  • Soon I'll be going to Flatanger, the cave that hosts a chunk of the world's hardest routes, such as Silence (9c/5.15d) and B.I.G (9c/5.15d). In today's video I train in preparation for a trip to Flatanger using a gigantic playground.
    Huge thank you to ‪@EricKarlsson‬ for joining me on this session and Cordelia for filming!

    I’ve made it to Flatanger already, and believe it or not but this was actually the perfect training for it. I think if I trained to climb this a few times per day for a few weeks it would be great preparation for the climbing here, as it’s around the same length. A lot of the holds are a little bit better on the routes, but you have difficult boulders in between everything, so with good endurance on jugs you can manage to recover for the hard boulders. Keep your eyes peeled for future videos from the gorgeous cave! 👀

    • @sysdollarsystem
      @sysdollarsystem 8 днів тому +13

      If you are going to seriously use this for training could I humbly suggest that you a) don't use the bars at all and b) add some variation on the long drags by moving out to the edges of the staircase and back and diagonally through to provide more consistent finger difficulty while adding some more "awkward" positioning.

      @@tegridyfarms6197 will try and do a route called Odin’s Eye and see how much endurance I can build! Very cool climbing, but I struggle a lot with kneebars and the cave is quite dependent on them, so I’m currently figuring out bathang rests and other tricks to avoid the kneebars 😅

    Mind over matter, it's amazing how sheer willpower can allow you to push yourself far past every physical limit you thought you have, to "kick in the fourth gear" as you said. It makes sense for survival reasons and I'd guess for most people that's the only time they'll experience it since you'll need to reach "I was gonna die before giving up" mental state, but if you manage to push yourself to experience it safely it's one of the best feelings in the world at least personally.

    Since it is a man made structure, all the round "holds" are identical and all the flat "holds" are identical - which probably makes this climb even harder for your grip and CNS, as the exact same muscles work all the time. Where as on a natural rocks, there will be variation, tireing out more different parts of the grip musculature.
    Well done, young man. Now you just need to do it a couple of times a day for a couple of weeks 👍👍
