- Great Deep Dives into Training Methods
As a scientist, I’ve really enjoyed the deep dives into training methods. Climbing has been a periodic hobby, and I feel like this has equipped me to approach training more methodically, and also helped me understand why plateaus happen. One of the really helpful discussions was the endurance episode, where they de-emphasized power endurance and instead focused on gear 1 and gear 3. Worth a listen and subscribe!

I’ve really enjoyed these first 3 episodes. They strike a nice balance between providing useful, practical tips and tricks for training sessions and projecting, and delving deeper into psychological/emotional themes that you may not normally associate with pulling on rocks/plastic. Really looking forward to seeing what Mercedes and Katja have in store for upcoming episodes!
