  • @davidbecker54
    @davidbecker54 Рік тому +30

    The most interesting thing here to consider is that given Emil's results for Critical Force and what he said he spends a lot of time doing versus what he thinks he's best at, shows us just how wrong we can get it sometimes in our head, but get it right in our bodies. Given these things, he seems much more inclined to be better at producing a semi-high strength for a long period of time because he trains that all the time! But for whatever mental reason he still tells himself that he's best at power, something we're probably all guilty of throughout our training. Another consideration here you mention is timing. There is still a long way to come in measuring skill and technique. SO many pro climbers spend so much time climbing lots of different things consistently that they learn to use the strength they have better and thus don't need more strength like the rest of us plebeians! Definitely what I admire most about these high-level climbers

      Great question! I'd add bench press too as this is good for 1RM or 2RM tests. The main barrier here is equipment. Our remote assessment is designed so that the majority can do it at a regular climbing gym. We've found many gyms still don't have a decent weight lifting set up. In many cases, just a hangboard and a bar with a few weights is all that's available.

    • @zacharylaschober
      @zacharylaschober Рік тому +1

      I wouldn't as initial high velocity work is usually quite fatigue resistant. most skilled athletes should be able to produce a similar velocity of pullup with appropriate rest between each set for the first pullup, and then with fatigue will see this drop significantly on following reps. Those rapid contractions will function similar, producing strength at velocity, but the RFD does seem quite off for someone of Emil's capabilities.

  • @yercules
    @yercules Рік тому

    Like always great video, love to see them suffer.. until it's my turn 😂 Two points of criticism though: The pull-up bar should be stabilized so there's only movement of the climber. And it's hard to see if the push-ups were all the way down, or place an object beneath so the elbows are always at 90 degrees maximum as the end point (for high ape-indexers or those with poor shoulder mobility this is a bit nicer).

    • @zacharylaschober
      @zacharylaschober Рік тому

      obviously not certain of their setup, but in testing athletes with dynamometers, these tend to begin reading when a minimum force is applied, a few kg, and until a designated time is reached, usually 250ms.
      I imagine Josh has done enough of this to assure accuracy and the scale shown on screen compared to climbers makes this seem like he has no RFD versus simply poor compared to other climbers.

You can have, for the sake of the argument, any mix of that (so, lets say high contraction, high lock off power, poor contact strength) and perform. Would be interesting to then isolate Lock off/explosiveness. The reason why i'm thinking about that is that i'm interested in finding a pretty easy way to measure contact strength, without using specific tools.

    • @zacharylaschober
      @zacharylaschober Рік тому +1

      @@Ptitviaud1337 following that, I think the problem with the 1-5-9 metric is we are adding several skill elements into this. 1-4-7 reduces much of the lockoff and skill, as will 1-3-5, but ultimately if we are measuring contact strength without an rfd device then I think snatches to edges are better. especially if we have an open and full rung akin to campus rungs, what you would do is find a rung which can be held isometrically at a weight and see what percentage of that weight a climber could do by snatching the hold, basically a small hop without time to recruit for the hang.
      what would we do to train contact strength? have an athlete attempt to grab holds with greater force, either by increasing the speed they hit the holds or the weight.

    @ianshobbies7184 Рік тому

    I would be very curious what Emil's strength metrics are without relating everything to bodyweight. I would guess he might even be significantly stronger than the average V16 climber. Obviously bodyweight is a major factor in climbing, but a taller climber with the same power to weight ratio as a smaller climber would theoretically be able to make bigger moves and hold static positions more easily. For that reason I find this data interesting, but potentially misleading and very skewed towards smaller climbers.

    • @LatticeTraining
      @LatticeTraining  Рік тому +2

      You are correct that data will skew towards shorter climbers. Shorter, lighter people, can achieve a greater S:W ratio than their taller peers. A good place to observe this is the weighted pull-up world records, ordered by weight category. Knowing this we compare relative (to bodyweight) results to other climbers of similar height. So the results you see are from a data model of similar height climbers, not all climbers we've tested. We do this because we can see a clear trend that shorter climbers tend to have (need?) more strength for a given grade.

    Real question: how strict are you testing on form for the push-ups? Because arguably, the push-ups performed were not "clean". Cleaner push-ups would be more difficult and result in less reps, and in the end what you're testing would be different.
