You have a great blog. I have followed it for a while, but you need to post more! : )
Simmons peak is on my to do list thank to your blog FYI-"elegance of a Halston dress and the aggressiveness of a metal-studded dog collar." Gotta do it. Read that book too.

This stuff is completely brilliant!
Any climber can connect with the insight that Haston has to share. He is very good at getting inside your head and planting that seed for the next step. Haston helps you help yourself to stay psyched.
If you are not reading this stuff you are genuinely missing out...which leaves the rest of us stronger...
Cheers!

Nice link on elbow pain: neutral grip and rowing exercises with dumbbells as a way to get out of irritation.
I'm thinking the Bachar Ladder cooked a lot of us BITD.
Sometimes the body would rotate and I think this was helping to get to neutral. But perhaps altogether too much single arm work with that apparatus?

PS: Laurence,
Lisa still trains like a fiend. She just got back from running long repeats at 14,000 feet on Mount Evans.
I.e. 3.5 miles from below summit to top, then: 2.5 miles, 1.5 miles, 1 mile, .5 mile
(sorry I can't express that in kilometers, still a Yankee, you know)

Hi Roy,
It's the reverse movement on the Bachar ladder and the campus board and even pull ups that does the most damage to the tendon insertion. The negative phase of all exercise should be undertaken with the most care. Lisa is a total animal isn't she!

Yes, the deadly eccentric contractions (reverse movement) single arm full body weight. If done cautiously, with dumbbells (and in limited number and under the right conditions, as in physio-therapy) ... also pretty good for strength training as well?
As to the Alisha Weber egg-on-spoon-in-mouth while doing pull-ups and single arm push-ups. Wow! Maybe start with a hard-boiled egg ... And that incline/decline (hands 18 inches below feet) single arm push-up looks hard on the low back.
Per the Bill Ramsey (52 yrs old) 5.14b birthday video. If it's the same Bill Ramsey, I remember him coming down from Smith Rocks, BEFORE the sport climbing started happening up there. So the commonality between Bill and Stevie is that they both have most of the original hair on their heads? Hmmm. Training secrets of the fit and famous. Got it. Ha ha.
(Yes, thanks, Lisa is still setting PR's during uphill running races, but now that she's 47, the young things are starting to take the wins from her on stuff like Pikes Peak Ascent (13+ miles, 7000+ vertical feet, 14,000 foot something summit)

Some nice detail in the last shoulder link.
What is the name of Haston's furry sparring partner?
