What Are Good Techniques for Training Arm Tendons and Ligaments?
Posted by Rock Lover on October 29th, 2010
I started rock climbing about a year ago and progressed pretty quickly but the tendons and ligaments in my arms have become a serious problem for me lately. They’re constantly sore and seem to be very injury prone. Are there any good techniques for training them, specifically the ones in the hands, wrists, elbows and shoulders?
I’ve looked around some body building forums but most of that was very technical and over my head. Hope someone can give me some more straight forward information. Thank you!

Posted by Rock Lover on March 20th, 2010
Im 18 years old and currently climb at around a v5 level. Im usually in the local rock climbing gym at least four times a week. I also have recently started doing about 50 pullups (usually 5 sets of 10) and 100 sit ups(usually 4 sets of 25). I was wondering if doing this many push ups and pull ups everyday is overtraining? And if its not, would increasing the number be detrimental?
By the way I forgot to mention that I mainly boulder, so Im looking to increase my strength more than my endurance.
