Climb Smart: Boulder Training Efficiency ⚡ | Tips & Tricks by Adam Ondra

No matter what level you are climbing at, there are a few basic rules that apply to all climbers when training on a bouldering route. The ideal composition of a bouldering session should include 30 minutes of warm-up and 90 minutes of climbing. It is important to try out different profiles and styles that the bouldering area has to offer. Choose boulders that are just challenging enough so that you won't complete them in one attempt or that you'll struggle with and might not be able to top them at all. Take long breaks, at least five minutes, between each attempt. Never spend too much time on a single boulder problem. Leave what you can't climb for your next visit.

The climbing community really is unique in that so many professionals are so openly willing to share their experience. From Adam’s typical bouldering session, the whole lattice training YouTube channel, the free crack tutorials from the wide boyz, the hours of incredibly detailed analysis from Dave McLeod…
It’s not taken for granted!

[zelpingk]

man i love how Adam always has this little smile on his face when he talks about climbing, keep up the series!

[fennegvdgvd]

Easy warm up boulder, gets on a 7A. I knew it.

[louisbayle]

As a senior climber, I feel like the non-climbing warmup movements are extremely important too, and I'd be very interested in such a session !
thank you very much, it is a great training lesson !

[Cruuzie]

My gym doesn’t usually bother to set boulder problems just for me, but I guess I didn’t realise I had to provide my custom designed holds. This will definitely help me progress.

[robertstone]

What an blessing to live in this era where I can watch in depth insights from Adam, Stephano, and Emil back to back to back. So informative and inspiring

Good job on the climbing comp just now, my heart dropped when you slipped on the lead climb. But you did great. Keep your head up my friend

[Raynaputi]

That's the best explanation of warning up. I've always been confused about warming up. Thanks

[veselinkolev]

Adam, con mi hijo hemos empezado escalar gracias a ti. El tiene 7 años, yo 38 y queremos ser fuertes como tú!

[Kaygu_]

Super excited for this tips & tricks series!

[riderdie]

This is really interesting. I am now curious what an endurance training session would look like. I basically only have been trying max power climbing at the beginning of the session with a high volume session to end it. This has worked well as someone who’s only been climbing a year and a half, but now I can see I need to focus my training more to keep progressing. I will try incorporating sessions like this a few times during the week.

[IzzyIkigai]

I really appreciate the "english subtitile available" and also saying that they are. Not enough people care as much as :)

[balakingston]

extremely grateful for this Adam, thank you

[Rock_Appreciator]

Honestly, I thought I was a bit goofy for climbing randomly, stretching a lot, and just standing and feeling the rock and holds before every session. Kind of almost messing around to some degree vs. actually sending. Glad to see Adam does it too.

[aleksandratrzcionka]

I do appreciate you wearing a mike, so we can hear that you are actually working hard on those problems. You make everything look so easy it's good to know I'm not the only one making noices while climbing :)

[hahne]

"Everything up to 8a, I consider as a warm up" 😅

[naheedhassan]

This is golden and no better way to start the week! Thank you Adam!

[ivojonker]

Really good video, gives some perspective on questions I had but couldn't get answered! Hope you'll do more of these!

[zivotvkrosne]

Great! Thanks for this and see you in your crew!

[lob-Ross]

Great video! looking forward to the next one. Very educational, i will try adapting these tips to my bouldering sessions. Thanks alot Ondra and crew!
