Presume some jesting there mate? My tendons currently feel like they will explode if i do any more than 4 days hard bouldering a week.CheersTim
i suggest you need to do more twitching else you're likely to end up muscular inbalances.

Your body just adapts. Like Houdini said, the key is quality not quantity - do an hour or so, then stop before you start feeling tired, and you'll be able to climb ache-free the next day. After a while you'll be able to do longer and longer sessions for 5 or 6 days in a row.
aye already climb a lot but i mean bouldering that many days.
hmmm I'm dubious, you simply cant be training as effectively after an extended period as you were at the start, imo its necessary to rest much more than your post suggests.
Hi, well that's my intention this winter anyway to increase the power and strength training. But i have found in the past that the more power based activities you do (rather than endurance) the more likely you are to injure yourself. Certainly appears to be the score in my own experience. Definately gonna keep one session as routes to keep the stamina going (im a sportclimber/boulderer rather than a boulderer/sportclimber so endurance is also important to me )cheersTim
position you're thumb over the a2 area of a finger and press. I have one finger on my right hand which feels tender when i press it. the other fingers are ok but this one is ok to climb on but feels like this when i press it. It's been like this for a few weeks, but no worse. repetative training ache? or sign of a tear. i.e.back off a bit?CheersTim
