    "Ich kan nicht" wondering what's your first language if you don't mind me asking ? I remember having a discussion with a guy in Geneva who was a Brit married to a Swiss Italian living in Geneva but having lived in Zurich before, and he said that his 3 kids all had different mother tongues and all basically spoke 4 languages by age 7. And having heard you now speak German on top of French and English, I seems like a similar-ish situation ? Good luck for the winter training and hope to see you in a bunch of World Cup semis next year !

    nice video, can very much relate!! a great tip i learned from @richardsonsclimbing is, to point your thumbs downwards when spreading the arms like you did there. it rotated your arms and gets more weight near the wall, especially the shoulders. im too lazy to search the video where he goes over this but it has helped me a ton :)

      I commented the same thing below! But my comment got hidden. Your comment is hidden too, and doesn't show up unless you change the comment sorting to be "sorted by newest first". I don't know why these comments are being hidden. My guess is that the comment contains a two-word-phrase about a finger and a specific direction that the finger is pointing, so maybe youtube considers it as a "negative comment" and then gets hidden by default.

    Not as fun to train the weak spots as it is to train, what you are good at - but in order to get better, that is exactly what you need to do👍👍👍. Of course you will never get that particular slab again in a competition, but it represents/has nuances of climbing, you are currently not great at, and it makes great sense to use it for training. 👍👍💪💪👍👍

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but it seems your external rotation could be the root of your issue here. It looks like after many reps, you were warmed up enough and could open your hips a little bit more, helping you out with the movement :). Anyhow, love the content :)

    You should try the "thumbs down on slab" technique that Zach Richardson has talked about. It is perfect for slabs like this. I can't link to videos in the comments, but it's on the Richardsons Climbing youtube channel. Look up the video titled "unreal psych with Alexandre Bernaud" and skip to 49 minutes into the video.

    The 8-12 rep range for muscle building is pretty old bro science. Newer research shows that for muscle building literally anywhere between 5-30 rep sets performs pretty much the same. So if you wanna gain strength and build muscle its best to just do your sets at the lower end, so 5 reps or so. (Since muscle gain is the same between 5 and 30 reps assumming both are trained to near failure). Of course if power endurance or endurance is the goal higher reps are also valid, talking purely about strength gain here.
