For years I have been using an alternating cold/hot water treatment to try to stimulate blood flow but this is much easier. As for future videocasts, I can't think of any off the top of my head but I would like to hear more about your training practices. Do you train specifically for certain projects that you're working on, or do you use more general types of training? I see you running in the E11 video...do you run regularly? Also, you say you recently lost 7 pounds...was this dieting, extra cardio exercise, both, etc? Also, I've always wondered if elite athletes used caffeine in their training? Do you have a cup of joe before a hard training or redpoint attempt? I have always used a little caffeine for hard training days but found that too much makes me jittery and unable to focus, and also adds a little anxiety on a difficult lead. Sorry for all the questions, just some stuff that was running through my mind. If you'd rather respond in e-mail so as not to clog up the blog let me know in a response and I'll send you my e-mail address. Thanks in advance for all the hard work you put into getting this info out to the masses, I think the web page is awesome and I forward the address to everyone I climb with here in the states. <BR/><BR/><BR/>Nathan in Salt Lake CityAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
