You develop upper body strength just by doing bouldering. Seriously, don't wait until you think you have enough, just go out and do it. It may feel foolish at first but you will pick up technique which won't happen on a pull up bar or hangboard

Definitely agree. Bouldering is not about upper body strength until you reach a certain level. It's mostly about technique and placement
