Rock Climbing is a subtle dance of finger strength and balance. It requires an intense amount of finger and grip strength to keep you on the wall. You will need strength and stability in your legs to keep your balance and should train core daily to bring it all together.

Summer is the season for exploring and we’re here to keep you strong for all of the adventures ahead. These movements are recommended for all levels, and present in no particular order in terms of priority or pairing. The concept of the summer series is to provide you with movements that directly correlate with the activity and strategically target the associated muscle groups.
The years of heavy deadlifts will come to fruition for the grip strength needed for bouldering and rock climbing alike. Don’t sleep on hand extender exercises to counteract the extensive finger flexion.
From afar rock climbing may look upper body dominant, but to move your body vertically it’s much more efficient to push through your legs.
