Ultra Fitness Gear 51″ Climbing Peg-Board – Advanced Upper Body & Cardio Training

The climbing pegboard by Ultra Fitness Gear revolutionizes home and gym workouts by combining upper‑body strength training with cardiovascular conditioning. At 51.3″ long and 12″ wide, this sturdy birch plywood board mounts securely to any concrete wall using included hardware. Two standard climbing dowels allow for dynamic drills—remove and reinsert pegs to ascend, descend, and perform varied pull‑up variations. Ideal for CrossFit, Metolius climbing, gymnastics, and parkour, the pegboard intensifies latissimus, biceps, and chest activation more than rope climbs or muscle‑ups. Burn fat faster than steady‑state cardio and improve stamina, coordination, and agility—elevate your athleticism with every grasp and swing.

Training Benefits & Techniques

• Interval Sprints: Combine pegboard climbs with burpees or box jumps for HIIT circuits.

People Also Ask

What muscles does pegboard climbing work?

Pegboard climbing primarily targets the latissimus dorsi, biceps, chest, shoulders, and forearms. Secondary activation occurs in the core, lower back, and grip muscles.

Is pegboard climbing good cardio?

Yes—pegboard climbs elevate heart rate quickly, combining strength training with cardiovascular endurance to burn more calories than steady‑state exercises.

How do I progress on a pegboard?

Start with fewer pegs and shorter climbs. Gradually increase height, reduce rest periods, or widen peg spacing to challenge strength and coordination.

Can beginners use a climbing pegboard?

With proper installation and scaled workouts, beginners can build foundational strength by practicing short climbs and holds, then progress safely over time.

Maintenance & Safety Tips

• Regular Inspection: Check dowels and plywood for wear or cracks; replace damaged components immediately.
• Grip Care: Clean the board with a slightly damp cloth to remove chalk or sweat; avoid harsh chemicals.
• Protective Matting: Place gym mats underneath to cushion falls and protect flooring.
