Final Preparation for Chulilla – DIY Treadwall Training in Full Swing

With just a short time left before we head to Chulilla, I’m fully focused on dialing in my endurance and power.

My DIY Treadwall has been the perfect training tool, allowing me to replicate the demands of long limestone routes while also keeping my forearms prepared for more intense climbing.

Endurance Training – Long Sessions, No Pump

On some days, I focus on pure endurance, aiming for 20 to 35 minutes of continuous climbing. I break these sessions into multiple sets, keeping the intensity low enough to avoid pumping out, but high enough to stay within the aerobic zone.

This is crucial for Chulilla, where most routes are long and sustained, and efficient climbing is key.

Power-Endurance – Overhang Mode & Forearm Burn

On other days, I shift the focus to shorter, more intense sessions. This means:

🔥 3 to 4 minutes per set in steep overhang mode

🔥 Multiple sets to push my forearms into deep fatigue

🔥 Training my body to recover while still climbing

This type of training is all about getting used to the pump and teaching my forearms to keep going even when they’re burning.

Almost Time to Fly!

The training is going well, and I can feel my endurance improving. The combination of long, low-intensity sessions and shorter, high-intensity sets is making a difference. Now, it’s just a matter of staying consistent until we finally leave for Spain.

Dreaming of being Chulilla coon!
