Hi guys I got the book yesterday it is awesome and beatiful with images and everything! Was reading it till midnight Reagarding base fitness... What is your opinion on Feet on the ground "French traversing". It was presented by Lattice training in this video. It is suppose to be good for endurance if you have a steep home wall. 1. Exercise
Feet on the ground "French traversing" is our favourite, simple way of reducing the intensity. Yes, it may look a bit silly, but it's REALLY effective! It works well on anything from 20-60 degrees overhanging. www.youtube.com/watch?v=dGMP5vbM3Os

Seems like a great way to ARC if all you have is a board that's too hard to stay on for long periods of time. It could also work for PE too... just make sure you keep your feet in the right spot to moderate intensity.

Thanks for the answer sbleazard. For the time being, I don't have a wall appropriate for ARCing, it's too steep-27 degrees. Right now I'm implementing a 90 degree wall, but until than, I will test this training

Great! I have a similar setup. 20+ degrees overhanging and a 90. The 20 gets pretty pumpy for ARCing.

Yeah, I have been doing their 1 min on, 1 min off on the Moonboard for ARC for the past 6 months or so - just feet on the board, not on ground. Seems to translate fairly well to maintaining my endurance. When I first started it would be pushing into PE by the last reps, but now that I have the rest spots pretty well worked out I can keep it pretty calm.
I think you can also look at 1 min 2 min rest etc. to try and stay mostly in that ARC zone.

I have a home wall with lots of room to traverse. I did not have a name for feet on the floor traversing but I use it to warm up with low intensity. I also use it as a time to vary the way that I grip the holds, switching between drag, semi crimp and crimp.
