9 ай бұрынWorld Champion and Paris 2024 Olympic climber, Natalia Grossman joins Alex Puccio for a climb and Q&A session at @thespotgym Denver
We come full-circle as Alex used to Coach Natalia when she was younger. Now the apprentice turns coach as she helps Alex through some jumps before they turn to the @KilterClimbingGrips Board for a power session.
Find out what Natalia does to warm-up, how she rests before a comp and her incredible approach to competitions, why she is smiling so much and how she can get in the zone ready to perform, despite there being expectations and pressure!
We hope you enjoy this session as much as we did.
A big thanks to @Natalia_grossman (Insta handle) and @thespotgym for allowing us to film and to the @panamsports channel for a few clips of Natalia qualifying for the 2024 Paris @Olympics

Random question, is the cameraman the commentator for IFSC comps? I recognize the voice but I'm not 100% sure. Also, is Alex often the co-commentator?

It's so cool to see professional climbers being so genuine likeable und caring for others. Janja, Natalia, I don't care who wins, it feels so good seeing you having fun and enjoying what you're doing. There are lots of sports out there where I think: Do you even like what you're doing?
@roapcoaching917 3 күн бұрын
Completely agree. We also love seeing the "supportive" mentality, which was shared this year in the gymnastics. Each athlete cheering one another on to push the sport and themselves. It was great to see a closer competition in Paris too, with the top 3 or 4 athletes being within 4-6 moves (in terms of points)!

Great video! I think this is what separates the good from the greats. The greats have fun in what they do and Natalia is a great example of that. Its something I (a climber myself) struggle with sometimes. Especially in comps I get really upset after a competition that didnt go so well and get really stuck in my own head sometimes. Like Natalia said a comp doesnt define who you are and that really stuck with me. Keep up the great work creating this awesome content!
