Check out SendIt.tv

I've created a new blog called Send It . The new blog takes full advantage of some new features from Kyte, including a fully integrated Facebook application. I'm trying to get people to post their climbing videos and photos there. Check it out, and add the Facebook application if you're on Facebook.

I'll keep using kylmbing as my personal (mostly boring) blog of day-to-day climbing stuff, and put the interesting stuff on Send It.

Complex Training: second session

2nd workout w/complex protocol last night. Felt better & was able to
complete 4 reps cleanly. Forearms felt _worked_ afterward. Curious to
see if i can notice a gain after the next 2 week stint.

Trying out complex training

I've campused a lot BITD and done plenty of strength training on finger boards, but I've never combined the two in a single workout. After reading about complex training on Eric Horst's site I thought I'd try it out.

Tonight's session was more about sussing out the proper resistance and number of movements which took some trial and error (you can see the video on JW channel. Eventually found a good starting point for the next workout consisting of 8 moves on the systems open hand edge w/30 pounds followed by up every single, down every double on the campus board. BTW, if you need a weight vest for climbing the V-max "basketball" model from weightvest.com is great. It's only 30 lb max capacity but the narrow straps and profile make it excellent for climbing. Expensive, but worth the money compared to a vest that hinders climbing movement.

Well, I'll give this a try on a 2 week-on, 2-off, 2-on schedule and see how it goes.

Let's try a little revamp here...i'll put the players on the right side and add text updates here.
