Yeah!!! We miss you guys! Thanks for all of your help with this one - your lens/camera set-up is so good. The changes between the footage is so obvious. Yes, GULP, we'll see what happens in a couple of weeks!!!
So good to see you back in comp mode Alex! Route climbing is such a brutal way to sharpen the mindset. After having such a hard time with that clip and still finish the climb, that requires so much will power and mental strength to hold on and keep going, so impressive! Looking forward to watching you climbing in comp, you'll definitely do great!!
Awww, thank you! I know, I thought I was a gonner! But I tried to relax my breathing and my mind once I made the clip. Looking forward to/nervous about the comp, but it will be fun! Thanks for watching!
Thank you for the sub and the watch!! I'd been Kilter boarding with a client in the morning, so was pretty warm. I rested for about an hour or so, so warmed up again on a 12b. If stone cold (after hangboarding etc), I'd prob jump on an 11d/12a.
I boulder for about a year now and I have toproped before but it has been years ago. Yesterday I went toproping and although the individual moves were easy, I was so so so pumped on the harder routes each time near the end. This reminds me of that haha.
🗽Power endurance... is different from bouldering. You always have to know exactely what to do and how to do efficient. Pink one very well done Alex! 👍 .
Yep, we have many aspects to energy systems: aerobic vs anaerobic, capacity vs power. Most people struggle with aerobic power (horrendously pumped) on sustained (but not overly hard) moves, compared to losing power and the ability to pull (anaerobic capacity).
Impressive stuff Alex - so cool to see your lead process in action & excited to hear about your progression through the comp. 🎉

Thank You, Alex! This will definitly help me fight my own fears! You’re great woman!!!
Excellent, glad to hear it! I still get scared and I still take from time to time. Just try to address it at your own pace!

Really loved. It's really nice to watch this athlete level facing some daily struggles and doing just fine :D Thanks for the content
Thanks for watching, glad you enjoyed it. Everyone goes through these struggles, it’s just rarely shown!
Love the effort and attitude to get the routes done! Looks a lot like how some of my finishes are only on 5.10c-d routes. Alex is a machine!
Haha, thank you!! I certainly didn’t feel that way, so appreciate it! And thanks for watching!
I loved the tips you gave throughout the video, great stuff! :D
Excellent! So glad you found it useful. Thanks for watching!
Love to see you lead climbing. Nice change from bouldering. Well done!
Thank you! It’s something I typically do 1-2 x a week, but have neglected it recently.
Thanks for watching
LOVE THIS!!!! Super inspirational on what to do when you struggle on the wall.
Awwww, thank you so much!
For the editor: I don't mind an even longer video, the cuts during climbs seem a bit jarring and I want to see the full climb!
Appreciate the feedback. We were worried it would be “too” long! But good to know
@@roapcoaching917 Of course, thanks for the great content!
The content is so good. The more the better!
Thank you so much!!
Thank you!!
No expectations, just have fun. Great outlook. Good luck with it, so good to see you climb and get your insights and analysis. Thanks for posting.
Thank you so much, and thanks for watching!!!
I warm up on 8s or 9’s. That’s impressive warming up on a 12- I subbed to your channel.

Nice to see the rests and clipping positions in this! People normally edit it out which drives me mad.
Yeah, we edited a little, worried people would get bored, but the consensus was to keep all of the footage. Thanks for watching
Great video! Just recently got back into rope climbing and boy is it different from all the bouldering that I've been doing
Yup!! The forearms are dead!!! Good luck and thanks for watching!

Haha, exactly!! Enjoy getting the fitness and thanks for watching
Great content, Alex put a lot of thoughts out regarding her climb on this mini comp series.
Thank you! I enjoyed sharing my thoughts in a more organic, less structured way. Thanks for watching!
Movement in Baker it looks. I love the roof section on the sport there.
Really?! It scares me! 😆 the extended draws are always so hard to clip! Thanks for watching!

"i cant feel it!" :D your reaction when beirg lowered was relatable. i usually get the clawwww lol
Hahaha! Totally! The claw!! Oh, my god, I think I'm still pumped!!!! haha - thanks for watching!
The muscles! Your back looks like a Greek statue!
Haha, thank you!
Real-life climbing!
Real-life indeed!!
That’s me on a 5.9 😂
💪✌️
How tall are your walls?
These are 18m/60ft
"I'm doing the climbing of my own free will", blink twice if you're in trouble.....
Hahaha
Time to go to Rifle? Bad Girls Club is just sitting there waiting.
Yes!!! I know, I need to get on more routes outside! The big goal would be first round, first minute!!!
@@roapcoaching917 Anything in Margalef or a Sharma route would be amazing. Now that you bring it up I'd love to climb in Europe
It's amazing!
@@roapcoaching917 Every time I see pictures of Ceuse I try and plan out how to go there. But in the meantime, it's just the Red and Japan for me.
Good options to have!!
