Training requires overload within the framework of both the session and the training cycle. If you don’t carefully plan overload session to session, you probably won’t see the progress you could.
Just getting tired in the gym isn’t the answer. Pushing the loads the right amount higher and recovering correctly is how you really get better.
The only way you can effectively do this is to remember what happened last time, and the time before, and the time before. Most of us just can’t remember that much.
This is why a training log or journal is probably the most useful tool a climber can use in their training. By keeping a good log, you can precisely identify training patterns that worked and those that didn’t.
In this video Steve breaks down how to keep better records and how to use that data effectively. Find this information useful? Subscribe to the channel!
