While there is abundant information about physical preparation for climbing, there is very little concerning the mental and technical aspects and almost nothing regarding skill acquisition in climbing. Ideas to improve your climbing is a three part video series that sheds some light!

Let’s be clear – if you believe that climbing performance is only dependent on your physical fitness and can be therefore improved with only physical training – these videos are not for you!
While the first video deals extensively with aspects like mobility and shoulder health, I quickly expand to climbing biomechanics and new developments in climbing technique to prepare you for the demands of modern bouldering and climbing. Even all that means nothing, if you neglect the perceptive, cognitive and psychological side of things, after all – If you don’t feel, hear or see anything, how can you activate those muscles?

So, if you see potential for improving your climbing by caring about aspects like motor learning, practice design and Perception-Action coupling, please read on and consider my Ideas to improve your climbing!

The first part of “Ideas to improve your Climbing” covers:
* readiness for climbing,
* ways to analyze climbing movement,
* strategies to achieve unconscious competence in climbing
* a methodical exercise series showcase for using momentum
* and finally ways to stress proof your climbing.
I won’t explicitly explaining isolated climbing skills here.
And the reason is that even a gentle twist of a hold can entirely change the ideal climbing solution.
Instead I’ll lay out the Principles of quadrupedal vertical locomotion, so that you can than apply that knowledge in a variety of climbing situations, not just one.
