Thanks, most things seemed to go my way this year. I was primed to do a bit better on the Crusher, but oh well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyonecanhappen Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 How many days a week do you train grip and do you focus on traditional strength training as well or just strictly prioritize grip training? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do grip focused work about 3-4 times a week. I don’t lift weights at all. I still like to keep my rock climbing at a high level so I go to the climbing gym once or twice a week. Climbing frequency will taper off if I have a grip competition on the horizon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Climber028 Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 Do you have any long term plans to ease off of climbing and then gain weight to do some higher level grip feats? That's sort of my decades long loose training idea. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grip wise I do one gripper day and one implement day. Anything more than that and my strength definitely decreases . Anyways very inspirational lifts man.

My goal is to get stronger in grip while staying in reasonable rock climbing shape (V10/11) so that I can still take trips with my friends and be able to have fun on most climbs. For me these goals get hard if I’m above 190lbs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boulderbrew Posted November 2, 2018 Author Share Posted November 2, 2018 Just now, Climber028 said: Definitely, I only know one guy who climbs at a high level at 195 and he's an outlier. Back in 2013 I took a year off climbing and just focused on weight lifting. I bulked up to 210 real quick. Eventually I decided to get back into climbing, but my ligaments were not ready for it. I was still able to climb V10, but after a month back in the gym, I fully ruptured my A2 pulley. Lesson learned.
