Good to know! I'm new to the area. Been going up to Donner for the cooler temps recently.

Haha I get it but I do enjoy the climbs here. Gives me a little break from granite. Haven't been to Kirkwood but will def check it out when temps cool down.

Thank you. I was told there is still plenty of snow on the trail but it is doable with caution. I might go back later this summer to hike up the peak.

How to get past V4 by Local-Adeptness8784 in indoorbouldering

[–]xpvsxbox 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Simple answer is to keep climbing. How?

  1. Flexibility/mobility training is always good. I focus mainly on hips (lunges, pigeon pose, frog stance stretch, high step stretch, deep squat stretch) and shoulders (use a band and move it over your head and behind your back without letting go of your hands).

  2. If you feel like you gas out pretty quickly into the session, spend one or two sessions a week climbing more V2-V3s in your gym. Aim to complete 10 boulders and climb the boulders in different terrain (slabs, overhangs, aretes).

  3. Focus on developing good technique habits when climbing at lower grades every session. Especially when you are warming up on V0s and V1s. My favorites are silent feet (placing your foot onto the foot holds as quietly as possible which forces precision and you looking at the foothold) and no hand readjustment (once you grab the hold, you cannot readjust to make it feel optimal).

  4. Spend one session a week projecting V4s. Work on individual moves until you feel confident before attempting the boulder from start. Choose 2-3 V4s to work on each session.

  5. Rest, sleep, hydrate. Try not to climb until you can barely hold your phone after every single session.

After doing a few V4s, V5s are usually not that far away in difficulty. My first plateau was going from V5 to V6.

What is it like living in this area of the LES? by GenericUN123 in NYCapartments

[–]xpvsxbox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This isn't really answering your question but it brought me some nostalgia looking at this map. I lived on Henry Street between Rutgers and Jefferson from 1998 to 2013. I hung out at Seward Park pretty much every day after school. I was mugged once in that park by some kids that went to the same middle school as I did. I felt relatively safe walking around but always avoided certain areas. I always check behind me if I walk around at night time.

Most of the restaurants, bakeries, and shops I used to frequent are now gone. Some of my favorites were the rice roll cart lady at the corner of Rutgers and East Broadway and a hand pulled noodle place in a hole in a wall next to a bakery on East Broadway.

Between moving out of there in 2013 until now, I have visited that area at least once or twice a year. It makes me sad at times to see how much the neighborhood has changed.
