Dead Hang: Pull-Up Coach

Why Dead Hang?

Measure where you are. Plan where you are going.

1

A plan built around your level

Measure controlled hang time and pull-up capacity, then start with a plan you can actually perform.

2

More than hanging

Build the full pull-up system with scapular pulls, assisted hangs, hollow holds and grip work.

3

Make progress visible

Save sets and challenge results, then create a video recap when footage exists or an animated progress story when it does not.

Training system

Hangs, support work and progress you can see.

Detailed starting assessment

Record hang time from zero seconds with intermediate values, then assess pull-ups separately from assisted reps through 20+.

Editable personal plan

See every set, rep and duration in the suggested workout, edit the plan or build your own.

Weekly challenges

Reassess at useful intervals, compare results with earlier records and update the next target.

Optional sensor tracking

Compatible Apple Watch and AirPods devices are detected automatically; unavailable controls stay hidden and every sensor can be enabled or disabled in Settings.

Camera and sharing stories

When camera footage exists, clean readable metrics sit over the video; without footage, the app creates an energetic animated story.

Outdoor Mode

Higher contrast keeps timers, targets and essential controls readable in bright outdoor conditions.

At the gym or outdoors

Training paths that adapt to your goal

Starting from zero

People who cannot yet complete a pull-up, or can only perform assisted reps, get a controlled starting path.

Working toward a first pull-up

Track hanging, scapular control, trunk stability and assisted repetitions in one plan.

Training on outdoor bars

Use Outdoor Mode to read essential workout information quickly under bright daylight.

Sharing a milestone

Turn a best set, weekly gain and next target into a video or animated story.

FAQ

What to know before you begin

Is the camera required?

No. Camera use is optional. Existing footage becomes a video recap; without footage, the app creates an animated visual story from your results.

Do I need an Apple Watch or AirPods?

No. The app detects compatible devices and hides controls for hardware that is not present. Sensors can also be enabled or disabled manually in Settings.

Can I change the generated plan?

Yes. You can review exercises, sets, repetitions and durations, edit the suggestion or build your own plan.

Does the app provide medical advice?

No. Dead Hang is a training and progress tool, not a medical assessment. Stop if you feel sharp pain, numbness, dizziness or loss of control.

Where is my training data stored?

Assessment, plan and progress records stay on your device. Optional diagnostics, anonymous analytics and subscription services process only the limited data described on the privacy page when configured.
