Haha, 29. I started eating a few before each sport route and they give a burst of energy. What is a Cliffbar Shot Bloc if not an overpriced, and less fun gummy bear?

I’ve definitely also eaten gummy bears during a workout. As a grown man.

How many HB sets do you do (Erick)? Lately I've been only doing 9 sets, or three grips of advanced repeaters. Thin Crimp, open hand on the SVDR and the MR. The warm up I described may seem a bit long and probably is but most of the climbing ends up being pretty easy and then the finger load rises sharply at the end. I have found it works really well for allowing me to see how my body is feeling before a HB session. When I am following a protocol of 6 grips of advanced repeaters I may warm up a bit differently and in a way that has lower intensity. I am sure there is some way that what im doing is keeping me from gripping at my best though.

I do 20 sets, so I need to keep my warmup in check if I want to have energy at the end. Warming up is pretty personal though. Famously, JB Tribout climbed 10 pitches up to 5.13 before getting on his RP projects. That would literally Jill me

Above I mistakenly wrote 6 instead of 9 sets. Still pretty low HB volume but this allows me to really crank the intensity up high and the warm up allows me time to check in with how my whole body is feeling before I start strength training. I do this during the summer when my training goals are more maximum power focused boulders. For that warm up I start the HB right as I really begin to feel snappy and want to start pushing into harder cooler problems which is why I only do two or three problems in the V4/5 range
When I have route climbing goals then I do a 18-20 set group of repeaters with a shorter warm up since the HB workout is twice as long. Like you and probably all of us on here there is no way I could hit the JB volume before I get into project mode.
