You know you're a climber when you (finally) take down your Christmas tree and flake the string of Christmas lights #climberproblems

HEAD OVER HEELS

“Head over Heels,” is typically the position we want to be in on the wall, even in bouldering as fun as it may be to be upside down. The idea of inversion is fun, and it’s great, but Gravity is a force that no man is immune to. While you would think gravity would help in the instance of flipping the body over, it actually hinders because all of the weight is being pulled down, which when in reverse is STILL DOWN though the body is up. You just can’t defy the logic, or else we’d float away every time we did a handstand.

So, with that logic in mind, down climbing.

How often do you hear, “oh yeah, down climbing will make you strong!” After you just did all this work moving upward, against the pulling force of gravity, down climbing is the training regime that increases strength? Accurate.

But WHY?! You would think, if I let go and fall I am going down, climbing down should be easy, right? Incorrect. Because Gravity is a little bitch like that, pardon my language. Ok, so the scientific reasoning is eccentric vs concentric movement.

This is that push/pull effect. Once again, opposition work being a key factor of climbing!

While some movements will force us to literally get upside down, reverse bat hang crawl, the idea is eyes to sky. No matter where you are in your climbing journey, strive to get your head in the clouds, because once you're at "rock bottom," there's no place to go but up.

When you can express yourself in the local climbing grades for each country but can’t find out how to transfer from Celsius to Fahrenheit, Cm to Inches, ect
