In my experience, hangboreding has been intense enough that, when I'm doing it, I can't really do a lot of other exercises that involve forearms (heavy finger rolls, any kind of climbing beyond easy ARCing). However, the HYP phase is a great time to work on core strength. Hangboading itself is not a bad core workout if you hold your body the right way, but mess with front levers, leg lifts, swivels, etc. I've even started doing really limited bench pressing (instead of pushups) for antagonist muscles, but I'm not sure how that's going to work out yet.
