Hello Marzi,
As people have said 4 weeks is a little short to see much physiological adaptation. However that doesn't mean you can't crack 6a again on your trip.
Step 1: Identify a non physical weakness. What is stopping you from
climbing 6a right now?
Step 2: Train that weakness
Fear of falling: Stop top roping and lead everything at your indoor wall, including your warm up climb. Lead outside, lead, lead and do some more leading. If that becomes a doddle start leading routes indoors you know you will come off try and lead a 6a have a go on a 6b!
Footwork: Practice footwork drills to death on your crappy kids wall and then stress test those skills on climbs at your local wall
Drill 1: Silent feet place feet without making a banging sound,
start off slow and methodical and then build up to your normal
climbing speed.
Drill 2: Back-stepping. Are you using the outside edge of your foot
when you climb? On your kids wall or the base of your indoor wall
try traversing left to right facing with your body facing left.
Now traverse right to left with your body facing right. Try and
identify where movements feel easier or harder when facing this way
and then incorporate them into your route climbing.
Weight loss: I don't know you or your weight so I am cautious about suggesting this but if you have weight to lose then dropping weight in a healthy way will improve your climbing. If you are already a stick insect then please ignore this you will make your climbing/health worse.
Step 3: Tactics can have a massive impact. Get a good night sleep, don't eat a massive lunch and make sure you are happy with your belayer, the route and all the equipment before you leave the ground.
Step 4: Perfect play. Try really hard on the route but concentrate on enjoying each move not on the end result.
If you would like any more info give me a pm.
