Hey folks, 

I do indoor climbing training at ClimbBase5 North Van and am inviting anyone who's also interested in climbing specifically to train. The main idea is that it's a session specifically for hard training (or however hard you'd like to go), rather than just fun climbing. It would involve, for example, doing drills, max effort climbs, specific climbing exercises, fall therapy, hang-boarding, etc. 

I have my own training program that I follow (à la Eric Horst, if anyone knows his book) and specific things I need to work on. If you have your own training routine and want company, that's great! We can figure out how to help each other train. If you have no routine of your own and just want to follow along, also great! 

It's simply a great motivator to climb with other people who are also there to train. It also helps me to have an accountabilibuddy :) . If this works, I'll create more regular BCMC training events. 

This is an example of what my training session would look like:

10-15 mins of warmup 
30-60 mins of climbing - e.g. max. strength climbing, mental practice, or technique drills
20-30 mins of climbing specific exercises - e.g. hang-boarding, laddering, weighted pullups etc.
20-30 mins of core and leg conditioning - e.g. planking, squats, pushups, TYWs etc. 
10 mins cool down if I've got the patience
