How would you recommend I split my week between weight lifting, kickboxing and rock climbing? Or is that possibly too much on the plate?
Heh, I actually do all three (well, I cardio-kickbox, if that counts).

I climb Tuesdays & Thursdays. If not going away to outdoor climb on the weekend, then I may do an indoor climb on a Saturday or Sunday. When I'm indoors, I'm there for about 4 hours. The last half hour there, I do alittle HIT system training (http://www.nicros.com/New%20Training...0workout.shtml) and then finish off with some pull-ups or campusing.

On my climbing off-days (Mondays, Wednesdays, sometimes Fridays), I go to a regular gym and do weightlifting on my opposite muscles groups (the ones I typically don't use when climbing, like my chest, shoulders, triceps). After weights, I do some type of cardio activity, like kick-boxing, spinning, or running on treadmill. If I don't climb on the weekend, I may go to the gym and do weightlifting for my back, biceps, hamstrings (to help with heel hooks).
