Recent achilles rupture and surgery. I may or may not be able to climb at all for the next 4 months and my annual Thanksending trip is coming up at that same time. I wanna be in top shape when it comes around. I'm beating the crap out a the weights and the pullup bar. Wondering about what's reasonable (or slightly more than reasonable) to do on my hangboard over the course of a given week. I've been doing every other day on a beginner to intermediate training plan found online.

After injuring my ankle I ent three days a week which seemed to produce nice results. I suspect every other day would have been fine with an extra day off here and there as I felt I needed it. And I’m 52.

Just look into the anderson brothers for something like this. I know one of them climbs very little and does more training than actual climbing. I like climbing so it doesn't work in my world, but i am sure there is some information in there that would suit your situation.

Friend went through this with an acl tear over the winter. They found two days off in between the higher volume RCTM repeaters worked best.

If you aren't climbing, how often can you post on MP?

How long u been climbing? If under 3 yrs ease into hang boarding, I know it's the rage these days but your muscles will develop B4 tendons joints ligaments etc.

imo the answer wouldn't be that different when climbing versus not climbing. I used to do hangboard sessions 2x per week while climbing significant amounts. Then in the off season I don't really do much more than that.... tendons are slow to recover. Hangboard is stressfull. I personnally think your best bet is 2 good session per week.
