It's Hard To Argue Against Being STRONGER | Integrating Strength, Finger Training, and Mobility

[@climbscience4813]

Very well layed out! In my opinion it highlights an extremely underrated topic: Training for maintenance. In my experience, I can maintain my strength with about a 3rd or half of the training I do to progress. So, not only for performance phase do I need to keep my adaptations, but also if I have a phase that concentrates on endurance. Either way, knowing the minimum you have to do to maintain, allows you to focus all of what's left of your time & effort on progressing one aspect. Then you swtich the focus on something else & repeat. 🙂

'Continuing to show up' - that's what I'm determined to do. Some days I have better workouts than other days however I just show up each week for all my sessions and try and do my best.

Your Pitch One plan was such a boon to me when I was starting to train again after a long long break. Good to see your content here!

Ive been doing this for a while, and the heavy stength exercise csn REALLY increase hormones, increasing finger strength substantially. My common triple is deadlifts, splits pulses, and max hangs, and my max hangs are always stronger after deadlifts than they are in isolation.

[@codyleehanson]

At 4:58, you say “I’m going to do three sets of my heavy dead lifts then 30-50 seconds for mobility” Do you mean 3 reps of deadlifts? Or do you do three sets of three for each round?

[@ClimbStrongTV]

3 reps for each round in this example. So 9 deadlifts total in that block.

Nice 👍 thanks for the informations

Any tips for diet? I am not sure how much protein I should take because I don't want to build muscle and I am not sure if strength needs any specific nutrition or amount.

[@ClimbStrongTV]

Protein isn't the driver for hypertrophy...rather, hypertrophy is driven by medium-intensity, higher volume training. The general recommendation for athletes is somewhere close to 1g per pound of bodyweight, but you should probably consult a dietician for specifics.

Can't believe this amazing content is free! Also, what's the rock climb/area @9:30?

[@ClimbStrongTV]

The route is "Addiction" at the Sinks Canyon Main Wall.
