Any tips? I was at the fair doing on of the rigged ones but I’ve never don’t rockclimbing so I did it and I got halfway up and nothing was hurting and I had sore muscles that day from sports but basically they flipped the rocks so you wouldn’t have grip at all how would I grip onto that? I just gave up though because I’ve never fell from a harness so I was scared to slip but I just let go
maybe add "basic tip" but also hanging without using your muscles can be very damaging for tendon and ligament if u do it often and on non-resting spot
I guess you should be slightly curved in your elbows a trying to have wings locked as well, so it makes your shoulders more stable. But in the same time minimazing the preassure on your forearm, bicep etc.
While I agree with 2 (keep hips in) for a big power move pushing up the wall, it works better to bring your hips out, then when you push up, the curve of your hips moves towards the wall and not away 👍
@@roapcoaching917 Yeah for sure! Just as a novice I wanted to make that point because I felt it was something quite important to the tip. Other novices might hinder themselves trying to keep hips in always.
These are great tips, generally intermediate tips. But can be elastic and changed given the climb and situation. Good tips to use and grow upon over time.
@@roapcoaching917 don't worry, that's why we have great teacher and guides in this world. And your one of them, with people to remind of us of our foundations and what made us able to get this far. We'll be able to continue even farther thanks to them.
@@thisscreensucks I mean it as great tips for intermediates as well, but for them it becomes a base and something we grow off of. Just as she said here in the comment section. Even higher grade climbers make these mistakes. Having beginners tips once in a while doesn't hurt ones progress.
What brand shoes do you have on? I wear barefoot shoes most of the time so I find the pointed toe of moat climbing shoes to be very uncomfortable. Your shoes are blunter with a wider toe box though. What brabd are they?
Great question. Mobility. Start training more resistance (weights) through full range of motion. Frog stretches, sumo squats, Cossack squats are all great. And…get in lots of practice!
Your center of gravity is away from the wall, so more weight through your arms and fingers (weakest points) and you will burn unnecessary energy - even on easier climbs.
I find myself limited to my grip strength and finger muscles. A lifetime of atrophied muscles has really hampered my progress. Even if I do these techniques correctly, I can feel my fingers giving out, so I use my biceps to compensate and end up making a diamond shape with my arms on overhang walls. Of course I wear out my arms quickly and fall off or give up. I'm much better on slab walls where I can use balance to get me up the wall.
Videos coming very soon on movement technique and drill work to help maximize your climbing. But if you've analyzed that your fingers are weak, make sure that you work on these 2-3 x a week to help. Be progressive, but address this weakness.
Bit of both. Elite climbers put their bodies through a lot of hard training - which obviously helps develop muscles. But also, her genes and mesomorph body-type means she puts on muscles easily.
Keep trying. Focus on pushing and feeling through your toes. The more pressure you can apply through your toes the easier it becomes. If you drop your heels too much, your bum will fall away more easily.
your left foot rotated when moving up. Shouldn't foot placement be in the position you intend to want it to be when pushing up the rock to reach the next hold. Second tip needs to be introduced with "when the rock is overhanging " because on a slab if my hips are in it will reduce my shoes contact patch and my feet will peel off the rock.
Foot rotation happens after placement. Placement needs to be precise, but allow for pivoting. See our video on pressure and pivoting. You drive from a position of power and need to harness that power getting hips as close to the wall. With slabs, yes, you need neutral hips and more ankle flexion
If you notice, I will place with a low heel and then when driving, these will lift. Typically, your flagging/supporting leg will have a lower heel as it is pushing on a straighter leg.
Yes it is to answer your question but this wall is at a steep angle. You must pull through your hands until your heels aren't low anymore and at the same time bring your hips in as she said hth :)
@@brianrivera9237 Ty! :) I usually stand on my toes right away even on walls like this but maybe that's a difference in style or maybe I'm doing it wrong. Can't wait to try this method next time at the gym!
tip number 4: be as strong as Alex Puccio
;)
Just use more technique if you're not strong enough.
Tip 5 be a total beast
Great!
Thank you Pietro!
Tip 4: be insanely jacked
Climbing is a good workout
Tip 4: immerse yourself in bouldering. Tip 5: see tip 4.
8climbing - this certainly helps
Tip 1, grow those guns
And there's me: "where the heck I'm supposed to put my feet on this thing"
Watch out video on precision and accuracy
Mommy? Sorry, mommy? Sorry, mommy?
😂
She's a legend! Thanks for the tips.
Happy to help!
Is it just me who sees her as both really nice and really scary?? Regardless, thanks for the tips, they re always good to keep in mind :)
Haha - she can be scary! But 99% of the time, she's really nice! lol
Wow, this girl is the Mayor of Ripped-City.
She be strooong

I.e. the holds were pointing upside down? These are called underclings and require higher feet so your arms are straight down.
she is jacked
Tip 4: get bigger biceps
Haha
Great tips !
*P.S. LOOK AT THOSE ARMS*
Haha! Thank you! 💪

These 3 tips are exact same (and only) tips I got when I started climbing.
Good tips!!
Bruh she’s built like a tank 💪
Strong
TOTALLY flexing those guns! Nice…
;)
Great tips I wish I knew when I started. The hips thing was huge
Thanks Stephen! We can always revisit these too as when we get stronger, we also revert back a little too.
@@roapcoaching917 that’s for sure. I’m fighting my old habits right now
I'm surprised. That's similar fighting or martial art advice. Especially when they talk about structure. Climbing will by next challenge. Thanks!
Yes!! My husband did martial arts for 15 years before climbing! Definitely try it! Thanks for watching
Her muscles are incredible- just unbelievably beautiful that humans can do this to their bodies. I NEED TO GET BACK ON WORKING OUT
Thank you
Her arms are amazing
Thank you
I’m about to start rock climbing so I can take my upper body to the next level 🔥
It will genuinely happen if you climb a few times a week!
lady could take flight with those lats

Great tips for beginners. How about three tips for experienced climbers.
Great suggestion!
She has better shoulders then me
Haha, she gets that a lot!!!
While I agree with 2 (keep hips in) for a big power move pushing up the wall, it works better to bring your hips out, then when you push up, the curve of your hips moves towards the wall and not away 👍
For sure, but also with most moves. People rely far too much on their arms. Let’s and hips should be involved with almost every move.
@@roapcoaching917 Yeah for sure! Just as a novice I wanted to make that point because I felt it was something quite important to the tip. Other novices might hinder themselves trying to keep hips in always.
Tip 5: be insanely hot
😌
this song got me hyped. I am now #1 Boulderer!!
Haha good stuff
Thank you, Alex!😊
My pleasure
Happy climbing ❤n safe landings ❤
🙏
These are great tips, generally intermediate tips. But can be elastic and changed given the climb and situation. Good tips to use and grow upon over time.
These are more (great) begginer tips imo!
True, but we do see V11 and 5.13 climbers making these too. You'd be surprised how many climbers make basic errors and overly rely on strength.
@@roapcoaching917 don't worry, that's why we have great teacher and guides in this world. And your one of them, with people to remind of us of our foundations and what made us able to get this far. We'll be able to continue even farther thanks to them.
Using toes and straight arms are literally the first tips anyone gives.

Simple, straight to the point
Thank you
Great, that’s what we wanted, thank you

I feel like that stoner dude from Wayne's World after watching Garth Algar perform a ridiculous drum solo.
😂
What brand shoes do you have on? I wear barefoot shoes most of the time so I find the pointed toe of moat climbing shoes to be very uncomfortable. Your shoes are blunter with a wider toe box though. What brabd are they?
Theee are Scarpa VSRs. Still have a point, but more symmetrical
I find it hard to keep hips as close to wall as possible yet also climbing with straight arms. Do you advice?
Great question. Mobility. Start training more resistance (weights) through full range of motion. Frog stretches, sumo squats, Cossack squats are all great. And…get in lots of practice!
Tip 4 get extremely jacked.
Hard work and the benefits of being a mesomorph with good genetics :)
@SheepyNubs just because she has more muscle than you doesn't mean she takes PEDs
@SheepyNubs Im 14 and just started calisthenics and rock climbing. She looks natural and there is no reason for Anabolics in that sport...
@SheepyNubs bro what the hell are u saying u dont even have proof of that.
And also do you do rock climbing??
@@plumbirb8444 I know it takes years to get good at calisthenics and rock climbing
More tips please Alex! I m thinking of getting into this. X
More tips coming soon. We've just been ill, so focusing on recovery, but more coming your way very soon.
Difficult making new climbers understand climb on extended arms. Takes a session or two for it to make sense to most of them...
Or more! Complex subject which we’ll be filming soon
Tip 4: listen to tip 1,2,3 and keep practicing 🎉
Haha!! Yes!!!
what's the difference if you dont put your hips close and climbing with bent arms
Your center of gravity is away from the wall, so more weight through your arms and fingers (weakest points) and you will burn unnecessary energy - even on easier climbs.
Her forearms, calves and lats 👀
For old dudes like me, tip 3 has the added benefit of not making the elbows feel like they’re exploding after a climb.
So crucial! Those elbows are sensitive little things! Thanks for watching

Lats for dayz
Awesome tips, thank you girl! Love your shape 💪💪
🙏 thank you 🙏 😊
She has amazing arms
Body goals. 😮
Thanks
Woah, she is so buff. Is that standard for ladies or is it her genes?
Bit of both. Elite climbers put their bodies through a lot of hard training - which obviously helps develop muscles. But also, her genes and mesomorph body-type means she puts on muscles easily.
Tip4: watch ROAP videos
Ahhh, thank you! We appreciate it (you)!
Love it !!!❤❤❤ gonna use these tips right now 🎉😂😂
Awesome!!! Let us know how it goes!
Tip number 4: don’t be fat
Haha, it helps
Those arms and delts😍😍
Haha! Thanks
Keeping my hips close to the wall has been a huge struggle for me . I don’t even know why 😭I just start hanging all over and drop
Keep trying. Focus on pushing and feeling through your toes. The more pressure you can apply through your toes the easier it becomes. If you drop your heels too much, your bum will fall away more easily.
@@roapcoaching917 that’s actually super helpful! Going later and I’ll try that ! :) I also start a class next week so I’m sure that will helps tons !
Good luck and keep us posted
Thank you needed that
Thanks for watching - glad it helped!

Hi, I noticed your heel was kind of low relative to the toes. Isn't it easier to keep hips closer to the wall if you're heels are high?
