Increase your strength, power, skill, and focus to maximize your
climbing performance. Praise for Training for Climbing "Training
for Climbing is a great resource. Whether you're just starting out
or already ticking 5.13, you'll find valuable information here to
help you climb harder. This is the most complete and up-to-date
training guide available." -Rock and Ice magazine Drawing on the
latest climbing research, this third edition of the international
best-selling Training for Climbing presents a comprehensive,
evidence-based program for improving climbing performance. With the
unique perspective of a veteran climber, researcher, and coach,
Eric Hoerst blends leading edge sport science with his decades of
climbing and coaching experience to create a content-rich text
packed with practical how-to and what-to-do information. A few of
the new topics explored include: * Energy system training to
develop greater strength, power-endurance, and aerobic endurance. *
Recalibrating the brain's central governor for higher power output
and stamina. * Daily Undulating Periodization as an effective
method of on-season programming. * "Training zones" for rock
climbers-the secret to truly effective training! * Stabilizer
training to improve arm power and reduce risk of shoulder injury.
Also included are expanded chapters on developing strength, power,
and endurance in the crucial finger flexor and pulling muscles, as
well as a must-read chapter on developing exceptional core
strength. Hoerst completes his coaching with dedicated chapters on
technique and mental training, performance nutrition, accelerating
recovery, and injury prevention. The book's 300-plus pages of
expert instruction make for the most advanced and complete book of
its type! Eric Hoerst is an internationally renowned author and a
climber of forty years. As a researcher and coach, Hoerst has
written hundreds of articles and coached thousands of climbers from
around the world. He owns the popular website
Training4Climbing.com.
