Training after mild finger injury/prolonged rest period
|
Fate conspired to bring together an international move and a finger injury at the same time. I haven't been able to train/climb for a month. |

I don't think you'll be able to salvage your training cycle. If you feel healed, start over with a new cycle. If not, I would start with a few weeks of rehab hangboarding (as described extensively on the RCTM website/forum) and then, depending on how that goes, decide where to go from there. |

Much appreciated. |

I had the same thing happen last year. No traumatic incident, just a gradual onset of pain over two days at which point I noticed a pebble like lump in my A2 pulley. I've actually partially torn one on my other hand which definitely popped and this was not at all the same injury. |

I found some information on the forum ( rockprodigytraining.proboar…) but can't find anything on the RCTM website. Do you mind providing some links on the RCTM website? I have a similar injury as the OP and have gone through some PT/rest and am trying to get some strength back in the finger. The hangboard has pissed off my finger in the past, so I'm looking for a better way to ease into it. Thanks |

Just thought I'd give a brief update to my personal experience with getting back into shape after a finger injury. |
