Plan for a REALISTIC YEAR of Climbing Training | Philosophy of Training | Periodization

There is a BIG difference between exercising and training. Exercising is fine, but if you want to see progress as an athlete, training is what you are looking for. Don't confuse random exercise with training.

Proper training involves a plan with progressive overload, leading to new levels of strength and fitness over time. Periodization is what we use to plan and optimize that training.

In this video Steve discusses the types of periodization used in training for climbing, and explains how to put them to use.
