Kill Bill (training for the pain box)

[the lurkist]

Like pigsteak said, hold on till you think you will puke. When you are about to cave, just remember you are pushing the wall over in the pain box, filling it up with the pain that brings success and minimizing the pain that is sucking and failure.

Sweet. Thanks for the help man. I wish I could take all the info from this forum and use it, but I just don't have the time right now. However, I do know that what you have in your blog Odub I will be putting into use. This is a good forum. Also Odub, your blog is pretty respectable too.

The ideas on recovery training and working under dimishing returns were really interesting in the blog. After reading it, I actually tried a variation of it at my gym last night. Set a 27-move numbered jug problem that does a lap around our 70 degree wall, with plenty of rest spots to hang and shake. I do a lap around this problem, resting quite a bit, before starting right again into various harder (v3-v5) 10 move boulder problems.

Sounds great Camhead. It's important to know how to rest on the move, which it sounds like you're doing. Be careful not to let it affect the faster pace you need to climb on harder sections. I've seen several people try to make that "resting" pace their normal pace, and it just doesn't work. Perfect style of training for the Red!

Thanks Clifton, that's exactly what I wanna hear!

what is in the water in the Red this year..all of the sudden people want to train to climb? what happened to having a good time with your buds and being a slacker?

this training makes climbing another commercialized sport, brah. cash, gas, and beer for the crag.....

[pigsteak]

I have been corrected......it is beer, gear, and gas to the crag..it is hard to keep up with all the "cool" slogans these days.

I just got used to "it is what it is" and "siked" and "just sayin"...and now everyone wants to move on...bring back Snoop Dogg, when times were easier.

Piggie, quit bolting beautiful lines outside my ability and then I wont have to train to do them.
