Use case
Climbing Training App
Gripp helps climbers build grip strength with structured hang programs, fingerboard tracking, and a bodyweight-adjusted Gripp Score. Train smarter between wall sessions.
For Climbers
For climbers, grip is the limiting factor on every route and every crux. Gripp gives you the structured hang programmes, fingerboard tracking, and bodyweight-adjusted scoring that climbing-specific grip training demands — so your time off the wall is building the finger strength and forearm endurance that translate directly onto rock.
A Grip Score Adjusted for Your Bodyweight
Gripp Score normalises your best hang time against your body weight, age, and gender — the fairest measure of climbing-relevant grip strength, because what matters on the wall is the ratio of grip force to mass. Two climbers with identical hang times but different body weights are not equally strong, and Gripp Score reflects that. Your score updates automatically as your training and body composition change.
Track Every Fingerboard and Every Edge
Add your fingerboards to the equipment library and Gripp links each session to the exact board and edge you trained on. A 20 mm edge and a 14 mm edge are fundamentally different stimuli, and your personal bests are tracked separately so your history always reflects the true difficulty of each session. Equipment snapshots preserve this accuracy even if you later change your gear.
Monitor Left and Right Hand Strength Independently
Grip strength imbalances between hands are extremely common in climbers and a leading cause of technique compensation. Gripp tracks Timed Side Hang personal bests separately for each hand, giving you a direct comparison that shows whether the gap is closing. The training timer labels left and right sets individually with separate countdowns, making structured one-arm training as simple to execute as a standard hang.
FAQ
Is Gripp suitable for beginner climbers?
Yes. The calibration and progressive unlocking system prevents loading that exceeds tendon capacity, making the foundation programme appropriate for climbers in their first year of structured grip training.
Does Gripp support fingerboard protocols like repeaters?
The challenge library includes protocols matching the structure of repeater and max hang methodologies, with the training timer handling all set and rest management.
Can I track hand strength imbalances?
Yes. Left and right hand personal bests are tracked as a distinct category with independent records, so you can see the gap and monitor whether it is closing.
