Book excerpt: In Training for the New Alpinism, Steve House, world-class climber and Patagonia ambassador, and Scott Johnston, coach of U.S. National Champions and World Cup Nordic Skiers, translate training theory into practice to allow you to coach yourself to any mountaineering goal.

Chapters cover endurance and strength training theory and methodology, application and planning, nutrition, altitude, mental fitness, and assessing your goals and your strengths. Chapters are augmented with inspiring essays by world-renowned climbers, including Ueli Steck, Mark Twight, Peter Habeler, Voytek Kurtyka, and Will Gadd. Filled with photos, graphs, and illustrations.

Download or read book Beyond the Mountain written by Steve House and published by Patagonia. This book was released on 2013-10-06 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What does it take to be one of the world's best high-altitude mountain climbers? A lot of fundraising; traveling in some of the world's most dangerous countries; enduring cold bivouacs, searing lungs, and a cloudy mind when you can least afford one. It means learning the hard lessons the mountains teach. Steve House built his reputation on ascents throughout the Alps, Canada, Alaska, the Karakoram and the Himalaya that have expanded possibilities of style, speed, and difficulty. In 2005 Steve and alpinist Vince Anderson pioneered a direct new route on the Rupal Face of 26,600-foot Nanga Parbat, which had never before been climbed in alpine style. It was the third ascent of the face and the achievement earned Steveand Vince the first Piolet d"or (Golden Ice Axe) awarded to North Americans. Steve is an accomplished and spellbinding storyteller in the tradition of Maurice Herzog and Lionel Terray. Beyond the Mountain is a gripping read destined to be a mountain classic. And it

Download or read book Lift Lab written by Zane Kono and published by . This book was released on 2020-06-19 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This logbook is designed specifically for high level bodybuilding workout tracking. In this book the 'RIR' or 'Reps in Reserve' system is utilized. For more information on how to use the RIR system, see below. Each book contains 90 workouts logs. The book is 6 by 9 inches to make it more portable and convenient.In the introduction of the book you will find an example template already filled in to further demonstrate how to properly utilize this logbook.RIR System:Generally, with any program I write, I will have a set amount of reps to execute. I will stop at that rep number, even if I have more reps I could have completed. From there, I estimate how many more reps I could have done; Was that failure, so 0 more reps? Or did I have 1 or 2 reps left? Or was it too light and I could have done 5 more? Do your best to estimate how many you could have done had you kept going to failure. This is your Reps in Reverse, or RIR. I have created a way to use RIR in order to keep progressing, but not always pushing every set to failure. Always pushing to failure is not necessarily conducive to more results, and often leads to more nervous system fatigue than desired. You do want to go to failure sometimes, but you also want to keep that in moderation.What I have done is create the '20% Reps In Reserve Rule'. The 20% Reps In Reserve rule states that you should only go up in weight when you are able to do 20% more than your goal reps with a given weight. An example of this would be if I was doing a set of 10 reps, I would execute that set, then estimate my RIR. If I stopped at 10 and that was my failure, meaning 0 RIR, then I will come back to that same weight next time. If I had one more rep I could have completed, meaning, 1 RIR, that is only 10% more. Therefore I still come back to the same weight next time. However, if I feel I could have done two more, or 2 RIR, that is 20% over my desired reps, meaning, next time I come back to that exercise I will increase the weight. Then repeat that same process for the new weight, once at 20% or more RIR, go up in weight again. Easy math says, if the goal reps was 5, 20% RIR is 1. 10 Reps is 2, 15 Reps is 3, and 20 is 4. If you rep range is somewhere in the middle, like 8, then round to the nearest multiple of 5 (10, in this case) and use that as your number to find your RIR percentage. The final thing to note is that if you didn't hit your desired reps with a weight, but got close, you can write it as a negative RIR. For example, if I was aiming for 10 reps, but only got 8, that's -2 RIR. This simply tells you next week you'll need to back down in weight. A negative RIR should only occur at the beginning of your program, where you're trying to find your starting weights. If you're seeing negative RIRs later into the program, as in you're not even able to hit weights you've logged in previous weeks, this is usually an indication of needing a deload. The only real exception to that is if you're on a hard diet, then you may see strength loss simply due to that.

Download or read book Climb Strong 100 Training Tips written by Steve Bechtel and published by . This book was released on 2017-07-31 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book was originally published in 2013 as an ebook on the Climb Strong site. I added it to the book Strength as an appendix, under the name of "Successful Sessions: 34 Training Tips for Successful Rock Climbing." I had originally written it as ten tips, then fixed on twenty five. By the time I'd finished, I stopped at the nice, round number of 34.Since that time, my learning and communicating with more accomplished coaches and climbers has increased substantially. In fact, there are many days that I do little at my normal job (running the gym), and instead spend hours communicating with climbers. This has been a hard transition, made easier by the efforts of my wife, Ellen, as well as Charlie Manganiello, Shelby Duncan, Kevin Wallingford, and Emily Tilden, who keep Elemental running and improving. I am pleased to admit that I am now the worst coach at the gym.When I looked at the updated list in the fall of 2015, I saw that we had collected well over a hundred tips, from one-line reminders to full-life plans. Over the winter of 2016/17, we whittled the tips down to exactly 100, and tried to keep them short and to the point. This is not so much a book to read in one sitting, but rather one to take in one or two tips at a time.This book is free to download with a paid membership to our site.

Download or read book Zen Jiu Jitsu Training Log written by Oliver Staark and published by . This book was released on 2013-03-16 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Keeping track of your progress is paramount if you plan to improve in your jiu jitsu game. Most high level Black Belts and World Champions know that if you improve your technique by only 1% each day then the compounding effect will make you proficient in the gentle art at a very high level. Keeping a series of techniques in your head is a complex matter. This is human chess after all, for every attack there is a defense for every sweep, takedown, pass, submission there is a counter...and counter to that counter. It makes much more sense to keep taking notes than trying to remember what you did, even if you just did it. How many times do you get to the next class after practicing a sweep and you can't remember the vaguest detail! Also, when you review, as you should periodically, some techniques you will identify as being easy to perform and fit your body-type better. These techniques I put a checkmark in the corner of my journal and come back to drill some more. The techniques that present a challenge should have an X in the corner of the page, meaning you need to revisit this in more detail maybe with your professor or coach. This art form is a process yet it is system driven. One thing leads logically to another. It's position-transition-submission. The logic, though, is lightning in a bottle. It needs to be grasped and placed into the correct place in the puzzle or the puzzle will not unlock. Remember how a technique was working really well and you were catching everyone or passing guards, then a couple of weeks later it stopped working?? What happened? Probably, a detail you were applying has now been forgotten. Wouldn't it be great if you could go back and retrieve that detail, well, now you can with the Zen Jiu Jitsu Training Log.
