Winter training31 October 2011, 11:32 amSo currently I am dreaming up activities that are measurable and motivating that will make training my weaknesses fun within a programme that fits in better with my life. Perhaps I'll need help with this. Tommy...??
Is going bouldering not a bit too obvious
6C?
Thoughts:6 hard days a week? That's hardcore. (I guess if you're taking a recovery week after 3 weeks that's maybe not as hard as it sounds, but I never seem to get around to actually having my recovery weeks! Maybe you're more disciplined.) Anyway, I can't imagine I'd be fresh enough to do 1 arm hangs on 5th day on and AnCap on 6th day on. Maybe I'm just pathetic, but it sounds optimistic to me...No maintainance of PE/aeropower? I throw in 1 session a week (before a rest day), since I can get away with being a bit tired for this session, and I think it's worth maintaining it rather than letting it slide totally...
I believe the idea is that bouldering, ancap and hangs should combine to give good strength gains. (if you look at the old post shark's got a fair bit of bouldering and hanging planned)
If AnCap is going to stimulate strength gains I would guess the circuit would need to be systematic in nature? ie all pinches, or all gaston crimps, or the 10 - 20 moves would just be too dilute? Just a thought but I've tried system bouldering and it has a fair degree of PE involved so I think I'll look at doing sytem stuff for some AnCap rather than AnCap and hope for some strength.
