Weekly Challenge Question

Folks, one part of being on the team is gaining knowledge outside of the gym. To that end we are reintroducing the weekly challenge. Think of it as homework, or not...  Post your replies to the challenge or bring a list to practice and tell a coach what you've learned.



Name 5 rope areas and 5 bouldering areas in Utah that have different rock types. (you can reuse areas that are both bouldering and ropes)

Examples for California
Ropes:
Yosemite - granite
Owens River Gorge - volcanic tuff
The Shredding - limestone

Bouldering:
Happies - volcanic tuff
Buttermilks - granite 
Columbia State Park - limestone

Volume Phase is underway

We are in the midst of our volume training and that means lots of climbing on easy terrain. Remember this is a perfect time to focus on footwork and technique. Relax, flow through your moves, and enjoy getting a lot of mileage in on relatively easy terrain. This is where you get your body ready for the hard training to come in power and power endurance phases. Work hard to be tired by the end of practice and get lots of climbing in.
