Love the video! Definitely going to try this routine. Could you also do a video for climbing specific tension in a square to the wall position on steep terrain, 30-45 degrees? I find I train my "core" and legs, but this doesn't transfer over very well to keeping tension, on small, steep foot holds. Thank you!!

This is great! I've never seen that frogger position before but glad to know that doing yoga in general is super useful for climbing. One question I have is surrounding high stepping all the time. I've been told by pretty accomplished climbers that stepping up too high ALL the time can be a bit of an energy sink compared to making a couple smaller movements at times. I used to make the biggest possible movements on a lot of climbs until someone told me to not be going for full extensions with arms or legs all the time. I assume with most things there's always a balance to be found between using lots of high steps with more conservative movements that still engage the legs and proper footwork? Thanks for the video, I've really been digging the content from this channel!
@HoopersBeta

Yes! That is correct. There are certainly times when using lower feet and conserve energy. It's always a balance and every project needs to be examined for the best beta for each climber. Having this ability, though, can certainly save you and save energy if you are able to get the foot up and rock onto it!

I’m climbing 6a and I’ve just realised just how shocking my hip and leg mobility is. I can’t even get my butt to touch my heels in child’s pose, regardless of where my torso is. With most fitness being cardio focussed in the past, stretching is about injury prevention and reducing aches but never truly essential to performance, so skipped stretching…for literally my whole life. Then building a bunch of strength without ever focussing on mobility means I’m even stiffer than I would be naturally. Sooo yeah, at least now I’m climbing I have a better motivation to stretch so I hope I see some improvement.

Hey Dr. Hoop, Do you have any advice for people with unstable/hypermobile hips? I still think I could benefit from increased mobility, if it can be done safely. But when I try the exercise in part 2, I get mild pain in the hip of the leg I’m standing on - like the surrounding muscles are working really hard to keep my hip in position. Sometimes, on the wall, it'll even feel like my hip pops out of its socket partially. I have hypermobility issues in a lot of my joints (esp. wrists, fingers, and hips), but I’m trying to save my questions until they’re relevant to the video at hand. I don’t know if hypermobility is a common enough issue to justify it’s own video, but, if it is, that would be amazingly helpful for me. Thanks!
@HoopersBeta

For an oversimplified way to check your mobility / see if you are hypermobile, look up the Beighton Hypermobility Score. *be gentle, don't be overly aggressive, and perform at your own risk* :) When it comes to your mobility concern. Progressive strength training of the hips and core is really important. Start with easier / more simple exercises, and progressively move into more challenging exercise (whether that in respect to resistance, or range of motion). I love side steps with band at toes for a simple yet really effect hip exercise. And Palof press with walk out for the core. *again, perform at your own risk*. There are of course many other examples but these are some great ones.

First off, love your videos! While I very much agree with everything you're saying, I wouldn't say the first example you gave was accurate. The 'Poor Technique' example (@1:28) I would argue is actually way more efficient depending on the type of climbing you're doing. Making smaller, easier, movements might be the key to unlocking a certain type of climbing. Making bigger moves isn't always the right way. While the Improved Technique method gets you up the wall faster, you're straining both your arms and your legs a whole lot more. I think a better example would have been something like having to cut feet to place a high foot/heel versus being able to keep your lower foot on, while place a high foot/heel
@HoopersBeta

Thanks, glad you like the videos! And I agree with what you're saying to some extent, but here's the thing -- it's impossible to show perfect, simplified examples of complex techniques. There will always be a flaw in the presentation you can point out because of such and such situation or limitation or whatever. Even the example you propose could easily have holes poked in it. The point is never to create the most perfect example that can be applied practically in every situation because that's literally impossible with climbing. Instead, we have to create an easy-to-understand generalization illustrated in physical reality that is also interesting to look at.

@@HoopersBeta As a software developer, I very much understand the inability to always give 'perfect' examples, but there is a difference between a good example and a correct one. Sometimes in software, giving an example is harder than just telling someone, 'here's how you should do it', but the example is maybe even more important than the actual concept. Most people learn by example and they continually re-adjust their knowledge based on all those examples they've seen, especially as a beginner. So what they're visually seeing is also important to engraining the concept into their practice. Anyways, we could debate this all day and it would be an interesting one at that!

This is great but I totally disagree with the example videos at around 1:50. It is not “inefficient” from an energy perspective to use lower feet on a vertical/ slight overhanging wall. It is inefficient to use high feet because you are using a less efficient range of your leg strength (knee angles 135 to 180) and high feet will tend to put bigger reaction forces on your hands (more pulling in needed). The reason I think high feet are so great is because it unlocks certain footholds to be usable on relatively blank walls, especially vertical walls and slabs, not for “efficiency “.
@HoopersBeta
3 жыл бұрын
High feet can often reduce the strain on your hands IF you’re able to keep your hips close to the wall, whereas constantly using low feet will lead to many more movements which usually results in more time on the wall meaning more energy used. It all depends on the climb, though. Of course high feet can be more inefficient than low feet at certain times. There’s no rule saying “always use high feet,” however it’s an important skill to have in your bag o’ tricks :) -Emile

@@HoopersBeta Hips closer to the wall = less strain on the hands? Definitely in a drop knee, but otherwise generally why would that be true? I’m trying to imagine the physics of it and it seems like it would be harder to suck your hips into the wall than with low feet. Easier to make sure your legs are activated though compared to straight maybe. Also, I had a feeling that by efficiency you meant number of moves used. Which if you can skip holds the climb is probably inconsequential for you anyway. My gripe with this usage of efficiency is it is not the critical parameter. Having the most energy leftover at the end of the climb should be the mark of efficiency. Because if you watch videos of pros on sport climbs they make a zillion ticky tack foot moves to get their bodies in just the right position.
@HoopersBeta

The easiest example is just to look at the thumbnail. It’s obviously an exaggeration, but it shows the basic point. Hips close to the wall in some situations can allow you to shift more weight directly downwards onto your feet, taking weight off your hands. (And that’s just one example. There are many, many other situations where high feet can be better than low feet or even essential to finishing the climb.) Like I said, there’s no rule that “high feet will always be best.” It’s all situation-based. Same for efficiency; there are many factors involved, which I don’t think anyone is arguing against.
