Board Meetings | How to Tell if Your Training Worked

Even though they are the most objective method, metrics aren’t usually the best way to tell if your training actually worked. That is, if the point of the training is to climb better. Are you measuring the right things? What if the thing you are measuring doesn’t contribute to performance at all?

Are grades a better way to measure the efficacy of your training? Not always. We all know that grades are ridiculously subjective. Are you searching out the “easy-for-the-grade” climbs? Are you traveling to new rock in a new area?

It all matters.

In this patron’s only Board Meeting, Nate and Kris discuss the do’s and don’ts of deciding if your training is working. For as little as $3, you can get access to at least two bonus episodes each month. Click below to learn more.

Kris Hampton

A climber since 1994, Kris was a traddie for 12 years before he discovered the gymnastic movement inherent in sport climbing and bouldering.  Through dedicated training and practice, he eventually built to ascents of 5.14 and V11. 

Kris started Power Company Climbing in 2006 as a place to share training info with his friends, and still specializes in working with full time "regular" folks.  He's always available for coaching sessions and training workshops.
