The Power Company Climbing Podcast

In this episode of the Power Company Climbing Podcast, Kris Hampton and Nate Drolet discuss training for sport climbing outdoors, emphasizing the importance of outdoor climbing volume and dispelling the notion of "junk miles" in that context. They advocate for strategic training plans that incorporate both performance and fitness work, focusing on building mental and physical endurance by climbing on routes, adjusting difficulty as needed, and not being afraid to climb when fatigued. They also touch on the value of efficient climbing techniques, logistical planning, and incorporating bouldering into a sport climbing training regimen.
