W - rest. Few beer sin the evening.
Perhaps people who understand training better than me can help me out- I'm gaining fitness in terms of being able to do more stuff before I get tired but still lagging quite far behind in terms of strength fitness. Basically whichever energy system it is that makes you out quickly of breath after doing a few pullups rather than steadily out of breath when running for ten minutes is what I need to improve. How do I do that?
Not sure I'm doing max hangs correctly, I'm basically using it as a pyramid as I'm scared of injury but not all of the hangs are maximal. Should I instead do something like two sets of "warm-up" weight and then maximal for six sets?

Classically you would scale the pyramid like you are doing until fully recruited then do a few max hangs and stop but when I train its all mainly guesswork.

What size edges are you hanging Murph?I've recently started trying max hangs for the first time and I'm not sure what the best balance is between smaller edge vs. adding more weight. Intuitively, hanging lots of weight from relatively big holds (>20mm) seems less applicable to the things I'm training for, which generally involve moving between <20mm edges, but what do i know? Does beastly strength on bigger holds transfer better to pulling on small holds?
Shark - got a link? I’m interested in digging in a bit more.
The Lopez research is pretty low quality - I wouldn't base much on it. I would tend to echo the Anderson brothers - do what's most applicable to what you're training for
Might be I put too much time into warm up hangs but when I try to take a shortcut in the warmup I just can’t hang as hard.
