Everyone is entitled to their own opinion but sports will always trend towards what is more popular and thus makes more money

just let people have fun dude

i struggle with a lot of stuff ppl find entertaining but i dont have to do none of that bs and that makes me very happy!

Interesting, why do you think that is?

I don't think we've got a dedicated video on conditions but that topic will come up in many of our videos. I think of conditions as effecting two major variable. The first is external i.e. the rock temperature, sun exposure etc. Certain types of rock may feel like they have the best friction at different temperatures. And of course you need it to be dry. Humidity and wind will have a factor in this. Secondly in internal conditions i.e. your body. Some people perform well in the cold, other need it to be warmer. If your skin in naturally very dry you might need to balance this with external conditions and wait for a bit more humidity. Or if you have softer or sweaty skin you might look for cooler temps and low humidity. Its mostly about maximizing friction between you and the rock. But you'll look to manipulate multiple factors; temps, wind speed, wind direction, sun, shade, humidity, time of day. These will change depending on individual preference. Then we can also use tools to manipulate our environment like portable fans (wind). Or use things like drying agents to reduce sweat on your skin. It's a science and an art.

@@LatticeTraining Awesome! thank you!! Exactly because of being Science & Art, it would be so interesting for a full video. Just throwing it out there haha. I assume that because is something will truly only affect people at a higher level, this knowledge come with experience. And by the time you need to apply this, you already have the knowledge with the experience. If that makes sense.

If using an MX Edge at home, you have a few options. But the simplest and preferable method is to lift weights with it. The ideal set up would be a set of weight plates, a lifting pin and a carabiner. You can see Ollie use this exact set-up from @5:56 in this video. You don't need a climbing carabiner, a cheap one from a DIY store should be suitable. They should be rated for more than enough weight.

@LatticeTraining oh ok understood, thanks a lot! I'll start immediately 😁❤
