    • @user-sc9ud8wh3t
      @user-sc9ud8wh3t Год назад +1

      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

    • @slbaaron
      @slbaaron Год назад +1

      @@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.

    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
      @charliexoxox Год назад

      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
      @LoveAndClimbing Год назад

      @@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.

      @LatticeTraining Год назад +1

      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!

    Now you need to get Honnold on and see how he gets on with the critical force test 🙂

    That was super interesting!
    Just a bit of constructive feedback in terms of the video, but in the results reveal portion a tripod would have been amazing. The slight camera shake coupled with whatever digital image stabilisation being used was causing a lot of screen wobble and ‘wave’. Still an amazing video though 😁

    Awesome! Surprised that Pete has "weak" fingers when doing crazy single finger jams

    This was awesome!
    I'd love to see Caldwell, Honnold, and Ondra, Garnbret
    It would also be really cool to see pros that either use their skills and strength to allow the to do their job like Jimmy or older climbers who have passed the torch on cutting edge climbing but are still beasts like Conrad. (Felt weird using just their last names for some reason).

      Oooooh, I feel like his would be crazy. He seems a monster on power endurance stuff. Never seems to run out of gas.
