It seems like everyday that a new training method pops up. Some are great. Some not so much. In this episode, Nate and I discuss several climbing training methods that have become popular, but that there just isn't enough evidence on yet to say that they actually work.

Like it or not, grades are a part of climbing, and I've recently been exploring how to have a good relationship with them. In that exploration, I've decided on a range that I believe any given grade represents.  But to stress test that range, I wanted to talk to someone who is an above average climber with an above average resume, spends a considerable amount of time thinking about this subject, AND who ISN’T the height of an average male like I am.  One person really stood above the others – pun intended. Juliet Hammer. She’s a coach, crusher, has been doing experiments concerning indoor grades and working on a resource for how to engage with grades. And she’s just shy of 5 feet tall. Perfect.  Check Out Juliet's Course Beyond Grades Juliet on YouTube Watch My Grade Videos Subscribe To The Current

Taking a tactical approach is important, but what is the goal? Are we getting this wrong?

But they don't need to be. This might be the simplest - and still effective - training plan for climbers of pretty much all levels.

In todays algorithmic age, we often get the advice and information that appeals to us - which isn't always the advice we need. In fact, the algorithm rewards advice that is just too good to be true. Nate and I discuss a few of the most common pieces of climbing advice that when examined, don't really hold up.

When climbers work a project, the process often goes straight from beta discovery to dialing in microbeta. This isn't wrong, but might be missing some important pieces.  Watch it on YouTube ➡️ASSESS AND IMPROVE YOUR TECHNIQUE ➡️MONTHLY CLIMBING THOUGHTS IN YOUR INBOX  Music Used: "Brandenburg Concerto No. 4 in G, Movement I (Allegro), BWV 1049" "Bass Vibes" "Bass Walker" "Rollin at 5" "String Impromptu Number 1" From: Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 4.0 License http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ DISCLAIMER: Climbing and training for climbing is inherently dangerous.

We regularly discuss microbeta and regular beta, but what about macrobeta?

Climbers often have strong opinions about things that may not actually matter so much. These are the tiny things that Nate and I feel strongly about, whether or not it matters.
