I would like to give it a shot one day, I am hovering at 7a on a good day thanks to nothing but obsessive climbing at the gym for fun. I would love to get directions on proper targeted training. Having someone correcting your form and showing you injury free ways of reaching your goals is worth spening money on. I shall watch this series attentively, best of luck Richie!
OwenAfreetalk you are perfectly right, and I learnt it much too late. I didn't pay attention and ended up with a mild climbers back, but I was still trying to reach as far as usual, putting my shoulders under a lot of stress, and before I knew it, tendinitis struck. I have been forcing to do antagonist training once a week at least to compensate, in the hope to keep everything in balance.
Really cool video. Super psyched to see amazing series like these. Honestly would kill to be able to get professional training like that. I totally feel like Richie in this video, and its motivating to start now, when im much further away from 50 haha
My end of year target is a 7a. I can't wait to push it higher! Cleanly sent a 6b+ the other day, although it took a few attempts it was one I was very happy I managed!
Would be cool to know. Been stuck on 7a for almost 15 years and I am beginning to believe that that is actually my genetic limit, would be cool to get some hard data on that.
Episode 2 is out!: czcams.com/video/wRlfCZT3Kkc/video.html&lc=z23txr5xsxe1hlfduacdp435heyke45teotjjqcgpphw03c010c

And watch the knees aswell
Can't wait to see him climbing in one year from now. This is very inspiring!
This is excellent! I'm excited to follow this Epic adventure.
Age may not be a barrier,but it is certainly a filter.
Well put

The sound is weird when they're outside.
What a great series! Awesome stuff.
Good luck dude, best wishes!!

Go Richie go!!!
I can't wait to climb 8b+
this is so motivating!
Un saludo desde Barcelona.
I believe it you!
nice one!
So will there be progress updates in, say 4-6 months? Really want to see how he does! Good luck!
next episode will be dropping next thursday!
I'm gonna go out on a limb that he climbed much harder than 7b+ when he was younger.....
How many whippers till the rope snaps. new rope vs used rope
Fucking hell 7B+ to 8B+ in one year with an injury? has he hit that grade before?! In a year I only got to 6B+ on a lead and V5 bouldering -.-
How can I get these tests?
