After having just recovered from an A2 pulley strain. I would definitely stick to lighter climbing, and incorporate some blocks pulls with a tension block and blockbuster (hold the lockout for 5 seconds). I know it’s tough holding back but it’s worth not injuring the finger further.
This is great advice. Before filming this video I made sure my finger felt like it was in a state where it could take some hard projecting and I had been doing tons of recovery work up to this point. Hopefully my finger stays strong thanks for the comment 🙏
trying to follow my own advice here after taking a couple weeks to recover, take it slow or do longer warm up sessions so you don't end up with another quick re-injury

This. The V10 at the end was a nice bonus but in weird contrast to the title of the vid 😂

Haha the v10 was sick I was so close to sending 😎
Be careful bro I haven’t had a pulley injury myself but have tweaked my fingers before. Happens when you least expect it.
Very true it's not worth pushing too hard and reinjuring. Luckily I have felt great since this session and the finger is doing well
@ nice
I had a mild A2 pulley strain recently and it lowkey went away after I started doing finger intensive boulders somehow.
So interesting that's similar to what I felt. I still had to be careful but starting to project hard stuff again felt like it helped a ton

I appreciate this, the longer warmups have definitely been essential
But should you? (Also first)
Haha I feel like looking back I may have pushed a little harder than I should've but the finger has stayed strong since then
