the rock climber's exercise guide: The Rock Warrior's Way Arno Ilgner, 2006 Mental training is scarcely covered in the climbing literature, yet it is as important to performance as strength, flexibility, and technique. In his unique approach to mental training, Arno Ilgner draws essential elements from the rich warrior literature, as well as from sports psychology, and combines these with his extensive climbing experience to create The Rock Warrior?s Way.Here is a comprehensive program for learning how to focus your mental resources during a challenging climb. It includes step-by-step guidance on motivation analysis, information gathering, risk assessment, mental focus, and deliberate transition into action.Poor use of attention creates fear, which can manifest itself as anything from performance anxiety to sheer terror. By using attention more purposefully we can understand how fear is created, deal with it effectively, and free ourselves to get back in touch with a far more powerful motivating force: our love of climbing. We can then create the kind of unbending intention that leads to outstanding performance. The Rock Warrior?s Way is a revolutionary program for climbers who want to improve both their performance and their enjoyment of climbing. |

The only master class in print, Extreme Alpinism delivers an expert dose of reality and practical techniques for advanced climbers.

the rock climber's exercise guide: On the Nose Hans Florine, Jayme Moye, 2016-09-01 Hans Florine embodies the genius of and—collaborative and competitive, fast and safe, audacious and disciplined, visionary and quantitative. The themes that run through Florine's 101 ascents of Yosemite's most iconic route can benefit people who will never climb a rock, indeed anyone inspired by the idea of a passionate, lifelong quest of any type. —Jim Collins, author of Good to Great Hans Florine is a big-wall climbing legend in his own time. He holds the speed record on the Nose route of El Capitan, a 3,000-foot granite cliff in Yosemite Valley that’s considered the Everest of the rock-climbing world. Ascending the Nose takes most climbers anywhere from 12 to 96 hours. Florine, along with climbing partner Alex Honnold, does it in an astounding 2.5 hours. But Florine’s story is not one of super-human athletic prowess; it’s one of persistence and dogged determination. In 30 years of climbing, he's ascended the Nose a mind-blowing, death-defying 100 times, more than anyone else ever has, and most likely ever will. In On the Nose, Florine describes the most dangerous, pivotal, and inspirational of those climbs, providing a rare look inside the adrenaline-charged world of competitive climbing in Yosemite Valley. He tells of his very first attempt on the Nose, which ended in failure after 14 hours, his friendships (and rivalries) with climbing’s most colorful personalities, and his battle with Dean Potter to secure the definitive speed record on the Nose—an endeavor that’s been called the wildest competition known to man. Perhaps most interestingly, Florine attempts to answer the question why. Why would anyone undertake one of the greatest adventure epics on earth 100 times? His answers provide unique insights on how to live a satisfying life, how to achieve big goals, and how an otherwise ordinary guy can become a rock star. |

Through interviews with some of North America’s most notable climbers the book undertakes a quest to find the soul of climbing— asking what compels men and women to dedicate their lives to the challenges and deprivations of living in a vertical world? What are the sacrifices and what are the rewards? And most importantly, can the lessons learned on cliff faces, frozen waterfalls, and alpine peaks— lessons of respect, discipline, commitment, humility and simplicity—be brought home and used to benefit society as a whole? |

the rock climber's exercise guide: Logical Progression Steve Bechtel, 2020 Training for climbing can be fun, but sticking to a schedule can be desperately hard. Many climbers have seen the value of a carefully planned out, periodized training program. Clearly, such programs work, but many of us can't stick to such a rigid schedule. What if there were a better way? What if there were a more flexible way of planning that provided the same great results? And what if such a program allowed you to maintain high levels of climbing performance much longer than you could on a traditional program? For the climber that has limited time to train, there may be no better program than the nonlinear plans laid out in Logical Progression. For anyone who wants to get fit and stay fit for long trips and redpoint seasons, the programs outlined in this book can give you a great advantage. For the second edition, we have added an entire new section on Block Programming, essentially a hybrid between nonlinear and traditional periodization models. With all new session templates and exercise suggestions, this book will help you get a handle on all the variables that training for climbing will throw at you. Based on solid science and tested by hundreds of climbers, the programs in Logical Progression are a simple and very effective way of organizing your training, and making sure that progress keeps coming.--Page 4 of cover. |

the rock climber's exercise guide: Climb Strong: 100 Training Tips Steve Bechtel, 2017-07-31 This book was originally published in 2013 as an ebook on the Climb Strong site. I added it to the book Strength as an appendix, under the name of Successful Sessions: 34 Training Tips for Successful Rock Climbing. I had originally written it as ten tips, then fixed on twenty five. By the time I'd finished, I stopped at the nice, round number of 34.Since that time, my learning and communicating with more accomplished coaches and climbers has increased substantially. In fact, there are many days that I do little at my normal job (running the gym), and instead spend hours communicating with climbers. This has been a hard transition, made easier by the efforts of my wife, Ellen, as well as Charlie Manganiello, Shelby Duncan, Kevin Wallingford, and Emily Tilden, who keep Elemental running and improving. I am pleased to admit that I am now the worst coach at the gym.When I looked at the updated list in the fall of 2015, I saw that we had collected well over a hundred tips, from one-line reminders to full-life plans. Over the winter of 2016/17, we whittled the tips down to exactly 100, and tried to keep them short and to the point. This is not so much a book to read in one sitting, but rather one to take in one or two tips at a time.This book is free to download with a paid membership to our site. |

Included in the book are: Theory, Periodized and Non-Linear Style Training, Session Planning, Exercises Descriptions, Sample Logsheets, and Articles written by the author.About the Author:I have been climbing for ten years and training for over half of that. Research, persistence, and trial and error has helped me refine my training process over the years; I have gone from projecting v4 to sending my first v13 this year. At the same time, I have had the opportunity to climb all over the world, work as a guide, and coach kids climbing teams. A teacher by trade, I also have helped many of my friends achieve their goals by designing plans for them.I specialize in working with those looking to try training for the first time, though I have helped experienced climbers as well. My theory, when it comes to training, can be summed up as following: discipline and work. There really is no substitute for dedication. Be useful is my main rule for life, and I look forward to helping you! |
