billcoe Posted November 2, 2005 Share Posted November 2, 2005 The truth for me: Climbing more. Working less. Period. Which I currently seem to have reversed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lepton Posted November 2, 2005 Share Posted November 2, 2005 Two things accelerated my improvement. The first was having the opportunity to watch a good climber lead a hard route early in my career. What impressed me most was the tenacity that climber displayed, resting in a dubious position and working out the crux well above protection for over 30 minutes. The second thing that really helped me understand that I could do harder climbs was to change my boulder training from doing laps on routes I had wired, to really concentrating my sessions on working on a problem until I could do it. As I increased the difficulty of boulder problems I worked on I was soon able to include harder problems in my warm ups, and expand my repetoire of moves.
