I am a 51 year old climber of over 30 years. I never trained in my 20’s. From just climbing I got pretty good at climbing but by age 28 I slowly developed injuries that put me on the DL during ages 29-30 when I should have been peaking. You kids these days should thank your lucky stars to have this awesome FREE info so easily available. I wish I knew this stuff in 1996! I’m trying to climb “hard” again and I’m thankful for this info. It is definitely helping an old injury prone climber get back into shape.

Snap! I recently saw a video on KZbin by a new climber that was about how quickly he could climb 6c. He managed to do it after something like 51 hours of climbing. But was climbing about 4 times a week pretty quickly straight out of the gate! I wanted to peel back the layers. You’ve climbed one ‘6c’ route on an indoor route. 1. That you dogged your way up on a taught top rope. The kid was already getting tendon issues. But wisdom comes with age and sometimes you just can’t tell people. I wish I could have pointed him in the direction of this video. Thanks #OP. A very valuable resource.

After more than a year of doing this mostly once a week, with a few lapses, I can say that this routine is excellent and I recommend it to my climber friends. Now my shoulders don't care about awkward moves, my fingers don't hurt (I do more finger rolls than in the video), and my hips don't snap painfully. I would, however, love an update to this video for alternative exercises, because variety.

Super helpful, and a good mellow way to improve your climbing on rest days! I've been trying to design a slightly more intense injury prevention protocol specific to *climbing on a steep basement woodie* (as that's all I do these pandemic days), mostly based on your videos. A while ago I was getting some bicep pain, and I was able to fix it with a combination of rest and your supplemental exercises. I think my issue was "bicep tendinopathy", but I'm not sure, so I tried to do some exercises for treating "climbers elbow" and "lateral epicondylalgia" as well. My main exercises that weren't already featured in this video are: Arm strength: - Bicep eccentrics (thumb up, elbow down, high weight) - Bicep eccentrics (palm up, elbow up, low weight) - Eccentric reverse curls (thumb under bar) - Reverse grip preacher curls Forearm antagonists: - Reverse wrist curls - Reverse wrist eccentrics - Open-hand pinch block repeaters Miscellaneous: - rings pushups - wide arm pushups - Eccentric wrist-to-fingers - forearm flexor and extensor stretches Any thoughts on this exercise protocol? Is it even necessary? It's possible that a lot of climbers are like me and need a protocol or steep board climbing and burley stuff. I'd love a video on this if possible!

I've been doing a lot of face pulls for a few years now, mostly because of Jason Hooper. However, I failed to understand that I was missing the balancing antagonist exercises to work the serratus anterior and I got a winged scapula that has created some shoulder and elbow problems. So, nothing against the face pulls, I just think they need to be supplemented with scapular protraction exercises to keep those shoulders balanced out!! Lesson learned the hard way from me to you.

One thing I kinda miss is some preventive work against medial epicondylitis. According to Steven Low Pronator Teres work seems to be better in remedying the elbow pain (although yuor finger and hand curls are good, too). For me, indeed pronator teres was more of an issue there and high volume light intensity really did good here.

@SirGurkendieb3 жыл бұрын
awesome as always! :) I have a question (maybe for next q&a?). what's your thought on significant hyperextension in the dip joint when climbing and training? and is training/hangboarding with avoiding the hyperextension by dropping the weight something to take into consideration? keeping in mind aspects like the risk of injury, which might be a bit higher for people with that issue and also the problem of really "loading the fingertips" when crimping and not sagging into them.
@HoopersBeta3 жыл бұрын
I have a few thoughts! Mostly related to full crimping. Full crimping can still be done but may need to be done with a much safer / slower progression and the amount of extension needs to be monitored. The body is amazing at adapating to whatever we throw at it, but the more hyperextension you get, the more stress you are placing on the volar plate and potentially the A4 and A5 pulleys which could put you at a higher risk of injury. When someone has significant hyperextension of the DIP I give them that advice, but understand it is case by case. Some people can full crimp without issue with moderate hyperextension. There isn't research (that I know of) that says X degrees of hyper extension = you should / should not do Y, so I don't want to be black and white on the matter. Rather, use caution, move slowly, and listen to your body.

Do you have any experience with Powerball? Do you think doing some of that would make for a good general forearm strength compensation and help avoid injuries? Would you recomend any particular way to use it? Or do you consider it worthless? I think it's a really cheap and easy device to have and a very portable one, so it can be used almost everywhere you are. One great thing also is that you can use it while you do other things like watching TV, having a video conference, or phoning people, so you dont necessarily have to manage to substract more time from your everyday life to put into your training. I'd love to hear what are your thougths about it. Keep it up, great channel! :)

Awesome video! Super comprehensive workout. I do have a question though - wouldn't an appropriate alternative for the sumo squats be another quad-focused exercise? Seeing that there are already nordic hamstring curls and single leg RDLs for hamstrings and lower back, using the romanian deadlift in place of the sumo squat seems to be redundant. I think it would be appropriate to use another quad-dominant exercise as an alternative to sumo, like front squat/back squat or even some kind of lunge. Otherwise the quads would be neglected in this routine which could lead to imbalances or just a general lack of strength in the quads themselves. Not to mention the anabolic benefit of working the quads and glutes!

I would agree with you here, would be interesting to replace the sumo squat with a "Horse stance" or some Patrick step-downs.

Because recruitment pulls are progressive loads they can be quite safe. Your body will limit the force because it is not an all or nothing principle but rather a progressive load / increase. If you're straight mad it is possible to pull too hard and past your bodies natural defenses though lol.
