Coaching is the heart of what we do at Climb Strong.

Training takes time, energy, and consistency. Consider whether you’re currently in a place to prioritize your training. Do you have access to training tools and/or a training facility? Are you feeling healthy, energetic, and injury-free? If this feels like the right time, let’s get started!

Structured programs aren’t a magic bullet—they’re built on key principles like overload, individuality, specificity, and progression. Have you followed a well-organized plan in the past? Are you training with structure now? If not, starting with a template program from the Climb Strong App might be just what you need to boost your progress.

"Getting better at climbing" is a great start, but that’s like saying you’re going to college to “be smarter.” Training works best with clear goals, and a specific vision will help guide your progress. Think about what you want to achieve in the next few months, this year, and even the next five years. What exactly do you want to improve? Having an answer to this question before you begin will make a big difference in your results.

We typically connect with athletes through video conferencing, using the platform that best suits them—most often Google Meet. This approach allows for face-to-face feedback and real-time adjustments to keep your training on track.

Yes! We recommend two different mobile apps based on how you’ll interact with Climb Strong. For our coaching programs, we use the Trainerize platform, which focuses on strength and conditioning. For self-guided programs and tracking specific climbing data like routes and grades, we partner with the Sequence Training app. The Climb Strong mobile app uses the Sequence platform to provide customizable daily reminders and weekly progress reports. This setup allows both you and your coach to monitor your progress and keep training on track.

Absolutely. Videos from your climbing and training sessions are extremely helpful for our coaches to provide detailed feedback during remote coaching. Sharing videos also helps us understand your unique style and approach. We pride ourselves on strong coach-athlete communication, and video feedback is a big part of that.

Our yearly programs are structured over 13 months. The first 12 months outline your primary goals for the year, while the 13th month is reserved for recovery, allowing us to adapt the schedule if unforeseen circumstances arise. We break the 12 months into specific phases, focusing on three-month blocks, with each month detailed and tailored to your needs. Check-ins with your coach allow adjustments to keep the plan on track and aligned with your goals.

We tailor testing to the individual athlete’s needs. If testing for mobility, strength, power, or endurance is appropriate, we’ll include it as part of the onboarding process. We also retest at the end of each cycle to monitor consistency, progression, or regression. Ultimately, the type of testing depends on the athlete and their goals, but we have the expertise and tools to test in any relevant way.

We typically retest athletes at the end of each training cycle, though the frequency can vary based on the athlete’s experience and specific goals. In many cases, we might test once a month. However, most adjustments to your training will come from our discussions, where we assess how things are progressing and make real-time changes as needed.

We can match you with a coach at any time. Currently, our team has great availability, so we can get you started as soon as you’re ready.

Yes. All of our training programs are custom-built, taking the athlete’s age and recovery needs into account. We focus on creating a plan that supports your specific goals, adjusting intensity and recovery to ensure progress while maintaining a healthy, sustainable approach.

Absolutely. Reach out to us, and we’d be happy to collaborate with you on creating custom programs for your youth athletes. We can develop a solution that fits the needs of your entire team.
