Dave is my favorite climber for sure. Such amazing perspectives and such a kind guy. My wife once wrote him when I had a really bad elbow injury and asked him to cheer me up and he wrote me a personal email. Such a kind and empathetic approach to life.
That's amazing! Somehow I'm not surprised. That guy does so much and yet always seems to have time for others.
Macleod is so grounded and humble. it's a joy to listen to him talk for hours
Dave is an absolute gem. He had given me so much motivation and perspective.
The most influential and advanced climber to not be considered a traditional pro. I would never climb trad or ice, but Dave is just so far under the radar of ppl outside the climbing scene, it is almost criminal.
Mimic and gestic add so much! I wish we could have all podcasts as videos (no matter the picture quality). Just like Lex Fridman :)
I have read this book once a year since I started climbing, for 3 times total now
like a lot of climbers around our age, dave macleod & eric horst's books gave some organization to the hodge podge of random advice you'd internalize from local crushers at the crag and gym. while horst is quick to dive into the tables and protocols, i think what attracted me most to dave is both his background in injuries through his 20s (same here), his depth of thought, and appetite for learning. other people have mentioned here, but he's also got a soothing voice to boot and i could listen to him on podcast or video going back and forth on his approach to fear, trying hard, nutrition, training, injury, etc etc.
i'm on a climbing chat and we call him Papa Dave.
Fixed answers are rare in climbing. Tuning in to the holds and oneself are high on the list. The rock is the ultimate teacher.
I sure wish I was one of these people with super strong finger strength/weight and just needed to get over their fear of falling! Its tough starting a sport like this in your late 40s. Pretty much no matter what you do, there just isnt much improvement to be had between spells of injuries. People who have been climbing since they were children will just never understand. At least I can watch my daughter and cheer her on.
Check out Neil Gresham and Dave on training and injuries. You need to actively prevent them.
@@leoingson The “unfair” thing is that climbers who’ve started early don’t seem to have to worry about it. And some people just seem to be lucky. We all know that guy at the local climbing gym who seems to be climbing hard each and every day, doesn’t warm up, doesn’t do any complementary exercises, and yet he (or she) still doesn’t suffer any injuries.
@@Mike-oz4cv Yeah. F*ck that guy ;)
@@Mike-oz4cv You forgot the "yet" at the end there ;) Younger people also regenerate faster, so there's one injury prevention built in already.
They probably cycled there, have a better diet than you, they may have a better instinct of survival than you too. Might seem like
Luck to the unobservant
climbing !
Dave is a legend, 9/10 climbers was ground breaking for me I read it years and years ago and recently went for a reread and realised how much of my climbing today was influenced by the first read through. That and Neil Gresham’s Masterclass vidoes helped become a much better and efficient climber.
Both are totally underrated, maybe especially in the US. I love Neils Masterclass, it's the only useful material on broad technique, I know of.
I always recommend Neil's masterclass vids, even to intermediate climbers. it's so good! Should read the book sounds good
My biggest problem is going on automatic pilot when I climb, I just don't know or remember what I do and did, I just do it 😁 very annoying problem
The biggest problem I see for many climbers, even TOP climbers, is not using perfect technique on east terrain. This is especially true of footwork and whole-body ergonomics. Really strong climbers tend to be sloppy on top-outs in particular. Using the BEST POSSIBLE TECHNIQUE on easier ground makes it come automatically when working hard! 🙏
So excited for these RUclips videos!
Me too!
Overgripping is one of the biggest faults I see in myself and others.
It Kills your endurance and pumps you out so quickly...
I can listen to Dave talk climbing all day. David Attenborough vibes!
