bouldering gym update

so i've sorta gotten used to it, although i'd much rather be in a nice bouldering cave or on TR/lead, instead of the boxy woodie room i'm stuck with now.

but what i've been doing for the past week or so, to get back into climbing shape is this:

30 mins traversing (easy climbing - about 50 moves)

10 mins rest

30 mins traversing (harder - about 30 moves or so)

10 mins rest

non-climbing workout (abs/pullups/pushups/etc)

trying to emulate a 4-3-2-1 type thing, but not a full out commitment at this point, since i'm still fairly weak from the time i spent off the wall.

anyone can troubleshoot this plan? trying to build up basic endurance for a bit, before i start aiming for power.

If you have access to TR route, just do laps for about 30min straight. Usually 2 grade lower where you won't get pumped through out the process.

Other then that, just climbing for a long time without getting pump will get your endurance. It is pretty much the only way of doing it (but not the only way).
