Let me know if you want to see my full conversation with Tom about nutrition and supplements. I've got the recording and can post it if anyone wants to go more in depth on the topic!
Yes please!! Nutrition can be really confusing, and I’d love to learn more. Great vid, congrats on the send!
i wanna really curious about the mindset and breathing technique, would love to know if there's anything i could try in my training :) thanks for sharing this experience! enjoy your trip!
It would definitely be interesting! It seems however, that Tom was more focused on a specific diet for just the 4 weeks prior to the trip. Did he also talk about a more general diet for you to follow after the trip?
PLEASE SHARE
Tom and Louis?! Jesus, no wonder you improved - of course, only because you put in the hard work, but that's two of the best guy's you can have in your corner giving advice
for your next video you should free climb el capitan
-solo
Rafael Martinez I mean he can’t just free solo it but he can free climb it there two different thing
Its free solo
@@lisacapra4468 free climbing is also a thing lmao
@@chickennugger6797 mate i saw the movie free solo 1 time, so its free solo hmmkay?
Great work man! Looking forward to see how it goes!
so how was the trip?
Epic! You can check it out- the video is called 'Climb V7 In A Month'
Awesome video! Your jaw can probably cut through glass.
I wish i could just call louis up and be like yo dog hook me up with some training schedule. lol , im a little jealous
i think you can if you pay him
@@AndrewPseudonym yea I'm sure you could hire him as a coach. I was just kidding because they are friends.
@Matthew Aguirre What does that have to do with having someone like him as a resource? Paying someone for their time / expertise just shows common human decency.
He's got a program that cost about 29 bucks a month I think.. includes zoom calls once a week
Very realistic progress when diet is on point!! Love this
Really good content, would love to hear more about that talking of the guy with the muscle activation!
As mentioned above will be doing a video about all this soon, and if you are in the UK some workshops.
@@usefulcoach Was the video you mentioned created? Would also LOVE to see a video on that
@@alexanderfarooq8602 hey, nope never did but we plan to do something around the topic before the end of year. However it's all been held back because of COVID
@@usefulcoach sounds cool, very much looking forward to it. In the meantime, for a curious and impatient guy, are there any good reading references covering the topic (off the top of your head)? I’ve been scouring the web, but so far come short :/
@@alexanderfarooq8602 ping me an email and I can take you through a remote session. Check my site for the address
12:19 When you need to look hyped for the video, but its hours after you sent the problem so you do a little hollywood production next to your stairs
Would love more info about the mindset that unlocked extra strength for you
same
watch naruto
I will be doing a video about all this soon, and if you are in the UK some workshops. Head over to my website useful.coach and subscribe to the Newsletter to be notified.
Watch Eric Bugenhagen
@@usefulcoach Checked out your videos, Tom, I found "stop using your abs to fix your posture" very helpful! Can't wait for the video about mindset and muscle activation!
one day I was practicing v5's and decided to just send a v7 and got it 3rd try, I didn't think I was ready but something I learned about climbing is to just try hard things cause sometimes you stick or land moves you didn't think you were capable of, and the only way to find out if you are capable of it, is it to try. If you so happen to do a level dont shift your focus, master every level. Flash every level and nearly every climb of what you are able to do before you move on, but try and least 1-2 hard climbs but only give it a few trys, thats my best tips.
Would definitely love a whole video on the muscle activation and mindset topic - it seems pretty crazy!
Second this!
What a great video. I felt your joy with you when you sent the V7. That's what's so wonderful about climbing, no matter your level you intrinsically understand everyone's feelings of success and failure it makes it so social even though it's very much an individual battle with yourself and the problems.
I want to know what got said to you before you managed 2 muscle ups! Amazing
This was really motivating, keep it up!
you look like you chew gum all day
That's some powerful storytelling you've developed here! I felt positively invested in your success. Here's to developing your craft, in both film and climb 🤜🤛
We definitely want to know more in depth the steps and programs mentioned in the video so we can also learn and improve ourselves.
*Does one mock El Capitan boulder problem in gym*
*decides to skip v7 outside and free solo El Capital instead*
Would DEFINITLY love a video about mindset and breathing!
Can you post your training program? thanks a lot!
There is no balance intermittent fasting does not work well with high intensity training . Fasting has very little science behind it in performance enhancing.
If if I could press ''loved this video'' I would!!
You shouldn't photo shop yourself you literally posted the same photo on both sides.
Realistically if you worked that v7 for a few sessions you could have done it a month earlier, aka you were already climbing v7. Not to be a downer but you really can't make any substantial gains in a month and definitely not 2 v-grades, videos like this will make noobs get discouraged when they can make 2 v grade jumps monthly.
I've been climbing since Feb and I'm up to V4s and testing the water on a few V5s. So getting gains in a month is rather easy.
@@skallymanga7812 Lol you won't be saying that after a few more grades. Law of diminishing returns.
@@skallymanga7812 : It gets harder the higher you get. V0 to V1 is hardly noticable. V7 to V8 is a different world. I can't imagine what it is above that.
@@skallymanga7812 Most gyms are extremely soft grade wise especially for noob grades. They make them super soft so people wont get discouraged when they arent making the progress they think they should be.
Even the moonboard grades are are pretty soft for the climbs of each grades with the most ascents. If you think you can make jumps like this guy put some videos up in a month from now when you are climbing the moonboard V7's.
That was my other problem with this video. The guy tries moonboard problems then 4 weeks later does some random vert problem. Why didn't he go back to the moonboard? That would probably be a better measure.
I hate the idea of changing my diet but I guess I'll need to
Is the mindset & focus day in your "I climb like a pro climber 6 month" plan kind of like the session with tom put into practice, and if so what does a typical session look like? Is there any video footage of what tom thought you, we could watch for free or do I have to book a zoom-call with tom to get that sort of jedi-powers?
Head to my site, signup via the newsletter link, as I have something coming out by the end of the year
Really interesting video, would love to see more videos about nutrition and breathing / activation strategies! Any tips on increasing grip strength and grip technique?
Thks for the motivation. We would love to know more about 8:26 the mindset, posture breathing and muscle activation please
10:23 You hit that top hold so hard there was a little explosion
Am I able to find the workout routine that you followed pretty please ? 🙄
man, that's a wide jaw, I coudn't focus on the video
Congrats!!! That's great. And well-made video, thank you for sharing.
For anyone else out there curious about muscle activation, it seems like one of the core principles is that instead of stretching your tight muscles, you should focus on strengthen the opposing muscles. I ran into this once when I had tight calf muscles, and it was recommended that I do toe raises. It worked miracles!
Wow a physical transformation thumbnail that doesn't exploit lighting and flexing and posing? There is still hope on youtube
Yes it does, the contrast is more on the right, he's flexing in the right, and most likely rounded generously the measurements to his benefit to achieve maximum fat loss percentage. Not as exaggerated as most people do, but it's still exaggerating.
Awesome video and results. I am also trying to progress in bouldering, since I am plateauing for a long time (on a lot easier grades). I am trying to loose weight, build up strength and technique and this a great inspiration for me to achieve my goal. Thank you for that and go crush some v7s on your trip!
go play RA
Depending on the grade you should practice technique also
Man, I wish there were like 20 more of these motivation videos I could just binge watch
great v7 to send too!! I wish they set that one up at my gym
Loving these vids, Andrew. Started climbing in Feb and this is some inspiring stuff, makes me want to try the same.
How long have you been climbing?
Over 10 years. I've had some injuries along the way and life took me away from climbing for some periods, but I'm not a beginner. I have a solid base of technique and tendon finger strength, so if we look at my transformation in relative grade terms, then I improved by a grade or two over the month.
@@AndrewMacFarlane Do you think you became a V7 climber, or you managed to climb a V7 boulder? The latter is still great achievement (I dont think I have yet) but there is a difference between the two.
Jeez your jaw is crazy
Could you publish the plan Louis gave you?
yea would be nice to have more info on the training plan
That would be disrespectful to Louis. You should contact Louis if you're interested. It's his work.
@@Brewsto What's your problem? They work together quite often I don't see a reason why it would be disrespectful to Louis.
@@marianokal8767 You literally want to get the training plan for free from a client of the one who made t. You should ask the guy that made the training plan about it instead because it's his work.
@@Brewsto I'm asking, I'm not forcing him to do anything and I just asked on multiple platforms so I get an answer and Louis already responded to me so calm down.
and then you get outside and realize the skin on your fingers can't handle climbing all day on actual rock
eric g gotta start somewhere
this was a great inspiration, even though I'm a beginner I now know that it takes good practice and preparation and then you can achieve whatever you want!! american dream moments yassss
i usually dont comment on vids but damn this one was amazing.. like a mini little movie. An Average Joes free solo if u will hah. when u did that muscle up i was cheering hahaha. then u topped the v6 and that puff of chalk was kick ass! i thought it mightve been an added effect... finally that v7!!! epic!
Just to give some free advice coming from men’s physyique world over to climbing I’d advice not doing that low carb keep your carbs high that’s your energy you can drop your fats instead and just clean up your diet and you’ll lose that excess body fat anyway you can fast if that’s your style but if that’s not you eat clean bro’s
Lol that thumbnail is bullshit. You went from pushing out you're stomach to flexing your abs. Good job. You gained no muscle tone.
Sorry to say this but you absolutely did not lose 6% bodyfat because if you did that would mean you gained 1,8kg in muscle mass, which for 4 weeks is completely insane.
Also, try Eucommia Bark for tendons. I like it with black tea or as a tea with hot water and honey.
Dude, your masseter muscles are huge.
When you mew for 2 years...
losing that much body fat makes a big difference in strength to weight for climbing.
I know one MacFarlane and he is my favorite anthropologist :D
How much did all of this cost u?
This soundtrack makes it sound like you’re ready to dock to a space station falling out of orbit
I really hope theres a more in depth video of what Louis told you to do coming. I can send V5 and I really feel like I am stronger than some climbers above my level. A video about the technique excercises would be appreciated deeply.
Good work man. Although..jumping straight into a strength & power program during a calorie deficit phase is pretty sketchy.
you wont build large amounts of strength in one month. it takes a lot longer than that. more likely you are activating muscle you already have and gaining technique. just to make sure people arent mislead by the results here. if v5 is really your max in terms of strength you arent getting to v7 in a month.
he did drop some bodyfat tho so he got lighter which is really good for climbing.
If only you were on Greg Doucette's diet you wouldn't feel like crap lol
Given the timeline, I thought the quest would be to find the softest V7 in the area :)
Gigachad jawline props m8
Can you give us a “giggidie“ in the next vid ya good looking Quagmire!
I really enjoy watching your videos. I can't imagine how long it took you to finish this video but I appreciated every aspect of it.
It is great to see the stuff that happens being the scenes.
I have to admit that I felt proud when I saw you doing muscle ups. Keep it up dude, I hope you will have more follower soon
The touch of an angel. Right hand @10m24s it’s beautiful
I'm really curious about how this training regimen would be for female climbers.
Magnus Midtbø usually just tells people to climb more =) You get all the excercise you need for climbing.... from climbing ;D It's more the nutrition and mental aspect that I bet would help most climbers.
Why is Tom Herbert's collar popped?
Hey wheres the video on the mind/body connection with Tom?
Would Like to get more into detail of the climbing sessions
Dude looks like a professional gum chewer
I want to have the freerider boulder problem in my gym too
Nice vid, love the Free solo boulder problem
Damn, I wanna know your training programs and nutrition program! Killed that V7
-I want you to sleep well and be well rested
-That was really englightening!
Now this man has a JAW AND A HALF!
The thumbnail pic is so fake
Amazing video, been looking for something like this for quite a while. Is there any chance you could let us know what your meal plan consisted of? I'm in a similar situation you were in and that kind of info would help me a lot.
Yeah that would be good
Love this! Can't wait to see the next one.
How did you lose 6% bodyfat in a month? Did you have 800+ Calorie deficit?
Also losing 6% bodyfat means a caloric deficit of ~1200 per day
*Trained like a beginner climber for one month* is a more accurate and less click-baity title.
Thats a great idea to reduce your calories, especially via carbs reduction when you need the highest perfomance and the fastest recovery. Reeeallly great.
inspiring
this green screen 0;50 hahha
Looking forward to the muscle activation video
Do you plan on staying at thay weight and slowly gain muscle or do you think you would benefit from losing more weight ? That was great quality content btw !
I could probably afford to drop my body fat down another 3-4%, and for the long-term gains, I need to improve my climbing weaknesses and develop more muscle. I will most likely stay around 160lbs, which feels good for me and matches pro climbers that are of a similar height to myself.
Great achievement and a pretty good documentation of it as well, really enjoyed this one!
I have to ask though, the breathing and muscle activation techniques, are you planning on explaining these in the future? I am really intrigued by what they enabled you to achieve and I think a lot of people would be interested in hearing about these, if possible. :)
Amazing video man
That was awesome
Great video
Diet-wise, try going Vegan (whole foods) for a month, loads of carbs, no reason to feel tired, and you’ll lose weight as your sat fats will plummet!
Congrats, man!
Hmmm weird diet. I'm 5'11 and a half @ 145 7% body fat. I think the secret is in Carbs and Starches. You need more starches bro. Broccoli and potatoes! Lots of iron too
The side view pictures hurt my back! Kills me to see climbers in their 20’s with 70 year old’s dowager humps. Shoulders up! Down! And back! Because old you would come back and tell young you that if you could. 🙂
Truly inspirational! Keep it going!
Nice man
Just something to say, so he “trained like a pro climber” whilst struggling with V5 or 6 puzzles/climbs. Which means he did what he shouldn’t have at this level you want to simply climb and do some regular exercise examples go on a walk, bike ride, a jog, do some yoga even don’t push your limits because then you harm yourself, you want to take it slow. But dieting or eating better food is perfect for training as it’s a normal routine and it helps your muscles and your overall health so do this for sure but make sure your diet is truly useful and not unhealthy. So overall don’t completely follow this video if you want to improve like him just take it slow and normal slowly improving endurance, strength, grip all of that good stuff..
Do you take protein , creatine beta alanine everyday? when did you take it? before the training? or without training?
Seems like you have a lot of money.
What exactly do you mean
I think the best thing to point out is that you can improve your technique, power, explosiveness by losing weight. I’m sorry but I’m a month, unless you’re Adam ondra, I don’t see this types of gains happening.
really well put together video...like many others here.. would really like you to go into depth on Tom's advice regarding: mindset, poster, proper breathing, and muscle activation.
How cool to do the Boulder Problem replica as your first indoor v7! If I had that thing nearby I'd project the hell out of it (my best indoors is V6 currently)
That looked like Arch Climbing Bermondsy!
