How to Push Your Grade with a Pro Climber

[@freddiedaniel6020]

starting to realise sometimes i forget to try hard

[@BoffaG1]

Same. Same

[@allyusjaeger9145]

Yeah i intentionally don't try hard as I'm worried about breaking a pulley, so i alwaysbtry to out-technique the climb before i just get mad and muscle through it.

[@destrucam9099]

It is good to see that Shagy, from scooby doo is now a pro climber, I mean, climbing is getting popular nowadays.

[@JoshRundle]

😂😂😂

[@AurallWow]

Ultra Instinct Shaggy wasn't even using 1% of his power

[@0-Will-0]

Huzzah my dream was achieved, I have appeared in one of your videos. Albeit for a second in the background! We were excited to see you filming, thanks for all your great videos 😊

[@justsomefellow4634]

Yeah it was weird to go down to my local gym and just see Josh there

[@JoshRundle]

Haha nice!!! Keep an eye out on the instagram if you want to be in one I’m gonna be doing some more subscriber videos in 2024! Aw thank you, hopefully meet you properly soon! Thanks for watching 😃

[@mystishio]

Seemed like a fun session with Mat and Anna, and like most climbers I see, I need to remember to try HARD every once in a while ✌️

[@meethman46]

I've watched Anna and Mat climb in Lancaster and Kendal, both incredible climbers and lovely people!

[@JoshRundle]

They are awesome aren’t they!

[@sylvaingilbert6296]

Love the vibe between y'all! 😊

[@EllaClarke-ht3vb]

Matt is back! Great to see him and Anna on the channel :) also well climbed Josh !

[@JoshRundle]

Mat is back!! Him and Anna will be in a few more videos coming up too!

[@boulderup9c]

Very fun and entertaining video! Actually comforting to hear even a V15 climber call a slab scary! One thing that would improve the experience for climber-viewers is to always keep the "next" hold in frame so we know what's coming. Keep up the great work, Josh!

[@andysinclair7162]

Very good tips on managing the boulder projecting process, great session all three!!

[@BoffaG1]

Love the vids. Mat is a legend

[@JoshRundle]

Yay pleased you liked it! Mat is a legend

[@ayuminor]

Josh Magnus Wright 😂 The delivery on that was flawless haha

[@JoshRundle]

😂😂 good name for a baby

[@saint3211]

Oh this is the gym i started climbing at, I'm still new to climbing but it's a fun place ^_^

[@JoshRundle]

It’s a great gym

[@KrispClimbs]

Great video!! I dread to think how terrifying that black "fridge" climb is in person 😵‍💫

[@JoshRundle]

Thanks! It was a bit scary 😅 but super fun

[@AurallWow]

I always see these videos of gyms abroad with such a high density of routes on the wall. Do they keep these around for many months at a time or something? The gyms I visit have them up for at most 1,5-2 months before everything's replaced, but there's far less on the wall at a time. Seems better for that problem where you bump into the wrong holds too, haha.

[@janexu4244]

Being tall really does have quite an advantage. Not to take away from you being really strong too! But I think some climbs you made it look easier cause you were already halfway there

[@SethScar33]

It's an advantage, until it isn't. What short people tend to forget that yeah, we are tall, but we are also heavy. There's a reason why most pro climbers are average or short.

[@janexu4244]

@@SethScar33 True! Ofc there are advantages and disadvantages to both. But I have personally seen a lot of men especially at the gym who are extremely tall and because of that, they skip half the climb. I've seen tall people who can do a lot harder grades not because of their technique but because of their length haha. But I've also seen some struggle with an easier grade like a V4 because it is slightly more cramped where I have found the same climb easier :) And there are also some tall climbers where it's obvious they are not just tall but also have impeccable technique and body awareness. I think generally as a beginner, you have much more of an advantage being tall until you get to harder grades when you also need technique and not just height.

[@indigohjelle]

love this!

[@JoshRundle]

Wooo thank you 🙏

[@davyvanderschoot6406]

Mat's pretty hilarious

[@JoshRundle]

Mats the best

[@Miura.Powers]

Josh is just too fucking strong!

[@JoshRundle]

Thanks 😃😃

[@Miura.Powers]

@@JoshRundle or maybe you're just fucking tall. We might never know :) Nice Video as always. ;)

[@JoshRundle]

@@Miura.Powershaha well here is the tall small answer kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z4i8k2uPeLllorMsi=ILg_1MovtC48VQQW Thank you 🙏

[@qiyamyamsixtysix8676]

Hey man, stumbled over your profile a week or so ago. Love the content you're making ! Keep killing

[@JoshRundle]

Hi! Thank you so much, lots more to come 😃

[@alpcanonur5472]

The red/wood Cheeta hold look sooo nice.

[@JoshRundle]

They are awesome!!!

[@adamhaas141]

Matt still bumps off of the white blob slightly as he moves his hands. At some point, you gotta start blaming the setters or whoever pressures them to put up so many big-blob climbs. I've recently seen this same sort thing happen to Anna Hazlenutt and Nikken Daniels. You can only put so many high-profile holds on the same wall before the climbs start ruining each other.

[@EllaClarke-ht3vb]

Really liked this video thank you 😃

[@JoshRundle]

Thank you!! So happy you liked it!

[@vergilliuss4421]

damn Josh climbing with iDubbbz now

[@ilegroeg]

6:58 adorable

[@Drinked_]

Hey josh!

[@JoshRundle]

Hi 👋!

[@daniel_brqlo]

Almost every video about climbing training right now focuses on indoor bouldering... actual rock climbing is becoming more and more of a rare thing...

[@JoshRundle]

That’s true! It seems less people are interested in rock climbing so when we try and make outdoor vids they don’t perform as well as the indoor videos.

[@AurallWow]

​@JoshRundle I think that's because bouldering is becoming more popular in many areas that just don't have outdoor climbs. Here in the Netherlands there's gyms everywhere, but we'd need to go abroad to climb outdoors. As such, I don't think anyone here cares for the outdoor bits, but we love indoors stuff.

[@mihkelhint]

Dude climbs so crazy hard outside yet keeps doing this pretend pointless spotting with indoor climbs few feet above ground and mats everywhere, wonder if this is just a habbit from outside or some inside joke or what lol :D

[@AurallWow]

Was wondering about this as well, hahaha

[@XxGamer]

That's so mean you called him the Goat Man from Narnia.

[@JoshRundle]

Don’t worry Mat and I have a great relationship where we always joke like that together. No feelings were hurt

[@FB711_]

Mr. Tumnus/James McAvoy is a fine goat man.

[@wladcapiekla]

First

[@JoshRundle]

Boom 💥

[@frederickmead7943]

Why does mat look like a 50 year old woman these days?

[@JoshRundle]

😂😂😂 Karen?
