Boulder Ladder B

Problem selection:

4 problems Working -3 grades 1 try each
3 problems Working -2 grades 2 tries each
2 problems Working grade 10-20 minutes each
2 problems Working -1 grade 3 tries each

“Working grade” should be the hardest grade you can consistently climb in this gym in a few tries or a short session.

e.g. if your consistent working grade in this gym was V7, in order your session would be:

  1. Four V4s, one try each
  2. Three V5s, two tries each
  3. Two V7s, 10 minutes each
  4. Two V6s, three tries each

Climbing:

Rest 1-2 minutes between tries. Rest 3-5 minutes between ladder rungs.

Focus:

Try to use a mix of new problems, and familiar ones. Focus on the quality of your movement, and don’t stress sending. You can always come back to problems later. The way you move on the problem is what matters the most.

This is a high-intensity session. You are expected to fail some.

When your power drops significantly, end the session.

Combination:

This is a general session and can be combined with any session. Perform after warming up and before any conditioning.
