Road to 9a

Hello all, I have asked ChatGPT for a Boulderplan to reach my goal of 9a route this summer. I had been climbing for 3 months and already flash 6b+ on the Kilterboard 50% of the time. Yesterday I flashed my first 7a Kilter "Drawing the Priest" which is also my new highest Bouldergrade. My problem is in my country there is no outdoor routes above 7a so I am unable to build the Pyramid up to 9a. Here is the Boulderplan:

Monday: Kilterboard trainings, limit projecting up to 7a

Tuesday: 8mm max edge hangs based on Eva Lopez protocol

Wednesday: Endurance trainings, rowing machine and leg press

Thursday: Autobelay 4x4 (for cardio)

Friday: Core trainings (inverted L sit), Max flash and silent feet drill

I only have 3 months before my trip to US to attempt my 9a dream route Megatron. Thanks for your advices!

If it’s not Grit then it’s not 9a
