Wondering what supplemental exercises folks are doing for this phase of the traditional training plan.
In the strength phase I focused on weighted pullups, bicep curls, leg lifts, one arm inverted rows, one arm negatives, and weighted dips with occasional ring flys, pushups, supermans, and metronomes.
In the power phase I'm lowering my focus to 4 exercises, I'm thinking weighted leg lifts, one arm pull ups, fingertip pullups, and metronomes.
Any thoughts? I'm trying to figure out what is going to have the best specificity for my goals of long vertical to just overhanging pumpy cracks.
Thanks!

Long trad routes can be hard on the calves - maybe some work for them?

The 4th and 5th paragraphs of this post do a good job of describing what I do in the Power Phase.
That said, if I were to pare down my list of exercises and emphasize certain things, I would probably favor core training since I think it's fairly important to powerful climbing. I feel like all the pull-strength stuff gest trained quite well during campusing and Limit Bouldering. For trad climbing specifically, I would include some type of lock-off training.
