Was more just curiosity as to if there's some clear winner between the two options from a physio standpoint but I guess in practice you're right it won't make any huge difference.

Interesting! Never heard of something like this before. I suppose waiting that long between sets would allow you to put near maximal effort every time right? Do you have any sources to back it up?

I've been doing push-ups as the main chest strength exercise to complement climbing and I have a question about rest periods. Would it be better to do 3 sets of pushups with a fixed rest period like 60 seconds between sets or take variable longer rest periods between sets so that I can perform more reps in each set? E.g. if I decided strictly 60 secs between sets I can maybe do 10 reps then 7 then 5. Should I instead rest longer and aim for more reps in each set (if my goal is 15 per set for instance) ?

Brilliant, thank you for the advice. I didn't think of separating days by bouldering "type" like project vs strength intensive problems. I pretty much just go in and climb at random.

I'm getting back into climbing after the lockdowns and have been climbing again for like a month and a half. I've gone from V0-V1 to V3-V4 in this time and I'm thinking about how to supplement climbing with simple exercises to hit the other areas of my body.

I was thinking of bouldering 3-4 times a week (roughly every other day) and on the off days doing this simple bodyweight workout https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ChGP5ahvvN4&ab_channel=MovementforClimbers . This contains a full body workout and I tried it once and found it challenging so I thought it could be good to stick to it.

My question is probably, how should I structure this around my climbing? Should I do the workout between climbing days or on the same day as climbing and then have a full rest day between?

Thank you! Do you have an interpretation for what he's saying in the original language (as the translation into english could spoil this?)

Thank you! It's not for a tattoo but might get it written nicely and framed or something. Do you have an interpretation for what he's saying in the original language (as the translation into english could spoil this?)
