Robot Climbing: March 2010
http://robotclimbing.blogspot.com/2010_03_01_archive.html
Training Charts and Log. Wednesday, March 24, 2010. That fall I spent my first weekends at Rumney. I did routes like Technosurfing and Whip Tide, and got incredibly shut down on Tsunami, Aquarius, and Suburban. All of this took place in the shadow of this:. Around this time I began seriously training for climbing. At first the training had a moderate effect on my climbing. Finally in the last 8 months or so I feel like I've found the training formula that allows me to climb at my best. Campus board power...

Robot Climbing: May 2010
http://robotclimbing.blogspot.com/2010_05_01_archive.html
Training Charts and Log. Friday, May 14, 2010. Summer 2010 Goals and Schedule. I'm on a rest day in the Red River Gorge right now, staying. I've decided to take it easy for our two week trip to give my body some down time and hopefully finish healing my finger. This is slightly frustrating but not too bad seeing as the conditions are not great. I'm working on a post on. But until it's ready I thought I'd share my training plans and goals for the summer. Rock Climbing and Cross Training. PM: 4x1/2 mile run.

Robot Climbing: Special Home Improvement Post
http://robotclimbing.blogspot.com/2010/08/special-home-improvement-post.html
Training Charts and Log. Tuesday, August 10, 2010. Special Home Improvement Post. There has not been much climbing this summer for the robot. This is mostly due to my fingjury(thanks for the term beastermaker.co.uk), which was the worst I've ever had. For the lower elevation areas of the northern hemisphere summer does not lend itself to difficult climbing. A climber has a few choices around this:. 1 Travel(hopefully we'll do that next summer). 2 Climb sub-maximally(I don't really enjoy this). Simple tem...

Robot Climbing: September 2010
http://robotclimbing.blogspot.com/2010_09_01_archive.html
Training Charts and Log. Friday, September 24, 2010. Three climbers and the story of climbing level. Lets start with a few definitions. We'll say a climber's base level. Is the level at which a person climbs quickly(in a day for routes, an hour or so for boulders) when they are fit but haven't performed any intense training. Is the level at which a person climbs quickly when a person is benefitting from a training regimen. Is the level at which a person climbs, after training, given a large amount of time.

I started out with the Revolution "Hovah", then moved to a Moon Board, then I used a combination of the two plus a single small campus rung.
