The Trainingbeta Podcast | A Rock Climbing Podcast

In the episode, Coach Matt Pincus talks about how he trained all winter/spring for his 5.14b project in Wyoming this summer and some mistakes he made along the way. While Matt is a seasoned coach and climber, he was under some various constraints that made training challenging this year. One of those constraints was that Matt was working at a restaurant and coaching for a total of about 70 hours per week, so his plan needed to be efficient. The other is that he only had a board to climb on the entire time, and not that much other equipment. He made some mistakes along the way and suffered some consequences, and he’ll tell you all about what he learned in this episode. I think anyone listening to this episode will learn a few things about proper training tactics, whether you have similar constraints or not.   Episode Details What he did (and is doing) to train for his 5.14b project this summer What went wrong How he fit training in to 70+ hour work weeks Injuries/inflammation that occured How he’s dealing
