I don't care if you're 80 lbs overweight... if you can't get up 5.8, you need technique QUICK! Agreed though... general fitness is a must if you want to excel at any sport. I'm making the assumption that people who are "into" training are already generally fit.pkananen wrote:For an overweight man who can't get up 5.8, some of those things certainly will help, if only by taking off the 30 pounds he shouldn't be carrying. For a 5.12 (5.11? 5.10?) climber, those things won't help.512OW wrote:That's my point Clif. I don't know a damn thing about running or yoga... because I don't need to. Why spend all the time trying to do all the other bullshit you've read will help (weights, running, p90x, yoga, cross training, etc...), when climbing is what makes you better at climbing?clif wrote:
