How High Can Climber Maintain Heart Rate? (Crazy Challenge)

[@koryxd]

You just invented new category, 100V points speedrun

[@cradleofgoth]

Glitchless

[@agario5161]

when there is a new set you can do the random seed category and if you know the set it, is set seed. In addition when you dont break any beta it is glitchless.

[@cradleofgoth]

@agario5161 i feel like if you don't break any rules it's glitchless, breaking a beta is just better routing.

[@matiask7633]

First to climb burden 6 times in a row will hold the record for a long time

[@CoffeeChessRepeat]

sounds like toby segar

[@mikeroberts817]

I'm glad that doing more V-points in 17 minutes than I manage in about 3 weeks at least makes Louis pretty sweaty.

[@nilsp9426]

8:32 love this moment, this should become a clip. Now I want to go to a bouldering gym, shout "V4", run at a wall, and jump up it.

[@asharablack]

Has there ever been a Catalyst Climbing challenge without a miscount in the points score? 😂 That said, I love your videos! Always brightens my day when you upload. Oh, and great thumbnail! 😂😂

[@alecsyogacorner]

Came for the thumbnail, stayed for the Statham style vocal fry

[@Claudia18915]

Petition for Louis to do ALL future videos in this accent 🙋 The 'alright darling' has made my day 😂

[@XLessThanZ]

That was an incredible show of climbing endurance. I've always wanted to get a heart rate monitor. It's an interesting way to train. Have you ever looked into the chest strap versions. They're very accurate at real time tracking and can be setup with different heart rate ranges to workout within. As you go above or below the limits of the range it'll beep so you know to speed up or slow down. You're a great motivation Loui. I think the humor really helps.🤙🏽

[@BrendanEvan]

This was even better than expected

[@Jaro121]

That heart rate monitor was very laggy. Those efforts are crazy hard. ❤

[@sarahaddy1746]

Awight Darlin 😂😂😂

[@piotrrywczak7971]

8:35 Perfect reacton to a V4 😂

[@colemantrebor6574]

Louis please contact Storror to collab with them! They've been doing a bit of it outside, and you would be the perfect person to guide them around a gym, especially with your dynamic style which will suit them.

[@durabelle]

Yes please!!

[@nicholaslarmour5647]

Super cool video concept, I liked this way more than I thought I would. Cool to see him trying that hard with all those numbers flying around

[@joethompson11]

Damn Louis, that was impressive

[@ayuminor]

Now that's how you work around a sponsorship!

[@littleredfox6849]

insaaane challenge Mate! Terrifying Concept would not even try, but GGs to you man!

[@Gork862]

Really fun video! I don't know if anything was different with this one, but the camera felt very shaky at times. Not too bad, just a little distracting. I think maybe it was just that the shots tended to be zoomed in more? Anyway, the idea of keeping the heart rate up was really cool! It was neat to see how your heart rate actually dropped during climbs and then rose when you were running around the place looking for hard stuff.

[@iefjewoe]

That's because the optical heart rate monitor isn't updating quick enough. If he had worn a heart rate monitor with a chest strap it would have given the correct data in in the correct time(these are still the cheapest and most accurate, just not very comfortable to wear). It would spike during climbing and drop in the in-betweens of running and looking around. That would match it breathing pattern better too. That's how you can tell the data in this video is lagging.

[@ConnorHoak]

Louis has taught his employees to be bad at counting, too

[@EverdayClimber]

when climbing is cardio. I struggle to get 40 VPoints in 20 minutes, it's really impressive adding maintaining a high heart rate the entire time. Keep up the good content!

[@liliblumenberg1124]

Some wild climbing, so fun to watch. Please post the red V5 with new holes when you’ve done it! I’m so curious!

[@darkaquatus]

I usually don't respond to these videos, but I just wanna say thanks real quick for your entertaining content. I watch every single one of your videos since I started climbing 3 months ago and I love it!

[@S1KHooligan]

That thumbnail! Very fun and creative video theme.

[@jonnes__4657]

🗽 I always use a heart rate monitor on my arm (measurement on my wrist is not working correctly).... so I can compare my sessions. My max. HR in sport climbing (long routes) is about 140. To climb with 170 would be impossible for me. My resting heart rate is about 50. .

[@murrayty]

I am curious how pumped you got during this? It was fun watching because I do similar climbing easier boulders and auto belay routes back to back at higher speeds to get volume and cardio in. I used to get pumped out but recently have found I can maintain it as long as the climbs aren't too challenging, it is fun being able to get a cardio exercise in from climbing.

[@ubbychubbs4238]

POV: You're with the lads in a new gym

[@fabiopalma4429]

Endurance beast!!

[@simeoncheshmedjiev-shraik4719]

Very fun video, very entertaining, thank you. 😊

[@mozzarellab6567]

God I love this account so much

[@ramsessiereveld2824]

next one... lower your HR as fast as possible while petting Ink (honestly I just want to see Ink again... please)

[@adrianaiello1608]

Wild to watch this as someone with postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome loooool

[@paulcartwright840]

How about something similar, but nothing above V4? Basically a race around the gym....maybe even versus someone!

[@Vhjfdvbnk]

Louis, you’re the best.

[@filippobettin8944]

Brilliant video idea🔥

[@matildamostrom1462]

I cant imagine walking up to a semi hard boulder with a 170 heart rate

[@BungarangYT]

louis did the extra credit

[@ThetaWindfall]

That thumbnail though! haha

[@arzoru]

I was watching the video and had an heart stroke, out of empathy with you 😎😎

[@gregjeanblanc1269]

I wear a chest strap heart rate monitor while climbing. It's really the only way, other than taking it manually, to get an accurate heart rate during climbing. The arm monitor is better than the wrist based monitors but still lagy and didn't vary nearly as much as it would in reality. There were instances in the video where his heart actually was higher on the ground and then somehow decreased while climbing and then started going up whej he finished climbing. Unless your 60+ i can guarantee that your heart rate will go higher than 140 if you are trying hard on a sport route. If I'm redlining on a sport route in the gym, ill get to 184 ish and I'm 44.

[@zynthrex1]

Crazy

[@unvexis]

After my warmup, I can easily spike my heart rate close to max doing high-effort problems. My HRM is electrical, though, not optical. Optical sensors don’t work well on my wrist while climbing for obvious reasons.

[@hugofortuna6432]

Thought it was a Toby Segar impression 😂

[@colinburley5840]

I thought the thumb nail was Magnus, had to do a double take 🤣

[@milksushi6640]

Fully thought you were doing Toby Segar's voice at the start

[@vkotis]

Beast!

[@droomprinsesje1234]

My heartrate monitor refuses to count bouldering as exercise, I barely reach 110, even when trying hard

[@jonnes__4657]

Try sports climbing. .

[@jonnes__4657]

🗽Anaerobic training... that become sore muscles. 😜 .

[@kaylabelle5427]

I missed Louis!!!

[@cezary4824]

Its a suprise how high the HR is in your case. Havent check mine during climbing, but a full gym session in my case gives me 95 on average, Running 10 km at 5:00 pace, gives me 140 on average. Swimming ~130 with still a good pace... for me 170 would be a sprint pace. what's your current max?

[@withoutwithin]

But the real challenge: can you do 100V points with HR lower than 160?

[@yercules]

Vitality or fatality!

[@bavokegels8929]

starts dynoing bpm goes from 171 to 160

[@hannibal3143]

Proof that cardio can make anything miserable!

[@riccardo299]

When is the next Statham accent workshop?

[@ricksens5500]

This is a nice training to do it seems but you do need an almost empty gym

[@nicholasanderson9111]

Just an ignorant American, but I was hearing more Michael Cane than Jason Statham.

[@aperson7188]

😊

[@danrkelly]

All your videos must include that accent from now on. Glad that's settled.

[@Sepp2009]

but why?

[@jtsfinn5980]

What is a 👃 for anyways? Silly thing that sits on our face.

[@JustinCasey216]

My heart rate is 52 bpm most times climbing

[@jonnes__4657]

Try harder... 😜 .

[@kexerino]

That's around my resting heart rate. Are you sure it's accurate? It's not *impossible* but if you're doing hard climbs that sounds strange to me

[@lugas4270]

how high are you? hi, how are you?

[@0xf7c8]

I dont think that heartrate device is working properly. Too little variation.

[@jonnes__4657]

Yes, normally the HR comes back very quick. I use a Polar. It works well on the arm. .

[@murrayty]

It appeared to be a bit delayed, it probably uses a larger sample period/rolling average which minimizes variation. Most monitors do that to some degree as average heart rate is more important than instantaneous when working out.

[@slytherinbrian]

It's cute that you think your American audience can tell the difference between one British accent and another.

[@nathanielreichert4638]

Haha Jason Statham is basically wet Bruce Willis. He’s wet because he was in that one megalodon franchise.

I don't trust that monitor sorry Coros. Chest straps all the way,

[@solomonreinman7452]

That was really gnarly. For context, I used to be a competitive runner and my heart rate would rarely get above 160. 180 was about right for maximum effort distance races. Nowadays, climbing it almost never goes above 130. I can't imagine how brutal that must have felt. Props, Louis

[@jonnes__4657]

Same for me... I was a runner and my HR was in max. 180, on longer distances lower. In sports climbing I get max. 140, in bouldering it's lower. .

[@grodvad652]

My average heart rate when running a 12k is 174 beats per minute. It doesn’t feel too challenging to maintain that heart rate.

[@NoorSmal]

heart rates are really personal, so you can't really compare it. But it sure looked like a solid effort.

[@grodvad652]

@@NoorSmal i agree, i do probably also have a higher max heartrate since i am 17 years old.

[@solomonreinman7452]

Definitely personal, there are loose guidelines though for which rates reflect which zones. @@NoorSmal

[@shanybody]

1:58 “good at tracking things” 15:08 “10 more points to go” 😂😂

[@jasper7072]

would also be interesting to do it the other way around. More the Saw way if I remember correctly. Kepp the heart rate below

[@eceptamusic]

ikr! would love to see that

[@Kwigs_kun]

Next video: In honour of Jason Statham's latest movie, Louis tries to get 100 V points while being attacked by a swarm of bees

[@pietaripurovaara8315]

And after that 100 V-points while being attacked by the biggest megalodon anyone’s ever seen

[@cflow2013]

honestly good on you for not just editing out the v4 fails. I imagine that could be a bit of an ego hit but it's important to show that everyone can fall off of anything

[@firstnamelastname1748]

1:40-2:20 Can we all take a moment to appreciate Louis for this moment? "Ok darling... Sorry, that was inappropriate, I don't usually call my employees darling." The fact that Sadie just laughed it off in recognition of it just being a bit that maybe went a little too far really speaks volumes about Louis. On camera, he seems like such a good guy, and the fact that he has earned that goodwill from those who see him when the cameras aren't on -people like Sadie- really backs up the idea that Louis is exactly who he seems to be.

[@garronfish8227]

His style is so good even in this rush

[@Pennervomland]

The opposite of this would also be interesting. Try to keep your heartrate below a certain level throughout the entire run (probably only possible with less points though)

[@markw284]

Should have had a pair of really worn and slippy shoes. Maybe the extra bit of uncertainty would have made you slightly nervous

[@NatTay]

You should do this but the opposite - get 100 V points while keeping your heart rate below something? Would that be really easy or really hard, I dunnno

[@biquinary]

I'm so out of touch with British accents that I couldn't tell Louis was putting on a voice, even after he said so :P

[@StickyCatStudios]

Sorry to say, but you died with 2:59 on the clock when you dropped below 160 dad😢

[@travisladuke9662]

missing the dyno is basically jumping down. 5 pushups

[@stonehouse1]

I don’t remember Michael Caine being in crank

[@chaosengine4597]

perfect for gyms with timed entry fees.

[@devH_]

Damn im early

[@BreefinsKnowsBest]

Nice one louis that was hardcore

[@Duimspijker]

Comment for the algorithm.

[@matthiasnm4279]

What shoes are those?

[@chicken2433]

4:38 love that moment

[@unclethrash4810]

Great vid Louis, (darlin') I thinkna Stallone accent would work well 😂. Also some basic background context for a super intense session like this: warm up, hydration, food etc. Do you refuel after or prefuel? How bad was the DOMS? Thanks for the great content😊

[@Basti12293]

Would that looked unhealthy But it was crazy how you 'cranked' it up from 160 to 185 It was interesting to see how not resting can reduce your skills You looked quite shakey and unsecure on some climbs

[@maryjo6216]

When I run hard, I can hit a heartrate in the high 140s. Anything more starts to feel very uncomfortable. I cannot imagine climbing with any amount of technique in that state. I'm in awe. Looking at my climbing session yesterday, it doesn't look like my heart rate got past about 105 and it hovered around the 60-70s most of the time. But I'm a V3 boulderer and I'm likely not challenging myself enough, at least as compared to my aerobic capacity.

[@HourRomanticist]

on a bike it's pretty easy to maintain 180bpm for 10min and 160 for 20, but while climbing without being able to monitor it live is crazy

[@sldenn5303]

What was the caloric expenditure for this 20minutes?

[@nesivart]

This challenge was amazing yet hilarious hahahha loved it!

[@ontheballcity71]

Crank is a bit of a classic. That said, this particular form of climbing look like hard work...

[@havardbekkevold7255]

Great videos, starting follow you these days 👍you are inspiration 💪💪🎉

[@LoveAndClimbing]

I would love to see an outdoor version of this challenge in a dense bouldering area.

[@sldenn5303]

How did you come up with this idea! Wow!

[@jobverkoelen4978]

More Louis with accents 😂

[@LCPZ]

loved the video man!!!!

[@g.w.customcreations3534]

Do I spy Louis rocking purple Pythons? 😮
