Heyyyy if you like this routine, check out Ieva on IG @luna.al.sol or UA-cam at "Community Yoga with Ieva Luna"! She's got a ton of awesome follow-alongs! Also, just to clarify, because this IS the internet after all: The research correlates your climbing ability to a few movements such as high foot placement (and ability to stand up from that position) as well as wide stances with or without foot external rotation. This means you'll have to have things like good hip flexion, hip abduction, knee flexion, and ankle dorsiflexion abilities -- which is where this routine comes in!
I often describe climbing to non-climbers as "yoga on the wall," so it's exciting to now have a yoga flow that will be specifically relevant for climbing. Also, yoga teachers are such a calm, positive force for good, and Ieva is no exception. She's fun and soothing to watch and follow. Great idea to collaborate, and thank you!
This routine is great, thanks for the collab guys. I have been using it 2-3 times per week and I can honestly say that it has really helped my climbing. When they need to, my legs now feel like two extra arms! The routine has both improved my slab work (better high stepping), but also my overhanging climbing as my feet are better able to pull and push from a lot of different angles! Anyway great work - i'll probably use this video another 1000-2000 times in my life time :)
This thing is really working for me. Been doing at least once a week for a couple months now. My hip mobility and climbing efficiency have noticeably improved 😧 Stick at it! The key for me has been consistency and not maxing out in the stretches.. if I do those I always feel there’s more ‘grease in the grooves’ the next day. I need to get up to consistent twice a week. Amazing content as always guys!
As both a climber and a very casual yogi, I loved this! It was awesome to feel myself pushing mobility in ways that felt so relevant to climbing movement. Great collaboration!
I just finished my 7th repeat of this routine and I have to say my ankles, knees, and hips feel bulletproof. I was struggling with a knee issue for awhile and the cossack squat + high lunge has seemed to fix it. Thank you very much Ieva and HB!
Wow 😄 so surprised to see a familiar face from the local climbing gym in Hooper's video ☺️ great video, definitely need to try this workout! Thanks! Ačiū 🙂
What a great idea! Thank you for sharing, and good job to Ieva for leading this routine! Looking forward to practicing this yoga flow this weekend with my climbing partner
My hips feel amaaaaaaaaaazing after this routine! Thank you so much for putting this together, and thank you for introducing us to Ieva!! Subbing and sharing her channel now, too :)
amazing video. i've been following leva's routines since last year and this video is so useful for rest days or antagonist and stabilizers days, perfect collaboration between you both!
Looks good! As a tall, inflexible dude I can still follow along with most of this, with some modification. I've tried yoga classes before, but just could not follow 80% of the routine and was in pain during and afterwards. Well done!
This is genuinely perfect for me. I have wanted to train these areas for a while, but its not as fun to do all the work of designing and guiding myself through it all. Excellent routine Ieva!
I just finished it, I used to do a lot of leva classes on her channel. IT WAS HARD! I want to do it again! I hope my flexibility/mobility will get better. Its also a good short 20 minutes flow perfect for busy people! I hope there was more core involed. Next time Ill do a quick 5 minutes of core before
I don't know if this will get lost in the ether of youtube comments but am loving this routine and wondering if the literature could inform a routine for recovering from a big day climbing? e.g after travelling a long way to climb it can be easy to put in a really big day and then you have to try and recuperate for the next week because of how sore the body is and that is hard work. Help!
Nice, Tomorrow is (active) resting day, will absolutley do this, my hips are kind of stiff from running right now. Too much running, too little climbing.
What are your thoughts on adding in specific shoulder and lat mobility poses/flows into this routine? Suggestions? Also, interesting that mobility in the shoulder girdle didn't show up in that research.
Their research was specifically looking at hip / lower extremity mobility :) You certainly could add in some specific shoulder mobility! We don't have a yoga flow on that (yet) but we do have two shoulder mobility videos you should check out!
I know this is an old comment but I find Ieva's after climbing flow has a lot of great shoulder work that complements this flow nicely: ua-cam.com/video/VbmK_j3qx4I/v-deo.html
Hi, I have a video request… I‘ve rarely seen climbers talking about hallux valgus / hallux rigidus. Also I‘m not sure how to treat it and what I should change in my climbing habit/ shoes. Would be exciting to get to know more about this topic :)
In warrior 3 try to keep hip level and top of the parallel to your mat. Bring chest up more if needed and work to it. In the yoga brick move, something is not right about the pelvic tilt but I can't say which way to correct it. I was a yogi before climbing and climbing is easier than I thought it would be once I figured out my center of gravity. I use lunges on the wall a lot. I have short legs and that extra hip ROM really helps me since a lot of routes are pretty reachy for me.
@Hooper's Beta Adapted footwork. Due to bunions, I also tend to use lots of knee dips to avoid edge of toes where possible. I just had foot surgery so after recovery, I can see how that has changed. I'll def be doing yoga to get back foot flexibility. Already at it but very modified with a boot for 3 more weeks.
Great content, thanks to you all. It's lucky Leva reminds you to breathe because I was white knuckling it through my first try! PS is Hooper on MDMA in the thumbnail?
Wish there was a progression. This was super hard and balance based. Felt like I couldn’t do most of the balance at the beginning and didn’t really accomplish much of the routine early. Know it’ll benefit later on though. But just starting is like I’m a newborn with no skill
I agree it is quite challenging if you're not used routines like this! I fell a million times the first time I tried it, so I focused on doing smaller movements and proper form rather than trying to follow along exactly. After a couple weeks of doing it regularly though I can now follow along with the full routine easily. Your mileage may vary of course, but stick with it and you should see improvements pretty quickly! :) -Emile
@@HoopersBeta Thanks for the lovely response. You make an excellent point. I need to focus on the process and good form, rather than tying to be an expert already. Got a little too result oriented and frustrated that I wasn’t already awesome! Lol. That’s why we’re doing this. To get better at something we don’t do enough. You both are amazing! Thanks for this wonderful yoga idea. Looking forward to more amazing content…as always 😀
Hooper- when I extend my arm strait out in front of me with the palm down and then push down on an immobile object I feel immediate sharp pain in my biceps by the elbow. What is wrong with me?
Haha your comment had me feeling both sadness and then happiness / laughter. I thought "nooo, that's a shame they didn't like it!" .... "ooohhh, I get it :)" lol.

That was nice from Emile: "Maybe smile aswell" :D
Made me smile actually! Will try the routine after the boulder session today. Looking forward to it!

Awesome!!
I just finished my gym session today thinking "Man I need more mobility", perfect timing
🎉 We must be mind readers!
Excellent...please consider making more..Thx
Absolutely!
What??? A collab between Ieva and Jason? Passat and namaste? Didn't really think it could happen but damn, this is legit! 💥
Haha, love your comment, Gui! Passat and namaste go very well together💪🏽
Thanks you all!
You're welcome!

Hey Emile, Jason , & Ieva - great routine.
I’ll be in Carlsbad next weekend. Let’s go climbing!
Loved this so much! thank you!! I love your transition sequences, super fun!!!!
This is genuinely perfect for me. I have wanted to train these areas for a while, but its not as fun to do all the work of designing and guiding myself through it all. Excellent routine Ieva!
Smiling to read your comment!
So useful guys, to have double the gains from a yoga session that will also translate to climbing. Thanks so much as always.
Heck yeah! Thanks for chiming in
Great! Thank you
so thankfull!
Thanks for making this video and posting it! After following along, I have discovered many weaknesses that I need to improve.
This is amazing! Can you do one for shoulder stability, too?
... or rather, stability and mobility. I need both.
We have many on shoulder stability :) But not one on mobility yet. Are you referring specifically to a follow along or just general information?
A yoga follow along with Ienya would be cool!
@@HoopersBeta A follow along for mobility would be cool! Or a combined routine to check off both stability and mobility.
@@HoopersBeta Love the channel, it's so helpful!
I *LOVE* this collaboration and routine! Thank you so much!
Super useful content and flow. Thanks both!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Awesome to know that it was useful!
I just tested it and it was awesome! Thanks ♡
Nice! Glad to hear that.
Been a fan of both of your work for ages, awesome stuff!
Really enjoyed that
Just what I need
Cheers.
Great to hear!
Thank you, Jason and Ieva, this looks great. Flexibility, balance, body control - just what I need! Thank you 🙏
It was definitely more of a workout than I expected! Hope it helps :)
-Emile
Let us know how it goes when you do the routine, Grahame!
Awesome content thanks hooper and leva
She's great!
THANK YOU SO MUCH 🙏❤️🙏❤️
This... is... awesome! Thank you!
Glad you like it!
Leva flow was outstanding. That was super hard so I guess I need to do it more!
Same! It has definitely helped Emile and I!
I just finished it, I used to do a lot of leva classes on her channel. IT WAS HARD! I want to do it again! I hope my flexibility/mobility will get better. Its also a good short 20 minutes flow perfect for busy people! I hope there was more core involed. Next time Ill do a quick 5 minutes of core before
I add a little more core too when I have extra time :)
-Emile

Ohh 5 stars! Thank you for the support!
really great idea. def gonna be trying this a couple times a week

At least you’re staying active! :)

This makes V7 seem easy! I thought yoga was supposed to be relaxing 😅
haha :) love this comment.

Would be exciting to get to know more about this topic :)
Good idea! Added to the list :)
WHAT A GREAT VIDEO!
I have made a lot of climbing progress by doing this routine regularly!
Thanks for sharing! Glad you're enjoying the routine :)
Can you make a video about climbing and thoracic outlet syndrome?
I'll have to see if there's any specific literature about a connection or relative incidence with climbing and TOS. Good idea.
I want that spray wall. Why do they do it so much better in Europe? Also, great video.
it is a beautiful setup, isn't it? I thought the same thing "dang, I wouldn't mind training there!"

Balance and footwork! (Or so it seems). So critical to climbing :) Thanks for the comment / share!

this is good!!

PS is Hooper on MDMA in the thumbnail?
He's just PSYCHED on mobility xD
-Emile
Thanks! That was excruciating 😅
Can we get a version of this great flow with about half of the talking, just the cues for the positions. Keep up the great work.
Ieva has a great UA-cam channel of her own; I'm sure she'd be willing to make something like that if it was requested :)
will try that!! thanks :)
I cannot stand still more than 2 secfor the single legs stances, any tips for starting?
Wish there was a progression. This was super hard and balance based. Felt like I couldn’t do most of the balance at the beginning and didn’t really accomplish much of the routine early. Know it’ll benefit later on though. But just starting is like I’m a newborn with no skill

I fell 10000 times.
😂 same here!
That was the idea! Hopefully you had fun at the same time?! 😆

First apart is very difficult
Hooper's just tryina get us to do a core workout
I just finished another round myself! Feels great.
I hated every minute of it. I guess that means it's exactly what I need. Thank you so much for this routine!
Haha your comment had me feeling both sadness and then happiness / laughter. I thought "nooo, that's a shame they didn't like it!" .... "ooohhh, I get it :)" lol.
That half moon pose was soooo difficult
It kills me every time! I shake like a leaf
to fast for me @18:00
Algogogo
1:40
hearing "A-B-duction" hurt my brain...
(it is also LESS easy to hear correctly than just pronouncing abduction -vs adduction)
absolutely useless for beginners...
Looks easy... until you do it and then its a killer
Agreed!
just climb more
