2 what will having a higher scope of rungs/holds do?
I was wondering if anyone could just give me a few tips with training specifically with this, this can also include before hand warm ups e.g sit ups ect to get the blood pumping ect.aims are generally improve core strength and finger strength, and improvement in arm strength would be nice too, but i think my finger strength is what's holding me back most at the moment.also how long to wait in-between training sessions (rest days) although i know this will be different for everyone and how intense a training session was.
1 are beast makers that good?
to adding weight when training, anyone got any good household items that can be strapped to you to add weight? or does everyone just buy weights?
but i think my finger strength is what's holding me back most at the moment.
I have been climbing for 4 months
i can pull out 13 pull ups on just a pull up bar, on the slopping holds on either side i can do 10 on the pinch i can do 8 and on the crimp bar i can currently do 6.
I currently boulder at max 6c have been climbing for 4 monthsif you need additional info to help me work out a training regime then please do prod and probe me. cheersHaydn

Seriously, looks like a good training session to me. assume you do the 7on3off for one minute.but I can only re-iterate what others have said. 4 months climbing isn't very long and if you push it too much too soon you'll serious fuck your tendons. Take it easy for the first few sessions. If you experience any pain then stop, don't kid yourself that'll be alright, stop.

a climbing wall thats 45 minuets away is a" hell "of a drive
I think haydn jones has been unduly taken to task here. 1/2 times a week to an indoor wall which is a 1.5hr round trip away and a day outside and the rest home training seems a not unreasonable dedication to the cause - it is probably what I would do in his shoes.
