Innsbruck

Innsbruck

Last weeks view! Enjoying @kletterzentruminnsbruck with the beautyful landscape around #Innsbruck.
The density of #routes above 8a is high. So a mandatory place to visit for #competition #climber.
Still you will find plenty of routes from beginners to intermediate climbing grades as well.
Especially the replicas of outdoorboulders were cool to try!

We had fun and will be back here (secret info: the cakes in the bistro are always worth the trainingbreak) 😉

Changes

Changes

The only constant in life is change!

A lot of people i see are facing a lot of challenges at the same time! They deal with an injury, maybe have a young family and changements in their job or whatever it is…

While this might bring feelings of frustration – i believe – it’s often part of the game…

If you just wait until there is less…. there could also be new challenges coming up in the future…

But mostly you can still do something today… it doesn’t need to perfect! Just a tiny thing towards your personal goal… and if you are able to do it on a regular bases, i‘ m sure, it will have an impact! On your goal and on your happiness!

Try it! Be generous with yourself! Celebrate your effort! Not your success!

Fingertraining

Fingertraining

There is #evidence and #commonsense that fingerstrenght is important for #climbingperformanceAs #fingers are highly loaded in #climbing there are also a lot of injuries and overloadinjuries…But what if you come from the other side: How can you prepare your fingers for high loads?You would load them on a regular basis for adaptations in all tissues to be prepared for your climb…..how can you do this in a controlled way/rehab protocol?…  you get it: #Hangboard#hangboarding is also possible  as ’no hangs‘ with your feet on the ground…Of course there are several things to consider if you want to start hangboarding and it might be difficult to find the right protocol, the right finger/shoulderposition etc.But it could be worth the process!

Outdoordays

Outdoordays

While the weather these days was rather cold and foggy i took the chance to enjoy an #outdoor #climbing day

Sun, challenging #moves, some cold #fingers to start and a lot of fun trying some hard moves today….

No send for me, but good #training in #powermoves and ‚findingbeta‘ will hopefully help me for the next go here😜
