thanks! You are making a lot of sense, very useful. Hope your channel grows quickly.
I would like to add something to the "climb regularly/a lot"-part. for context: i am an indoor climber and trying to break into what is supposed to be 7a (grades indoors are wacky buisness and outdoor climbing need a way bigger skillset all around) i although boulder a lot
for me training/climbing volume over intensity did a lot for my climbing. instead of destroying myself in a session I rather try to train to a point where I feel well enough to climb the next day, or the day after. then i would mix in weeks in which i drop the volume and focus on quality trys in less but longer sessions with good resting periods. i know that not everybody can do that hence not having the time for that much climbing, but it worked for me. maybe someone will find it helpful.
key for me is to listen to your body and challenge it from time to time, but never ask to much from it. nothing costs more time and progress then an injury. good climbing to y'all!
I'm kind on that path....I arrived at similar conclusions so far. I'd add to the mental preparation "get friendly with the idea of spending a lot of time hanging from the rope " and "don't get frustrated, it's a hard route, you'll be struggling this time".
Those are my personal biggest challenges
Thanks for this videos !!!
Help me.a lot
Thanks man! Everything you have said is so simple, so true and so needed to be done :) "Wanting to climb hard" - 👍👍👍
When the coach is British I shut up and listen! Thanks from 🇺🇸
Crystal clear👌🏻
Thanks man, im 14 just finished my first 6c+ on lead looking at a 7a next 👀
We want an update dude! How's the 7a going? 🙂
Great video, my goal is a 6c now I'm around 6a... maybe start some 6b
Me too man!!
You can do it!
Good advice, thanks!
No problem!
nice, a lot of training sense, would apply to any grade improvement
Great video !! Came here from Facebook
Awesome! Thank you!
Nice vid
good to hear you talking about resting - this is so overlooked!
Resting is key on both a larger scale and on a smaller scale. Large scale : Rest days from training Small scale : Finding the strategic rest positions on the route (almost all routes have them)
It really is!
Great advices, one small note, but it doesn't really matter: 7a is actually 5.11d, 7a+ is 5.12a
and X- in UIAA... there are rarely any routes in our climbing gyms here with that grad! o.O
or is he talking about french 7a, which would be VIII ?
No. 7a has small holds and inexistence footholds. Only true heroes can climb that stuff.
Why this video is a shameless plagiarism of JB Mountain Skills video that he posted a month and a half before? If you agree almost word by word with him, why don’t refer us to his video?
Jez is a good friend of mine and actually suggested this video series.
I taught him everything he knows :p 😂
Haha dude thought he was standing up for justice 🤣
MrEscuchimi you are a bad person.
