Cool, thanks for replying. While everyone was giving their advice it struck me that without actually knowing what you were aiming for, the advice could be wildly off the mark!
Few questions...-In your 4 week cycles do you place the overload week 3 and de-load on week 4.-What exactly does a de load week look like.? Half the volume / Half the intensity for example?...
There’s only one page in 9 out of 10 climbers where Dave Max talks about how personal circumstances affect performance.Edit: Here it is it’s nowhere near as inflammatory as anyone seems to remember it.
I've seen it suggested that a staggered schedule might work better if for older climbers, something like easy week (22%), hard week (35%), deload week (15%), medium week (28%). I might try this myself.
