over the corner of an open door and then slam the door shut.
2️⃣With your back to the strap, wrist wrapped around it, and feet hip-width apart, squat down until your shoulder is in full flexion and hang there for 30 seconds.
3️⃣Use your legs to reduce the pressure as much as you need to. A little discomfort in your shoulder is OK, but you shouldn’t feel pain.
4️⃣If hanging from the strap or full flexion are impossible, stand next to a set of shelves and simply place your hands at a level that you can bear.
