When it come to training for bouldering, it can seem like the best and most enjoyable method is simply to session problems with friends in the gym.  While this approach may work for awhile, it is certainly not the most efficient way to improve your bouldering.  Systematic training will always be more effective and, if done properly, can often be just as fun.

This, however, doesn’t mean you need to abandon your indoor bouldering session all together and spend all your time on the hangboard and campus board.  Instead, it simply means that heading into the gym with a plan will help you get more out of your training sessions.

To help you add some structure to your bouldering training, here’s a sample workout taken from the TrainingBeta Bouldering Strength and Power Program.  The workout consists mostly of bouldering with some core work afterwards.  However, instead of just unleashing you on random problems, the workout is more planned out to help you stay focused and not get distracted by whatever new problem looks the most fun.

Give the workout a shot and if you like it be sure to check out the full Bouldering Strength and Power Program for yourself.
