More endurance than cardio; the limiting factor >20 reps is muscle fatigue, rather than strength
@mattpenman2284Ай бұрын
Meh it's more complicated than that. I can do 50 reps of 10kg squat, and only 100@100kg. If I was half I wouldn't be able to to as many 100kg squats but probably just as many 10kg

@@mattpenman2284 I'm not exactly sure what you mean. By "muscle fatigue", I mean that even though your heart and lungs aren't working hard, the muscles run out of energy and can't recover fast enough

Muscles run out of oxygen and your cardiovascular system struggles to supply enough to keep going. AFAIK better cardio means it takes longer for you to deplete all the oxygen.

No it's his muscles giving out, his heart and lungs are not going to give out after that short amount of activity no matter how bad your cardio is (unless it's an all out sprint or something similar). Let's say hypothetically he had that strength and marathon runner cardio, is he going to just keep doing pull ups until he hits 50 or more, highly unlikely. He reached muscular/technical failure on the pull ups and his lats and other pulling muscles couldn't perform the movement anymore. Also this whole thing of once you go over 20 reps of an exercise it becomes muscular endurance/cardio training is complete bro science.

@@ashb4275idk man. I'm pretty sure his muscles could have produced enough force for one more rep on account of the concentric part of the movement not slowing down a ton. If you put a gun to his head I'm 80% sure he could grind out another rep.

If you're heavy and can do 10 pull-ups you're strong in absolute strength terms because you're lifting more weight. Lighter people can have higher relative strength , but they rarely have high absolute strength.

@caiolara165819 күн бұрын
There’s actually plenty of chest involved with climbing, your arms are often stretched and you have to push IN to hold yourself, which is using your chest muscle. What climbers usually don’t have much of is triceps, which is mostly pushing upwards, not inwards like chest. That said climbers don’t usually get the bulky chest but more so the pretty defined, shredded chest. And I agree he probably does some lifting other than just climbing - diet is also a big factor.

He's probably doing standard lifts (deadlift, squat, benchpress, overhead press, etc). Plus eating high protein. He may have even done a bulk/cut cycle. That's definitely a more aesthetic physique than the average rock climber, though he may just have awesome genetics have that aesthetic more naturally.

James what's your height/weight? It's rare to find decent climbers nowadays who aren't built like skinny calisthenics athletes. No hate, it's just not the physique i'm going for. You and Tony Yaniro (who was a climber a while back, like maybe in the 80s or so) are the only couple of climbers I know who have a physique that looks strong/more like a bodybuilder. You also lift a bit as well as climbing. Point being, I love your physique and the fact you're decently strong at lifting, at least compared to most climbers

@googlefaps58833 ай бұрын
Climbers goals are to be efficient. Which means the involvement of legs and not how many repetition ur biceps and back can contract so they don’t do pull ups a lot. Calisthenics do pull ups for a living and so do gymnasts. So not surprising in theory
@michaellopez20702 ай бұрын
Not all gymnasts have good pull up numbers. Climbers certainly would do better than calisthenics athlete in a measurement of the limiting strength factor of climbing, which tends to be finger strength rather than pulling strength. There are no elite climbers that don’t have exceptional finger strength, especially for their body weight.

I started climbing frequently 2 months ago, before I climbed I would do some basic workouts - bench, squat, DL, press, pull-ups. I stopped all of them when I started because it was too much for my system in the beginning. Recently went back and my lifts for everything has gone up tremendously. I was probably at 3 max pull-ups (full ROM) now I can do 10 easily. Rock climbing is my favorite way to workout cause it doesn't feel like a workout
