      try incorporating the slack-line into your training. the absolute best thing for balance, and a nice break for your fore-arms.

    Great tips and information here. Thanks so much. Will practise these.
    I down climb on every route. I traverse if I can't reach the holds on the original route, and use more difficult foot/hand holds to get used to those. I hate the sensation of jumping down. 😏
    Edit. My local climbing gym is very small and usually packed in the evenings. I'll go during weekdays when it's not so busy when doing the traversing drill.

    Coincidentally I have been focusing a lot on slabs in my training today, but I still couldn't overcome the fear when standing on a tiny foothold and that my face is going to grind against the wall if I slipped... thanks for the video!

      Slab is certainly a challenging mental game - I totally get that and it's still a struggle I'm working on. Something I've been testing that might help you too - I try to recreate the movement I'm struggling with while I'm are closer to the ground. Then when I'm up higher I tend to have more confidence. Good luck and keep up the hard work!

    Awesome video can we take a minute to appreciate the transverse wall …. Who knew hold art was a thing

    I know that routine -- find the kids' room to practice traversing. :D

      The kids room is so great for traversing! Ever since I figured that out, traversing has gotten soooo much more attention from me :)
