A simple yet effective exercise, dead hangs are believed to help strengthen your grip, strengthen your shoulders, and improve posture. It also helps loosen up tight muscles and build endurance.

According to Healthline, the benefits of dead hang include strengthening your upper back, shoulders, core, forearms, hands, and wrist flexors. It can also help improve grip strength and relieve shoulder pain.

How To Perform A Dead Hang? 

Here's a step-by-step guide to performing a dead hang exercise: 

• Find a sturdy overhead bar. 
• Grip the bar with an overhead grip. 
• Lift your feet off the ground. 
• Engage your core and shoulders as you hang on the bar.
• Hold the position for as long as you can. 

While this exercise is not difficult to perform, you have to be careful with the grip. Don't loosen the grip. If you are a beginner, make sure to perform it under the guidance of an instructor.
