World 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

You make the climbs looks so chill then you say “this is a V10 at 45” and I remember how insane you guys are.

@XLessThanZ

It's nice watching Nathalia in a fun, non-competitive, environment. She looked so relaxed. Nice to see a side of her other than what I see in IFSC competitions. GO TEAM USA! 🇺🇸

@pxr3423

What a unique treat into the elusive mind of Natalia, especially as there's barely any non-comp Natalia content on KZfaq. Also loved watching iron sharpen iron!!

@bobfrommars321

Me, a V3 climber: yeah, you're right Natalia! Not winning a world cup final doesn't define me!

@AllegraClimbingPsychologist

I didn't know Natalia was studying psychology! Very cool to have her as a coworker! I'm very glad to see this sector growing 🙌💜

@higaski

Natalia is one of my favorite climbers to watch. She always seems to genuinely enjoy herself even during stressful comps.

@climbing_thomas

that video was so cool! i never saw natalia outside of a comp, so it was cool to see her personality!

@dylanpark8241

NATALIA THE CLIMBING GODDESS HAS ENTERED THE CHAT

@dustinphillips2855

Does anyone know what pants Natalia is wearing? They look very comfortable. Should do an advertisement for them.

@bonibroco1076

It's 2am here now and I couldn't sleep so I turn on my tab to find something that will put me to sleep. Didn't go as planned. I'm fully awake now 😂

@roapcoaching917

We hope you enjoy this episode as much as we had fun making it! Natalia is a superstar with such a level head for her age. We always climb with each other as she’s supportive, encouraging and positive! We are beyond psyched she’s made the Olympics and loved seeing her mindset when it comes to the games and comps in general!

@fabiopalma4429

Natalia is one of my favorites! Superb strength and movement. Go Natalia!!

@MikeW-md6gd

Great chill session with two world class athletes. Now back to my V2s ...

@MidLifeCrux

Really nice to hear such a healthy attitude about professional competition. The comment about just appreciating being at the comp really struck a nerve. My 20-something self didn’t have that kind of perspective.

@andysinclair7162

This video gains some awesome context from Natalia’s recent win at Salt Lake City. Well deserved of course, and couldn’t imagine a nicer winner!!

natalia is so cool!

@Captain-Jack-Climbing

Just started watching it. But I need to give it a like first before watching. I immediately know this episode is so good because it's so good!

@runforrest86

I feel like you are really finding your flow lately with your videos! This was one of my favs. Great chemistry between you and Natalia. Keep up the good work!

@raymondpeterdelacruz4849

Great job Everybody! The Q&A was insightful

@dveldhuizen5611

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!
