      He’s not that strong. My dad once pulled back together two tectonic plates with his bare hands. He said there was only 3mm crimps on either side to pull on, he didn’t even blow a pully.

    The Idea of Max to take energy from having been through very hard times is inspiring. Someone of Storror has recently made the same quote but the other way around. Doing hard stuff deliberately, will make you feel more prepared for the future, so you might take energy from that if the really hard times come...

    Please do more of these. They are wonderful and it's also cool to see how insanely powerful they are.
    I've always been so impressed by how Adam Onra often just enjoys climbing, even though so many eyes are on him. Him getting improving his speed climb record and just seeing him celebrate while being lowered had a big impact on me.

    What Jim said about associating your results with your self-worth really hit home for me as someone working in academia. It's one thing to take a different perspective to 'failures' but it helps immensely I think to realize why we put so much pressure on ourselves, and that part of it is whether you associatie succeeding with acceptance by your community. Really heartening and as always I feel bouldering lessons are life lessons❤

    Listening to those young athletes makes me so positive for the future! Being significantly older than them, I grew up surrounded by believe that the true strength comes from being thought. I took me years to learn about the other options. It's impressive to see them building their strength on vulnerability. I think it makes them not only better competitors but overall happier and better people.

    Hi Louis, I have bumped into you a couple of times at my home gyms (Vaux West and East) but been too shy to say hello since you were teaching. Regardless, I love your content and have learnt a lot about warm up exercised, projecting, climbing shoes etc. thank you so much! Love your videos))

    Comp climbers don't get the credit they deserve. They have to be so strong mentally; always perform at their best even when they feel their worst, suffer from jet-lag, or conditions are otherwise not ideal; be proficient at all climbing styles; and if they have ambition for the last or this upcoming Olympics, be proficient at multiple disciplines.

      @alexeymalafeev6167 I think this is where their elite mindset comes into play - it can only be a positive and motivational thing for them. They’ve both seen Toby work through the youth team and into the position he’s in now - not only will they be happy for his success but also use this as fuel to work harder and be better!!
