WIN a YEAR SUPPLY of Chalk, our NEW Chalk Bucket + More! Enter Free Raffle ▶︎ rungne.com/pages/joshrundle-free-craft-chalk-bucket?linkId=Josh%20Rundle_FREE%20Craft%20Chalk%20Bucket_RUclips&affluencerId=Josh%20Rundle
I tried this and 'won' a chalk bag - there was no way however to actually claim it, I just got a message that the code couldn't be used with my basket contents - my best guess was it would only work if I reached some minimum order buying other stuff?
@@lm7012 I won the chalk thing, had the same issue. Was planning to buy another bag anyways, so I added that to the cart and the chalk was discounted 99%. I'm guessing you need to hit the $70 free shipping thing.
I think I've watched too many climbing videos... I see in the background, while Alex is talking about negative thoughts, the kitty cat boulder that someone set for Louis in some other video...
also the yellow boulder when alex talks about "feel more think less" was in a video with louis and nathan i think, and the "purrrrfect toecatch boulder" was on a catalyst video, it is the one next to the red one alex does right after talking about the feeling! edit: aah, i thought you saw the one he set for his cat, my bad!
2:46 This is actually why I started climbing 3 months ago! I did it once after an invitation from a friend and I realized this was NOT my thing because I am not very good at it. I'm too heavy, not flexible, I lack grip strength and I am not very tall. So that's actually why I decided to accept it as a personal challenge, because I'm used to seeking out things I'm good at and that can get boring after a while. So yeah, 3 months later I still suck, but at least I can do a few easy V4s now. Hopefully I'll be able to do V5s within my first year.
That MagDust add is marvellous. Try to make same concept for magjuice haha ! Next time i need chalk i will use your code . So far i still have 6 bags of chalk which will keep me away from a while . But always a joy to see your videos !
Great video! It's nice to see real climbing routine where even a champions didn't do every route from the first try! Also great advices from the champ!
Awesome video as always Josh, Alex really is an excellent teacher and she brought some great points to the table. I suppose ill climb some overhangs next session to improve my weaknesses haha
"Let's focus on the feet and getting our body weight onto them, that's where you get power from" *Proceeds to put the toes of a fully extended foot on a shoulder height hold and somehow manages to weight it* Yes, this clearly applies across skill levels, but something tells me that being made of spring steel or whatever it is Alex is made of also helps quite a bit.
That first slab indeed has high feet for such a tall handsome guy like you, agreed. High, tiny feet is scary and make our butts go 1m away from the wall, lol.
From the raffle I got the one free magdust, but the discount only works when I add something else that isnt the magdust to the cart. How can I fix this
Haha trust me that’s not flirting. No one wants to see me flirt, well unless you like awkward silences and talking about why some blades of grass are different colours 😂
Could I just put a tiny word of warning out there on the 60/40? As a much much older climber (50s), I think one also has to be very careful to listen to one's body on the subject of things one isn't comfortable with or good at. There is a very real chance of injury otherwise. So I'm not at all great at heel hooks, and I do try to try them. But I can also feel that if I push it I'm going to knacker my hamstrings and at my age that could be permanent game over.
I go to the gym, the climb is crimpy 'why aren't my fingers stronger?!', the climb is positional 'why doesnt my body move right?!' the climb is tiring 'why dont I have more stamina?!' and on and on.
We are rarely as good as we hope to be, and our progress is never as swift as we'd like. Stay objective, and try to see your progress over time rather than an individual session. (This is a hypocritical take - I'm a recovering perfectionist, and it sucks when we can't see improvement or feel like we don't measure up to the challenge). Gotta keep at it, and keep having fun. Good luck out there!

@@lm7012 you are correct, my guess would be 100+

Dude I won the 20pcs of Magdust, thank you so much! Instantly liked & subbed now :D
@@wasdasoos6552 wooooo so happy you won! Thanks for the support!
"i feel like were becoming friends"
Alex: *immediately changes subject*
😂😅 best friends
You can actually pinpoint the second his heart rips in half.
I think you are already best friends. She tries to explain you something and you don't want to listen.
😂🤣😅
Lets watch it again: 13:35
0:35 - 60/40 rule
7:59 - anchor points
9:21 - Think less, feel more
14:18 - Mental framing
17:03 - The chain

Glad I'm not the only one who was thinking about this😂
Also noticed this haha 😅 no such thing as too many climbing videos!
Yep its the one where they set Louis' dream boulder
Everywhere I go, I see the same holds
I think this is the best Magdust ad I've seen yet :D
Hah thank you 🙏 was very hard not to laugh 😂
@JoshRundle the picture in the valuables pouch was a classy touch.
It’s still there too, I’m never going to take it out 😂
I'd go even further and say this is the best youtuber hocking a product I've ever seen
@@TheBenjaminsky you haven't seen Justin Hawkings plugging Manscape, I think....?
"be positive" josh: "i feel like a giraffe, thats been thrown on ice and thats been drugged and then hit by a brick at the same time"
😂😂🦒as least I’m descriptive 😂
Dude, your commitment to the Magnus bit is next level
Haha anything for Magnus
Loved this session Josh! Thanks for having me :)🙂
Thank's for such a fun session Alex! I learned a lot!
Alex: don't be so dramatic
Alex 15 seconds later: UGHHH I'M MELTING
😂😂😂 good point
Its amazing watchin Alex climb. It is like dynamic yet gentle slow-motion footage.
That’s such a good way to describe it! Beautiful 😍
Alex is the real deal
I love Louis' cat in the background at 15:48
It’s a great cat 🐱
Best route setting ever
super nice when you guys hang out but still educate us all. nice and comforting

Don't obsess about grades. Treat it as a dance performance where you are your own audience.
14:19 feels like tigger dragging piglet along where one josh skip is 5 puccio steps lol so cute both of you.

I love watching Alex climb. I also love hearing talk about climbing. So enlightened.
She’s awesome 🙌 isn’t she
the commercial was great xD josh, you're such a funny guy! thanks to alex for the tips! she is so strong! i love to watch her climbs
Yay thank you so pleased you liked it!! She climbs so nicely doesn’t she?
Great video! It's nice to see real climbing routine where even a champions didn't do every route from the first try! Also great advices from the champ!

love yalls energy together :)
😃🙏
Awesome tip about the thumb to engage the shoulder! Never thought about that
This could be the first time in history in which an ad is the best part of a RUclips video
Haha I don’t know if that’s a good thing or a bad thing 😅😂
The video's alright, i mostly tune in for the ads now
(JK great content, keep it up & keep slabbing & smashing) @JoshRundle
Great video, Josh!
And Alex is always inspiring on the wall, and made some great points here 😁
Thank you 😊. She’s awesome!
Thought I spotted a wild Toby Segar on the Kilter Board at 9:11 😆
4:01 the uncooked pasta on the plate 😂
😂😂 I think you’re the first person to notice 🍝
It's best with magdust. 😜
.
Good point about a positive mindset. I had a coach that didn’t let me SIT next to a negative person in the gym. Thanks for the reminder!
You should start a class called "charisma in climbing" 🔥🔥🔥
hahaha On it ;)
I didn’t… not sure why it didn’t show up 😃
15:00 I cant get over the cat on the wall
7:08 snailed xD love it!
Love a 🐌
Excellent tips, extremely helpful, thanks a lot❤
So much good stuff, but liked and commented for the Mag Dust wine glass sip lol
best commercial for chalk ever hahaha
😂 thank you!
Cool vid, Mate I feel your pain... Got into climbing late last year and I'm 6'6. Those high foots on the slabs are killers
Thank you! Haha I know!! Us tall boys have got to stick together!! 😂😉
Everyone talking about the Magdust ad, but can we talk about these imazingly clear instructions?
🔥🔥🔥🔥
So does Alex have licence for carrying those guns she has ? (I swear to god they are bigger than mine). With respect.
Haha must do to be that’s strong
"Let's focus on the feet and getting our body weight onto them, that's where you get power from"
*Proceeds to put the toes of a fully extended foot on a shoulder height hold and somehow manages to weight it*
Yes, this clearly applies across skill levels, but something tells me that being made of spring steel or whatever it is Alex is made of also helps quite a bit.
So many great tips here!
alex is so friendly!
That first slab indeed has high feet for such a tall handsome guy like you, agreed. High, tiny feet is scary and make our butts go 1m away from the wall, lol.
How can I trust my feet if they betray me all the time?
Maybe they betray you because you don’t trust them?
Impossible. They started it.
Push harder on them!
😂 time to retaliate and show them who’s boss
Lots of good moments in this video but but Alex "responding" to the cutback of Josh ranting about slabs with "exactly" really got me for some reason 😂
hahaha I'm pleased you like that bit :)
I was waiting for Josh calling her babe.🤣
Nice video. 👍
16:45 how is that not a thumbnail with a title "Alex Puccio falls in love with my climbing skills"? :P
Haha it is now, but sadly for me it might be Clickbait 😂
I gave a thumb up for that advertisement. And I rarely give a thumb up to anything but that made me laugh :P
Yay thank you 🙏!!!
9:08 bro is that Toby Segar in the background on the Kilter board?? 🤯
It wasn’t, but must be his doppelgänger
That ad was smooth af.
Haha thank you!
Bro, I was caught off guard by my climbing gym in the sponsored segment, literally never seen it in a RUclips video before.
Love frome boulder walls! I have filmed one video last year there
„I love the way your brain thinks“, is a nice way to say, „you’re a weirdo“. 😂
I knew it 😂😂😂
Got myself in the background of this one
❤️
Cool video👍🏻
Thank you 🙏

These are actual pro tips unlike some other videos on youtube lol
Haha pleased you like them 😊
The way you're flirting and she's not having it 😂
Haha trust me that’s not flirting. No one wants to see me flirt, well unless you like awkward silences and talking about why some blades of grass are different colours 😂

Climbing is so interesting and surprising that a V14 climber can still be surprised at the relative difficulty of a V6 :D
Still hoping for a Magnus collab. Love the content
Me too! Thank you :)
@JoshRundle Did u move to the US?
No Alex came to the Uk for a bit.
So, if I'm getting this right, Magdust goes well with raw spaghetti?
It’s the perfect combination
Hey josh
Hi!
some of those routes are insanely hard, who is making them if even the pro climbers struggle 😀
She, like every climber, has absolute glizzies for fingers and insane biceps
What were the 5 tips?
video starts at 8:00 and ends at 9:30
I go to the gym, the climb is crimpy 'why aren't my fingers stronger?!', the climb is positional 'why doesnt my body move right?!' the climb is tiring 'why dont I have more stamina?!' and on and on.

Gotta keep at it, and keep having fun. Good luck out there!
Mittiboo 😂
😂 the one and only
What is that ad read 😂😂😂
The best of climbing RUclips comedy and acting 😅😂
Did you get low-key roasted at 16:54? 😂
😂 always
The best chalk was X Factor.
Sooo i should avoid slabs....got it
I take a little bit of meth as a pre-workout, makes my pinch strength crazzzzyyyy
Not sure what to say to this …. 😂
First
Boom 💥
Yaps vil on steroids
I thought. Josh was a v8 climber interesting to see him struggle on v4/5? Sandbagged ? Lol
Have seen a Gr 29 climber lose it on a 14 and a grade 32 climber back off a 22. That's climbing for ya!
You should watch cocaine bear BECAUSE it's terrible.
hahaha I dont know if I can bring myself to do it
That sexual tension...
NDL
Cocaine bear was good
Was it really!?
@@JoshRundle it was, worth a watch
Ngl, you're kinda creeping on Alex…..
Haha definitely not, just good friends and bants
Is juicing one of the five tips?
😂
Do u have a 𝕋𝕖𝕝𝕖𝕘𝕣𝕒𝕞 group?
