Hi all,
Hoping for some quick, straightforward advice to save me trawling through reams and reams of click-baity training articles that make me want to cry.
Never really bothered with proper training up until the last lockdown. Forced myself to get psyched for it this time round to avoid physical and mental collapse.
I generally find it pretty boring so I've motivated myself by taking bits I've seen elsewhere and adding time constraints to add an element of Pointless Arbitrary Challenge.
So, I've been doing the following, more or less every other day unless I've been out climbing at our local urban traverse wall:
- 6 slow shrug pull-ups every 2 mins (30 seconds on, 90 off) for 20 mins (saw Shauna do something similar, but more and in less time!)
- 12 second hang on bottom edge of Beastmaker 1000, on the minute for 10 mins
- 3x Lattice 6 min core thing. The "Dive Team" one off youtube.
- 10 second hang on top edge, on the minute for 10 mins (recent addition after realising that it was possible #gainz)
The loose thinking behind the time frames, other than PAC, is that I don't want to add weight and risk pulling down my ancient doorframe.
Occasionally been having a 5 min rest at the end and going for a hang to failure on the bottom edge. 25/1/21 managed 26s, 25/2/21 managed 48s.
So, anyone who's into this sort of thing got any thoughts or tweaks to make? Any thoughts appreciated!
