Thats actually surprisingly bad for somebody of Pete's level imo. Perhaps thats because i assume better climbers should be better in pull ups than me (or much better), but my limiting factors are actually weak af fingers and lack of technique. P.S. i climb v7s in different gyms as comfortable one session projects (climbed V8, but doubt it was real V8), flash v6s in different gyms, so i guess should be around v6 outdoors at least and do 26 pull ups in somewhat consistent temp and form even on a bad day, so i assume i could score close to Pete at them even after other tests, but im not even remotely close to him at my climbing level nor fingerstrength nor technique for that matter

@@user-sc9ud8wh3t As you can see Pete scored well on pull ups for 8b+ climbers and he wasn't fresh. Pull up strength and endurance simply doesn't relate to climbing well. You have gym bros who can do 20 pulls up come into climbing and not able to do a properly graded V4 (not the soft modern popular gyms). Then you have some casual long term climbers who have perfected their techniques and have good fingers, but never bothered training strength seriously (mostly females) that can cruise through many V4s without being able to do a SINGLE body weight pull up - I personally know 3 of them. But they are limited in style of climbing as well as pushing higher grades. Even at V8 level which is the upper tiers of my climbing group, we have people that can do anywhere between sub 10 to 25 pull ups. If you want to climb harder, def don't spend too much time doing pull ups.

Awesome; super impressive 💪
I'm super happy you said that the low row is more applicable for some climbing than pull-ups. I've been saying that about the Pendlay row (basically the barbell version of the same thing) for a while now.
@charliexoxox
Жыл бұрын
i love the pendlay too, but i think the low row is great because of the asymmetrical nature of it; the full scapular extension and retraction, driving through that other hand. it feels closer to climbing i think
@LoveAndClimbing
Жыл бұрын
@@charliexoxox Agreed, but I think there's enough transfer between the exercises that if you just train either consistently, you'll be able to do the other pretty well, which shows similar adaptation. For context, I never train low row, and can pretty easily low row the heaviest dumbbell in my gym (50lbs) which comes from Pendlay row training. Maybe I'd get something out of maxing out low rows but I don't have heavy enough dumbbells to do it. :) Doing symmetrical training is also less time consuming because you can do both sides at once.

I feel like the answer to how to climb harder is ALWAYS finger strength 😂. I can be absolutely jacked and flexible like crazy but if my fingers (or toes really) can’t grip the rock, then i can’t put any power down. Its definitely my limiting factor right now and its very apparent 😢

They are what attached you to the rock, so it makes sense. Apart from in crack climbing, that uses different muscles in the hand

We saw this endurance strength during the hanging comp with Storror! Still insane to think about
Petes a beast
For the Imperial unit people… 157 lbs body weight and did 2 pull-ups with 99.2lbs. 😅 impressive!
The 1 thing Pete needs to get to 9a is a car
A follow up video would be awesome that shows exercises to improve at each performance metric. Specifically I am thinking about the ankle mobility test, its something I have tried before and would love to get better at but not sure what exercises best target it.

Super interesting look into the strengths of climbing and the lattice testing and very informative! I’m intrigued given that Pete has done crack for so long, how does it correlate with finger strength and crack routes in this? Can you do the same kind of hanging fongner strength things with crack holds?
@LatticeTraining
Жыл бұрын
We've done quite a lot of testing with crack climbers and big wall climbers over the years and unfortunately due to the specificity nature of grip types there's a pretty poor correlation between crack and face. The best match up is between finger crack climbing and face climbing... Basically you can be very elite in face and weak in cracks and vice versa!
