Straight-arm (SA) 'cat' wall-traverse (ipsilateral)
Under-wall work
•
58s
THE WHAT:
Fundamental patterning and conditioning-development in the context of traversing across the wall in a 'cat-hang' position. As with all locomotion contexts, whether in communication with the floor or a wall, the objective is ultimately developing optimal EFFICIENCY to make the pattern easier, rather than harder.
The irony, of course, is that until patterning does develop, its execution will be less efficient and therefore more difficult. In the process, however, this is precisely what helps to build fundamental capacities, ultimately to the effect that they need not be used, but simply afford a sustainable "reserve" from which to draw from, should the practitioner wish/need to.

SA 'cat' wall traverse (contralateral)
THE WHAT:
A fundamental straight-arm (SA) wall-traverse from the 'cat-hang' executed with a contralateral step, the hands & feet alternating between a wide/together position to locomote across the wall. The notable similarity n pattern is to the quadrupedal 'Bear-crawl' expressed laterally left &... -

THE WHAT:
An introduction to two foundational concepts for using the legs whilst climbing: the 'Heel-hook' and 'Toe-hook'. Far from being specifical to wall-work, these are most general principles which lead toward an understanding of how to climb with the WHOLE body, not just the upper-body/arms... -

THE WHAT:
Creating two and three-point supported 'bridge' forms in a wall-hanging position, working with both toe & heel-hooks. Whilst the initial wall-facing bridge variations are distinctly ipsilateral in structure, the '3-point' variations have the potential to shift between ipsi & contralater...
