Place them softly and precisely on a hold don't just slam them on so your pretty much making no noise with your feet

Love this playbook, Thank You! I am 55 and started a year ago, no trainer except for some initial “orientation”. I plateau at V2 projecting V3. Main problem is always trying to use upper body strength to bail me out, so I will follow your steps to emphasize on technique. One unaddressed issue: fear. If I do abort a V2 on the last 1 or 2 moves, then usually because of fear of falling, especially if the last move appears somewhat dynamic (stick or fall). I got one training session just about falling, ie climb up a route and intentionally fall, each time climb a bit higher. But in the route the top 25% just feel too scary.

I just started climbing in the Fall with a course at my local community centre. I think I'm hooked so I'm going to try to follow this path to try to improve in a systematic way, as opposed to my current 'try shit and see what works' approach. Which has been fun, but is probably not the best strategy.

I just love your content Sara, it helps a lot and it is soooo inspiring! I’ve been climbing consistently for almost a year and right know I am climbing V3’s. My progress is not as fast as I want it to be but I always try to notice what my weaknesses are and what can I do to improve my climbing on the next session. Today I realized that the main factors which stop me from improving faster are footwork and routereading, so my goal is to work on placing feet more intentionally and quietly, as well as really pay attention to reading routes carefully. I’ll try to use this 8-week plan starting from the next bouldering session - I’m sure it will help me to get better at climbing🧗‍♀

Love this plan. Thanks. I'm a 5.9-5.10a climber at the moment. I've been climbing for about 3 months (inconsistently) so this great for me. I do believe that consistent work on details can get me to the next level. I can already see some improvement because I have spent some time practicing quiet feet, same leg + same arm, and twisting more. Its made the 5.8-5.9 climbs feel much easier. I'm still struggling on the 5.10+ stuff much more because it seems like the holds and moves are just very different. I encounter lots of slopers with big moves off of unstable footholds (or requiring wall smears). All of which sounds appropriate as you move up. I feel like strength is becoming more critical now but I could be wrong.

It’s really cool to hear how you’re feeling those improvements-keep at it! 💪 I’ve coached climbers who can flash 12.a but can’t do an unassisted pull-up so keep technique at the forefront of your training it can certainly help you through the 10s :)

I've been climbing since July and In may 2025 i want to send my first V5-6 (My gym has it's own grading system from 1 to 9 so i don't really know the V grades, but I want to climb 6 and i've been told it's in the range of V5-6), the only thing keeping me from climbing harder rn is my finger strength, i can hang on crimps but when im climbing my fingers hurt after like 5 boulders and my skin is absolutly demolished after a workout. Any ideas on how to strongen the tendons quick in home? My forearms are actually decent but my tendons suck.
@SendEdition
@SendEdition 6 күн бұрын
Skin and tendons can be significant limiters for climbers. But since you are feeling pain after climbing a few routes, I’d test to see if you have a pre-injured fingers tendons. Essentially, if you’re feeling pain, you have to recover before significant gains can be made. Luckily there have been a few studies about tendon care so I’d spend some time researching that before doing any strength training program. Rehab first. Good luck with your fingers!

My goals are… to become a better climber and progress to trad/ice climbing, only downside is I’m 46 and climbed indoors for the 1st time this month. Any advice?
@SendEdition
@SendEdition 6 күн бұрын
I’m not seeing a downside to your goals - they sound great! I would recommend taking classes or going through a school for learning trad and ice climbing though. Even better - a certified company/pro to train you on how to do it. There is a difference between great climbers and great teachers - you will benefit the most from a teacher :) have the most fun and stay safe!

Currently projecting v5-7 highest I’ve done is about 5 v6s and about 80 percent through a 7 and v3 on moon board because my preferred style is slab and I need to work on overhang and explosive moves, so my overhang is very anti style. I want to be able to climb at least v6 overhang, (currently about a 5) and climb v7, start projecting v8 slab towards end of year. I want to start grinding moonboarding, hang board, warm up strictly, take breaks between climbs, mindset and general usage of technique more often ,
@SendEdition
@SendEdition 7 күн бұрын
That sounds like a great plan for the year. I’m with you on working on overhang and explosiveness-board climbing will definitely help with that. Also, warming up is underrated-it is magical what your body can do when it's properly prepared. Thanks for sharing and good luck!

Love your content - one of a couple of channels I keep coming back to. I've been climbing a for a few years, pretty consistently, but climbing v2 / 5.7-5.8 on the local walls, which is definitely slower progress than I wanted. Goals within the next six months: consistently clean v3, 5.9 and project v4, 5.10, get my lead cert, and take it outside! Plans to get there: I train strength, although I believe beta and footwork are where the money is. Def climbing the walls 2x a week - one specifically technique focused, and getting some coaching once a month or so. I'm trying to be more intentional and aware, but once I'm on the wall, it's hard for me to stay aware in that way. I may drop down to some easier walls just to see if removing the element of challenge makes it easier to focus on changing _how_ I climb. I like the idea of summarizing each session, because writing in a journal may help me build that awareness - going to go back to hear your four questions again....

Reading through "77 Drills to Help You Climb Better" - drills, like quiet feet - I've never quite connected with drills like quiet feet, but you kinda make that case with "targeted skill development" and "muscle memory" - reading... may try a drill on Th AM...
@SendEdition
@SendEdition 7 күн бұрын
Sounds like you've got a great plan! Many climbers find that learning and practicing skills and techniques on easier routes is a great way to develop them so that you don't have to think so much about applying them on harder routes because it seems natural - so I believe you are on the right track :)
@SendEdition
@SendEdition 7 күн бұрын
So glad to hear that you're practicing quiet feet and other targeted drills. I have to confess that I didn't get the full value of quiet feet until I was climbing much harder routes and revisited the drill - even though it is more fundamental, it is also incredibly helpful when you put the time and focus into it

I’ve been climbing roughly a couple of months, I’m improving quite slowly when it comes to the harder climb, normally I climb a couple of times a week been starting to use the hang board, I’ve noticed the difference since I’m getting stronger, think I need a couple of lessons maybe to help guide me to tougher goals, watching your videos helps with tips using toes instead of flat feet to the wall, plus using my legs more.. keep making excellent videos and and massive thank you for inspiring new climbers like myself ❤

Thanks for the kind words, I appreciate it! Also, it sounds like progress is the goal - which is great. If I could suggest 2 things: 1) make sure you're taking measures to prevent finger injuries (especially with hangboarding or other finger strength exercises) and 2) don't forget to keep fun at the center of climbing. It makes every step of the journey more enjoyable and worthwhile :)

My goals are to "start" Ive been looking on longingly for a while, but I'm scared because I'm 330lbs, so gravity means more to me than it does others. It's hard to "plan" around doing college and working full time, but I live very close to a gym. I can probably go there for one weekend.

Things like improving on daily walking goals or bodyweight strength/mobility goals, does anything like that peak your interest too? Like you I want to climb so so badly but keep getting small injuries, and I felt fear, so finally, I just decided try to to slow down on the go-to-the-gym excitement and instead I’m diving into walking and strength goals harder first. It’s helping me think of it as a longer term plan? .. stay hopeful and don’t be afraid to take your time, it’s ok, you’ll get to climb! You got this
