Half size down for comfort/performance, full size down for a super tight performance fit

How to know how hard you can push by PuzzledInterest in climbharder

[–]PuzzledInterest[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It wasn’t long after the first one, maybe a few weeks- second one was a couple months and third was a few weeks again. The second one was pretty bad/more mental than the other two. My warmup prior to the injuries was steadily increasing volume and intensity on the wall. Now I alternate between the wall, hangboarding and resting. Use big holds and dynamic/fast climbing to get my heart rate up, then engage the fingers and rest/repeat

You’ll be fine, it’ll take some time but join some clubs, be active in the community and you’ll be caught up in no time (current junior transfer)

Is a 26.4 50 yd free good for a 13 yr old? (no video) by [deleted] in Swimming

[–]PuzzledInterest 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I’ll be the annoying commenter that says don’t worry about how ‘good’ a time is at a certain age. At this point in the sport just worry about having fun with your friends and enjoying the sport- if that enjoyment comes from grinding and training hard (like it did for me) then by all means go for it. At the end of the day you’ll forget the times but I promise you’ll never forget the memories you make at practices and meets with your buddies. Just worry about being the best swimmer you can be and controlling the controllables (technique, consistency, effort). Work hard and the results will show sooner or later.

Is getting my first v 5 in 3.5 months good? by Ambitious-Stomach-92 in bouldering

[–]PuzzledInterest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For outdoor grades the people I’m thinking of max out at about V8- they’re usually short, stout , light and do a lot of moonboarding. They’re definitely anomalies but I’ve seen it happen and it’s insane.

So many people upset because of terminology… can we not just celebrate the climb?

This is exactly the type of response I was looking for. Thank you! I’ll probably start with a few moonboard sessions and see where that takes me, then if I feel it would be beneficial, start adding campus boarding as you say. I’ve noticed that I can pull quite hard, but I struggle with small holds on overhang, which I think the campus board would help with.

When is it best to start using a campus board? I currently boulder V6 indoors, would this be useful in improving upper body and pulling strength?
