All roads (or rabbit holes) lead back to effort. On and off the wall, in preparation, practice, and performance – all the time.

Become a better boulderer by learning to avoid these three common mistakes that many beginners are making.

How do you know what a weakness is? Is it just what we think we’re bad at? Based on what?
