Yeah without my knees I'm gonna be screwed. Unless there are routes with footless sideways dynos:
. And to me, it seems that these people with a physical trainer, in the usa or elsewhere are crushing way harder than you.
But this physical trainer is coaching top athletes e.g. Daniel Woods & Courtney Sanders. I assume they are not training to suck ...
I think i tend to more agree with Paul in that a lot of these exercises are likely to have a minimal benefit to climbing and are probably mainly useful to those already maintaining a high volume of training and performance to stave off boredom, and hopefully pay off in terms of some incremental gains. Surely the vast majority are better served by a relatively simple recipe of climbing to train if you can, and hang off some shit holds if you can't.
- he ain't there average client.
Iain, any chance of more details of your multi minute repeater routine? Thanks!

But I am going to guess that they didn't suck when he started training them.

Surely the vast majority are better served by a relatively simple recipe of climbing to train if you can, and hang off some shit holds if you can't. For what it's worth, last year i couldn't climb for 3 months, 6 weeks in a gym seemed to make no difference at all; 3 weeks of fingerboarding seemed very effective indeed.
I think most people take supplementary training out of context. Doing weights, core, trx, rings, etc, etc is not supposed to make you stronger or better than me it's supposed to make you stronger or better than you, than you would be without doing them.
I see exactly 1 exercise with the kettleball Paul. And to me, it seems that these people with a physical trainer, in the usa or elsewhere are crushing way harder than you.
I will attempt to find evidence to back this up over the week.
