Try and make/keep the body strong by doing bodyweight exercises every other day.
Sasquatch, when I'm hanging off the fingerboard I have to bend my legs to stop my feet hitting the floor. I could make something to put toes on but it would be very far back for it to work. It'd be like I was climbing a huge overhang - maybe no bad thing....
Sounds like you're doing some sort of low to mid intensity power endurance training (you don't mention whether you're failing at the end of the last set). Ways to progress it would be keep the set the same and gradually reduce the rest time down to 2-3 mins. You'd have to experiment reducing in 20 or 30 second steps to see what works - by 'works' = what you can manage and fail at late on in the last set. Or go to 4 sets and fail then. Need to fail though or it's too easy for PE and instead you're working aerobic fitness, at some point on a scale of intensity. Not necessarily a bad thing, just depends what you want to do outside.You'll plateau with this sort of fitness within 4-6 weeks (for the PE), according to current popular theory.Thought about working finger strength? You could get strong as fuck on your fingerboard, just google a standard finger strength program and stick with it 3 times a week for 4-6 weeks. This would involve max effort hangs for 5-8 seconds, a short rest, and repeat for 5-8 reps. Lots of variations on the theory, have a read of the beastmaker blog or Moon's site. 1,2 or 3 sets of each grip type with 4-7 different grip types depending on your board. Takes around 45 mins to 1hr.30 depending on number of grip types and sets. It helps to be able to take weight off in a recordable way for working 2 and 3 fingers on small holds but it isn't vital.As ever it all depends what you want to be good at outside.
Weights are for pussies! No, bodyweight stuff like press ups, L-sits, supermans. Basically things were your limbs are as far apart as they can be, or you're struggling to hold a position. Mine at the mo is every other day:Planche leans, L-sits, crab hold, arched holds, back raise, advanced frogSo that's 6 exercises, 5 sets of each. Start off at what you feel comfortable with ie 20 secs of all except L-sits and frog where you'll prob do 10. If 20 is your bench for the others a minute and half rest between sets.Type in callisthenics on YouTube, really good stuff on there.Obviously this is a supplement to finger work
