Okay let’s address the ‘alien sounds’… I ran the audio through AI software to enhance the quality and reduce background noise (a couple of shots were filmed close to a hand dryer) but for some reason AI decided the video would be enhanced by some extra-terrestrial voices just to keep you on your toes. Or maybe it’s subliminal messaging to encourage you to buy a Tindeq progressor… who knows 👀👽

I think the takeaway for me here (someone who does NOT have the "too strong" problem) is definitely the "repeat mid range boulders" note. Thinking about my own climbing, I am rarely repeating the problems that are hard flashes or I get within 2-3 attempts. I feel like there are a lot of problems that I do once and leave forever to chase whatever has been newly set. Definitely going to try to do some of those more difficult flashes 3-5 times until they feel like easy climbs, I think that's a great one for any type of climber.

I’m a music teacher who’s been climbing for a year. Louis is a fantastic teacher with such a positive outlook. He’s actually helped me be a better teacher and I actually did the opposite where I used the analogy of my personal journey with climbing to practicing music to a student

Ай бұрын

Great video. I especially liked the little tweaks to the orange climb that made it more and more efficient. As an overweight female climber I find those tweaks especially helpful, because I cannot rely on my strength and those small differences often mean the difference between sending a climb or not. And speaking of climbing while being overweight, I have a video suggestion :D. It is very very rare to see overweight climbers (especially female climbers) who climb well because - let's face it- weight plays a big role in climbing, so there is no one to look up to and see that despite being overweight one can climb well. It would be great if you could coach someone overweight on a relatively hard climb as a proof of that and highlight that even though it might be harder it is still worth trying the sport and sticking to it, as well as the silver lining in climbing overweight - that one is forced to learn good technique from the very beginning, because we cannot rely on strength as much.

Your music analogy is pure gold. Also I loved that section about teaching every step vs. teaching by setting the appropriate exercise and letting the student mindfully work their way through. During school I made the experience that this is exactly how you learn something deeply. I think a good teacher is one who provides students with lots of learning opportunities and useful materials / exercises, not one who tries to do the learning for them and tells them the results. Otherwise you will never perform without your teacher standing behind you and telling you what to do.

Definitely not one of those climbers you're talking about, but I've only recently started climbing, about 2 months, and I've made huge process, especially for someone with the upper body strength of a wet towel. I've gone from struggling on 4A to flashing 5B and projecting 6A (haven't sent it yet), and I can honestly credit most of the things that have helped me to this channel. Especially all the mindset tips you give have really made a huge difference for me. My climbing friends are actually impressed with my attitude and the 'relentless optimism' I've blatantly copied from Louis. So thank you! And keep doing what you're doing, I'm just one of many you've inspired!

I'm a professional musician who took up climbing a few years ago, and I find there are so many techniques I use during my music practice that I can relate to climbing. One of my professors would often say "Once you've done something one time you've proven you have the ability to do it. Now you just need to become consistent." He would also say "Less talk, more rock!" 😅

@enricopaolini4091 Ай бұрын

i've been climbing for 4 month now and i've been able to climb a couple of 7A already, and that is ONLY because in my first month i got crazy OCDs about fixing my climbing efficency and understand how my body moves on the wall or in the air. I'm not that strong, i surely am no joke about strength, but i'm surely not the strongest in my gym. efficiency of movements is a blessing sometimes. Lateral climbing is one of the solutions that i use the most and most of the time it's SO easy to over-reach holds just by lateral climbing and work with your core and hips rather than with hands or shoulders. Thank you for sharing this beautiful video. I really feel like you and a couple of other KZfaqs like Ed or Emil improved A LOT my climbing technique even just by watching, understand it and try it.

@Chef8898 Ай бұрын

I've been climbing for just two months now and have already smashed through several 7Bs in multiple gyms. Honestly, it's been a breeze. Why? Because I cracked the code to climbing efficiency in my very first week. Strength is overrated. It's all about technique and efficiency. I've practically written a book on lateral climbing by now. , I can reach holds that others only dream of. It's like a cheat code for climbing! Let me walk you through my process, because clearly, not everyone gets it. I spent countless hours analyzing climbing videos, breaking down every single movement frame by frame. My notes are a work of art, detailing everything from grip techniques to foot placements. Visualization exercises? Check. I mentally rehearse every climb to perfection. And my training regimen? It’s on another level. I’ve crafted a custom workout that includes yoga for flexibility, Pilates for core strength, and high-intensity interval training for endurance. This comprehensive approach ensures that every muscle in my body is optimized for peak performance. Thank you for sharing your comment, by the way. It's cute to see the basics being covered. I’ve been dissecting videos from Louis, Magnus and other KZfaqrs like Emil as well. They’ve been a nice addition to my already extensive training routine. Watching, understanding, and trying out these techniques has been child’s play for me. Keep up the good work! Maybe someday you’ll catch up. 😏

So I end up limited by strength AND technique, which makes for a discouraging experience. Giving myself a challenge to work towards other than just "get to the top" I think will help a lot.

Hi Louis! Tried this yesterday together with some of my team kids. especially the blind climbing was an awesome and fun experience. I don't know if you had the same experience, but for me personally the most interesting thing that happened during this exercise was that height did not play a role at all anymore, once you climbed with you eyes cloesed. every move felt about the same and I couldn't tell if I am barely off the ground or 3m up. Will definitely play around with this a little bit more. Thanks for all the awesome videos!

@antoninjarolim9378 Ай бұрын

Video quick recap: Warmups: - be aware of each move/tension/pull/push you do - try climbing without using any arm strenght - move right hand only with right toehook etc. - toehooks only/heel hooks only Practice middle grade boulders (analogy to music): - learn the notes one by one - try different approches/versions - choose exact song version - repeat this version until comfortable playing in front of audience

@user-bf4rp8ou7w Ай бұрын

This vid reminds me alot of the video lattice did where they talk about getting better at technique through climbing with constraints over doing isolated technique drills. With the isolated technique drills yes maybe you get really good at a specific technique in very specific isolated scenarios, but then its hard to actually apply it to your general climbing where you have a million different variables that will alter the movement depending on what climb youre doing. With constraint driven climbing instead of focusing on the technique itself, and the times its best to use it. youre constraining your options making the technique you want to get better at the only or at least best option. This forces you to learn in a way thats more adaptable and applicable to your climbing in general.

Complimentary perspective to your music analogy, when I skated as a tween some of the older lads said to me “you can’t do something until you can do it 3 times in a row”. Obviously that isn’t practical with limit projects at the gym, where everything is being reset, but for mid grade climbs it really works well as a mindset

@CatalystClimbing Ай бұрын

Yep love that! When I’m in a session with Louis, I’ll be working a move, and then when I get it he’ll say “bet you can’t do it 5 times in a row”… even repetition of one move can be super beneficial.
