Hey !
I only posted here a long time ago, about the beastmaker. Well I bought the beast, trained from time to time on it. This summer, I decided to raise up my training, by doing two to three sessions on it a week. I started to improve the difficulty of the holds, and suddenly, a pain in the right ring finger. I had the exact same on the left hand a year ago, on a nasty crimp at Bleau. Last year, I slowly went back to climbing and it was ok after two months on tape and calm. It was in august... This year I managed the thing really bad, by moving to another town and trying new gyms, or drunkenly crimping on doors. Tss. So I decided to take January and even if needed February of rest. Taping just to remember not to stress the finger.
But here are my questions, considering that except this, I'm at the best athleticism level I've ever been. Lock-off, core strength, etc. Can I keep on training the upper body, pull up and lock off etc, even with this ? The tension on the fingers while locking isnt too hard ? If so, is there a way to keep those muscle strong ?
Also, one of my weakness is flexibility. I haven't really check the forum for this (though I'll do so as soon as I'll send this), but what is your favorite exercises for legs flexibility (hips are OK, back of the leg is shit) ? In how long can I expect improvement ?
Thanks for the reading and the thoughts you might give me !
