Love those videos! :) A question to Maddie: I noticed that a lot of the world cup climbers wear this sports bra, and as a fellow female climber I was always curious if you get it in PR or if it's just really good so everyone gets it themselves :D
Haha it's definitely just personal preference! I feel like Lululemon is really popular in climbing - especially in Canada so we all sort of gravitate towards it!
Hi Zach, I'm a veteran outdoor sloper climber (as well as an indoor climber), and I think the term "palm press" is highly misleading. The bottom line is that you're engaging a sloper, and having the fingers facing downward or out to the side doesn't change things that much. Sure, you drive a lot of force through the area of your palm near the wrist, but don't forget about what the rest of your hand is doing!
Hey, what's ur best advice for preventing finger injuries? Do you have some prehab routines for the fingers, like hangboarding with feet on the ground or something? I've been climbing for a year and pretty much every few months my fingers get sore even though I climb only twice a week.
Your fingers might feel sore simply because they are adapting, especialy when you've been climbing for only 1 year. Do they feel sore all week every day or do they feel better as you rest more? Also at what level of finger strenght are you at (what edge and weight can you hang)?
Yes I agree I think since it’s only been one year your fingers are probably still adapting! Personally I don’t have much of a prehab routine so I’m not the best person to ask. But I would recommend working on some extensor exercises just for overall hand/finger heath. I would also hold off on any hangboard training for at least another year, and I’d say you should up your climbing volume (as long as it’s not too much on your body) before you start incorporating hangboard!
@@Arthur-ru5mm I was having "adapting" kind of soreness during the first 4-5 months of climbing. But now every few months some finger would start hurting at a particular place (usually at the base). I usually take a few weeks of rest until the pain is gone and then I slowly get back into climbing hard. It annoys me because I think I'm already pretty careful with my training: I train only twice a week (maybe that's the problem?), take rest when I feel it's needed, do antagonist strengthening exercises, avoid crimps as much as I can and yet I still get my fingers tweaked often. I don't do any hangboarding and don't know what my max hangs are.
@@richardsonsclimbing Thanks for the advice! Definitely thinking about upping climbing volume to 3x/week so my fingers could get used to the load faster.
People make fun of me for inside flagging all the time, but its a super useful technique that offers stability and efficiency (not having to switch feet)
Your vlogs are super nice and I watch them all. Unfortunately, Maddy always seems very annoyed and angry to me, especially the way she is with you. It seems to me that she doesn't want to be in the videos at all.
That’s definitely not true! She loves filming these videos! Our sense of humour is slightly on the harsher side and we love to tease. Since we are just starting to put out vlogs more of our personality is coming out, and if anything we feel more comfortable on camera and are able to be ourselves more!
Knowing Maddie, she definitely just has a little bit of a "deadpan" type of humour, which can be hard to get sometimes if you're not the same way! I don't think I've actually ever seen her angry in the whole time that I've known her haha she's like the sweetest person! :)
There is a word that describes the fake (or exaggerated) bickering of lovers: Oodal. The Tamil believe that love (and sex) without a little squabbling is boring.
