TRAINING FOR CLIMBING

Most climbers want the same things.

You want stronger fingers, better technique, to climb harder and avoid injury. Above all, you want to feel like you're making progress.

We hear it all the time.

"I'm climbing a lot, but I don't really feel like I'm making progress."

Climbers don't always know what they should be doing in each session.

It’s easy to feel overwhelmed by all the information online. Tweaks and injuries can interrupt momentum, and it's often difficult to know whether you’re actually improving.

More than anything, you want to walk into the gym with a plan and leave knowing you've spent your time well.

Know exactly what to do everytime you walk into the gym.

Developed by Vertical Ascents for the Northside climbers, this 12-week coaching and training program is designed to help you build better climbing sessions, find peak form with your climbing, train with purpose and make consistent progress.

This isn’t just a training plan – it’s a completely scalable system to improve your climbing for many seasons to come.
