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 Hörst 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. Hörst 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 Hörst is an internationally renowned author and a climber of forty years. As a researcher and coach, Hörst has written hundreds of articles and coached thousands of climbers from around the world. He owns the popular website Training4Climbing.com. Review: I can now lead 5.10 outdoors! - I bought this book to improve my technique but also to get over my various mental blocks when climbing (and even before!) After just reading the first two chapters, I noticed considerable improvement in my climbing abilities. In less than 3 months, I went from being afraid to lead 5.9's indoors to leading 5.10a's outdoors! The strength of the book resides in the author's clear expertise, but mostly in his ability to quickly get to the point. He tells you what you need to do and how you have to do it. This is the kind of textbook that I will read over and over again, absorbing new information every time. Review: Ótimo - Livro completo para treinamento de escalada. Os ciclos e exercícios apresentados são ótimos. Aconselho o livro para quem quer treinar no esquema linear de periodização. ## Features - Falcon Pr Pub Co ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #309,885 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #177 in Climbing & Mountaineering #498 in Rugby Coaching #816 in Fitness Training | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 396 Reviews | ## Images ![Falcon Press Publishing Training for Climbing: The Definitive Guide to Improving Your Performance - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71HtvMDDMRL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I can now lead 5.10 outdoors! *by K***E on 8 August 2019* I bought this book to improve my technique but also to get over my various mental blocks when climbing (and even before!)
