Does the same thing but also works out the closing action in a less intensive way.
It depends on what you did in the meantime. I'm guessing it was a few years you climbed for the last time? And are you physically fit at the moment?
You might want to see how your body is holding up when you're back at climbing (I don't know how strong your tendons etc. are at this point) and don't overdo it in the beginning.
Depending on how you feel and how your climbing goes you can adjust from there. Imho a hangboard might be a good idea then if your tendons/fingers are up to it, but I wouldn't do it now. Too risk sensitive.
If you want to do something in the meantime you could train your fingers a bit more lightly. E.g. have a look at something like https://www.amazon.com/Handmaster-Plus-Physical-Therapy-Exerciser/dp/B00CTG3TQU and build it up slowly.
And a bit of cardio or weights in the gym won't hurt either to get your body back ready for climbing. Just don't overdo it and pay attention to your body :)
Have fun and good luck with your goals!
Frequent stand up and walk around breaks are good. The new fitbits and stuff can remind you to get up and work as well. I rock climb so my back tends to be a lot stronger than most programmers.
However, I took a break when my finger was a bit injured and after moving a ton of furniture I tweaked my back the following day- resulting in a painful and boring (painfully boring?) two days.
I generally utilize these things http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00CTG3TQU every now and then as well. Climbing (and programming 12 hours a day) can actually cause carpal tunnel, so it's doubly important for me to get my fingers strengthened.
These are nice
