To those of you who train outdoors (for SASUKE or otherwise), what do you think about training when it's raining? Do you prefer to leave it when it's wet, so you don't get to wet yourself? Do you see it as a different and challenging environment in which to train where everything's more slippery and it's cold? Or do you not even take the weather into consideration, and train regardless of rain or shine?

When it rains I just train inside, the only things I can do outside are grip trainings and running. I already run a lot, so going outside only to run would be useless, and grip training is nearly impossible when it's raining. If I had something else to do, I guess I wouldn't care about the rain, even if I hate it;but raining=wet and cold=possible illness so I wouldn't do it a lot.

I hate all rain, I couldn't imagine training in it.
Besides, the risks of slipping or catching pnemonia far outweigh the benefits.

I try to train in the rain... ... but where I live, it never rains  It does make my hands scream for mercy. |

I personally love to go out and do grip training, or balance/jumping training in the rain. It makes it more challenging. Dodectuple step training is particularly interesting  Just so you know, I love the rain: I prefer it to when it's hot. |

I rarely train my grip outside these days. I'm too accustomed to climbing and hanging from things that I actually use weights in the gym to train.

Including rain doesn't make your grip training amazing. It needs to be worth a crap to begin with. |

Try it on something like polished metal in the rain. That does make it somewhat more complicated. And try it with clothes that'll soak up more water, just to make the whole of you annoyingly more heavy and more difficult to maneuver. The extra awkwardness, for me, adds extra fun and frustration simultaenously to the experience |

I don't really like training in the rain, I just train inside, which isn't much, just whatever I can do on that "Iron Gym" thing and using the track of the shower doors as a Cliffhanger
(Although I usually don't take the doors off the track but since I was making a video going back and forth isn't really interesting enough)
And I hate having to cliff there.. not much space, one level, doesn't feel stable at all, plus I can't do the real jump because of the wall is in the way on either side..

I'd need space for that... Not to mention I'd probably need some kind of permission XD |

I'm sure you could find the space if you were creative enough.

Now that's privacy, being the only one strong enough to lift your door Although if it's a 21 on Wall Lifting it's not that private... |

Gosh, think if you have a fire or need to use the bathroom...
That could be a disaster.

LOL. This is a good one to take into account if you're an architect: design a SASUKE obstacle-inspired house! You can't climb up the stairs, you have to Devil Step up underneath them. And you have to Dodectuple Step your way up the path to the front door.
