Everyone climbs for different reasons, some just to release the stress of the day, others because projecting is fun.

Here’s a few reasons why someone might consider training.

Lack Of Progress

When we started climbing it was all progress, it came thick and fast, but now its slowed, there seems to be a ceiling that you just can’t break through, well maybe its time to shake that tree, maybe its time to make a short term i.e 6 week sacrifice for some long term gain.

Training Is Fun

Learning, progress, variety are all fun, a good training program will contain all of these to some degree, never trained before? Well you are in luck! even a small change in stimulus will result in big changes. A lot of gyms these days offer climbing classes, a regular crew of people who come to train together, you can book into them with your mates and all train together for a block.

It Is Cheap

In todays online world you can train for very cheap, design your own program from an E-Book for around $20, or have something designed for you, like our basic program which is 6 weeks of training through an app starting at $120, that’s only $20 per week. Often these online programs give you some ideas as to how to train yourself.

Better Climbs

Often the better moves, most aesthetic lines and more fun climbing are on the harder boulders, at some point you are going to have to put some work in to get tot them anyways.

Lack Of Motivation

Can’t be bothered training today? Well that’s the beauty of having a plan or program, you can just turn up and execute, start with a small goal, I want to do 10% of the program today, then expand it up from there.

Time Efficiency

Short on time? Having a coach look over your technique and write a 30 or 45 minute effective workout based on building your lesser strengths is a great way to boost progress while reducing time investment.
