In this episode, Kris talks with coach Kyle O'Meara and alumni Sylvie Cressman about their time at The Climbing Academy, and what they learned about the importance of being both selfish and selfless.   Read the rest on the blog!

In todays training landscape, those theories are sometimes entirely untested - and haven't even had time to become tried and true.

    TAPED TIPS | Is Working Weaknesses Holding Climbers Back?

    From the very beginning of trying to improve at climbing, we’re told one thing: Work on your weaknesses. I’ve probably said this a million times myself.
