For someone like myself who wants to climb hard routes, but doesn't want to lose that hard bouldering strength I would prefer to train in a manner I am able to keep my power and still have the endurance to climb long routes. We have witnessed this "strength" many time before with climbers like Adam Ondra, Tommy Caldwell and others sending super hard problems and also super long (and hard) routes. It seems to me rather than climbing with a pump of easy-moderate climbs for say 20-30 minutes you might instead use 4 by 4's and other progressive bouldering circuit and other workouts to build endurance while maintaining power.BrianBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01043675109169289318noreply@blogger.com
