I guess what I mean is, that when you're training hard, you will always be flirting with injury. I'd rather flirt with injury where it will get me the highest return - i.e. limit bouldering.

I'm hoping to do my first 13a and V8 this spring and cannot do either of the campus moves you mention (I'm 5'11 +3, so it's not a size issue). But power is a persistent factor, and I don't know that there's anything wrong with you outpacing your skill level for now - eventually you'll catch up. You have more to gain from limit bouldering and hard bouldering for now, but keeping campussing in as a secondary focus is probably still worthwhile.

Cool I finally figured out that I indeed needed to push down with the bottom hand and this enabled me to hit 1-4-7 on giant rungs > 2 inch ha. Now working on getting the 1-4-7 on the bigs next.

I've recently found a new trick to teach me to push with the low hand - muscle ups. When you hit the turnover point, you're 100% focused on switching from a pull to a push, so you can train the mechanics in isolation, rather than focusing half of your attention on it while doing a max 2 move. Obviously the hold is way too good to provide significant physical training carryover, but I think it's really helped me learn how to move properly on my max two move campussing.

I've recently found a new trick to teach me to push with the low hand - muscle ups. I agree, but only if you're doing strict muscle ups. I used to do kipping muscle ups on the bar, and I don't think that helps. Since I got some gymnastic rings for my garage, I've been working on the strict muscle up, especially the transition from pulling to pushing.
