Limit Boulder #1

Limit bouldering is about putting together a two or three move problem with a dynamic finish that is actually harder than you can do. Ideally, it'd take a few working sessions to do.

Ya do a 20 min ARCing for a warmup; then a warmup boulder ladder: 3-4 problems each level from v0 up until you get to your flash level. Then "hard bouldering" for a few burns on problems above yer flash level. Then you do the limit stuff.

Interestingly, the "beginner" limit bouldering program calls for no limit bouldering.

i came up with a few anyhow, and it went ok i s'pose. Funny thing is there's really not much difference between trying to send a way hard problem and "limit bouldering". In other words, the first 3-4 moves on a v7ish problem might work out to be a limit problem to me. So the "hard bouldering" and "limit bouldering" work out to be about the same deal at my infantile level of climbing.

Ah well: i 'spect the several campusing sessions are gunna be the money this go round. Next sesh of those comes two days hence.
