RE: Exercising - not a blog

Not to mention, strong fingers are essential in advanced climbing. At the early stages foot placement and balance is much more important (and overusing your fingers can result in life long ailments) but when you start climbing some difficult routes you really need to have the finger strength. Check out this video of one of the best climbers in the world doing a ONE ARM ONE FINGER pull up (he has climbed many of the worlds highest skyscrapers without ropes):





I hope you guys appreciate how outrageously difficult this is. Anyway, just saying there is a practical use for finger strength (maybe not in martial arts but in climbing and many other sports there is).
