Tabata-based systems boarding
Post Body

I'm bored at work so I'd figure I'd start a discussion on a new (power?) endurance workout I was introduced to, which uses the tabata protocol on a systems board.

Ideally you find a systems board with 4-6 different hold types that allow for simple laddering, preferably feet are small or bad. Now lower that systems board down to the lowest wall angle that will be climable for you on the given hold type. Ideally have a partner and switch off for resting.

Workout: 20s on x 10s off x 8 reps x 3min rest x 4-6 sets

I choose one hold type per set and focus on making engaged, controlled movements. You don't want your feet coming off. If you fall more than 3 times in a set, raise the angle. I try to split my time on the wall like so: 10s climbing up, 10s climbing down

I'm headed to the Red soon and this workout is the closest replication of the pump I've found. It can be a little taxing on the skin, but I don't find that a problem. I think this will be a great replacement for repeaters for me. I find repeaters a bit injurious for my weird middle finger and I'd rather reserve my hangboarding sessions to different protocols.

Has anyone else tried something like this? It's pretty intense
