Ep. 16: Crimposium

Cynthia and Morgan discuss their divergent training philosophies, or the principles they apply as they try to improve and progress in climbing.  Professor Cynthia, channeling FDR, explains the Four Tenets that she employs to get better at climbing.  Morgan counters with a hedonistic, “anti-training” training philosophy.  Along the way, the gals discuss the role of motivation in devising a training plan, the benefits of training strengths versus weaknesses, what it means to be a “good climber,” and what training advice they would give each other.  Can it be that their philosophies are actually not so different after all?  Tune in and hunker down for some Deep Thoughts about climbing.

Listener Question:  What is the definition of a good climber?  What is your training philosophy?
