Episode 6: To Run or Not To Run with Steve Bechtel

steve episode 6

In Episode 6, we sit down with listener favorite Steve Bechtel at his gym in Lander, Wyoming, and talk about the question everyone always seems to be asking, "Will running help my climbing?"

We delve into running as both a weight loss tool and as aerobic training for climbing, whether or not you should be running, and if "CrossFit" is even worth it.
