{"product_id":"metolius-nano-rings","title":"Metolius Nano Rings - Portable Climbing Training Holds","description":"\u003cp\u003eMetolius Nano Rings are portable wooden training holds that hang from a cord, so you can train finger strength anywhere you can loop a rope: a pull-up bar, a rafter, a door-frame bar or a tree branch. No drilling and no mounting. They suit climbers who travel or rent, and lifters and grapplers who want hang and finger work without installing a hangboard. Sold as a single ring or as a pair.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat It Trains\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinger strength on edges:\u003c\/strong\u003e four edge depths (10, 15, 20 and 25 mm) for open-hand and half-crimp hangs.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrip endurance on jugs:\u003c\/strong\u003e a 40 mm finger jug and a 40 mm full-hand jug for longer hangs, pull-ups and warm-ups.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTwo hands working independently:\u003c\/strong\u003e each ring hangs on its own cord, so the rings move with your shoulders instead of locking your hands in place like a fixed board.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSingle or Pair\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMost people want the pair: one ring per hand for two-hand hangs and pull-ups.
