Portable hangboard for grip and finger strength training

Abstract

A novel portable grip and finger strength training hangboard device allows a user to perform weightlifting exercises, with a focus on grip strength training. The device is unique as it eliminates a user of intermediary items such as ropes, or bolts for latching onto a source of resistance. The source of resistance is gym equipment comprising dumbbells, barbells, and pullup bars. The device has two main components: a gripping mechanism and a built-in hook anchor. The user interacts with the gripping mechanism and adjusts their hands to the desired grip, such as a pinch grip or a crimp grip. The gripping mechanism of the device has varying embodiments and features comprising grooves, loops and ridges. The built-in hook anchor of the device quickly latches on to the source of resistance and allows the user to easily change resistance from one workout to next.
