MAX R Training Log 10-28-10

Warm Up
10,20,30,40 moves with approx. 3-5 minutes between rounds.

1 set of 4x4 (REDS) easy.
I should do a full 4x4 workout. Chad believes that it will help my climbing more than the hangboard or the campus board.

Mike and I boulder a few of the new problems.
RED and white

Skill, Strategy, route reading training.
We made out problems with small finger buckets, with some dynamic moves.
Very good

Campus Training Day2
Ladder 1-3-4-6-7 (2 sets with 1 minute rest between sets) VERY GOOD
Touches 1-3-1 (3 sets with 2 minutes rest between sets) VERY GOOD
Touches 1-3-2-3-2-3-2-3 (2 sets for each arm with 2 minutes rest between sets) HARD

Conditioning
3x3 wall walks - This was very hard at the 3rd set.

1 set of Front Lever Rows approx. 5 rows.

**This was a very good day of training**

Special Note:
Next time don't skip the 4x4 and do some lock off training.

last set I campus down
Felt very strong and campusing didn't hurt fingers or elbows.
* Wall walks between campus sets (getting strong with these)

2 sets of 5 hangs with 5 seconds between hangs
*felt strong, made all of them with open crimp.

Max Strength Training log 10-25-2010

Got to the climbing gym too late *8:30pm.
Did 3 sets across the traverse wall.
1. This is working good at building speed on moving hands and feet, but the angle of the wall probably doesn't help develop any real bouldering skills.

2. Started bouldering and couldn't get up any problems with ease.
All the problems felt hard.
What is the problem, after weeks of strength training.
Les is getting really strong, climbing Light Greens after a few tries.

3. This was supposed to be the first campus session but didn't have time.

4. Went home and tried to do a HIT workout but didn't have much energy.

5. Front lever conditioning on the gymnastic rings. Very hard on my shoulders, why?
I think that training the German hangs is making my shoulders weaker.
6. some push ups
