Pyramid Workout

I'm sure you have all seen or heard about this but I think it deserves to be posted... first you need a hang board

So first you will really need to warm up... just do whatever you do in the gym before a hard climb

The sequence
Pick a hold... hang for 4 seconds, rest for 4 seconds
hang for 6 seconds, rest for 6 seconds
hang for 8 seconds, rest for 8 seconds
hang for 10 seconds, rest for 10 seconds
hang for 8 seconds, rest for 8 seconds
hang for 6 seconds, rest for 6 seconds
hang for 4 seconds, rest for 4 seconds

Rest for 1 to 2 minutes

then move to the next set of holds... my hangboard has over 15 different hangs I can do

Do all the sets of holds as best to your ability
Do not count in your head... you will, no matter what you say, be counting to fast. Mount a watch with a seconds hand in front of you
Do not keep going if you feel any sort of pain... this WILL hurt. Especially once you get to the half pad crimps/rail (oh yeah do not use your thumbs and close up on the crimps). Beginners should probably not do this with any killer crimps... just stick to slopers and jugs

And later on when you get accustomed to doin this do uneven hangs (for example. one hand on a crimp/rail and the other on a jug but one has to be lower than the other)

Just be careful and adjust this to your liking... (my elbows are throbbing just thinking about doing this)... oh yeah this will be good for any climber... it will help finger strength, which we all need and it will help your endurance if you do the timing strictly... GOOD LUCK!

OOOHHHH and Alex Johnson is required to do this with at least a small child on his back... REQUIRED

I'll have to Second Bill's Requirement.

i will do it with an ox on my back

i dont think jarrod would agree to be on your back while doing this
