Will Anglin & Rowland Chen | P.O.E.

In episode 12 we sit down for a ridiculously fun conversation with coaches and elite boulderers Will Anglin and Rowland Chen.  We dig into their concept P.O.E., which is something I've worked with since forever, but never had a cool name for. Taking this conversation to heart could potentially change your climbing, and may very well be the key to taking it to the next level.

BOARD MEETINGS | Top 3 Things We’ve Done to Positively Affect Our Climbing

It's finally here.  For quite some time I've toyed with the idea of "in between" episodes.  I can get the great podversations that you've come to expect out about once per month.  More than that and I lose my mind.  So while on our recent workshop tour, Nate and I sat down and figured out a rough format for a new concept.  The Board Meetings were born.  
We've recorded several episodes already, and the one that's about to invade your earhole is our very first.  It's a little rough around the edges, and a little clumsy at times, but as we recorded more episodes, they got better and better.  You just wait.  
 
Here's the basic format....
 
We pick a topic, and we each make a top 3 list for that topic. Neither of us know what the other will say, and we just go in. The intro theme music plays, we start talking, and then it just rolls.  Simple.  Fun.  
 
In this episode we talk about the top 3 changes we've made to our own climbing that have resulted in progress.  If you haven't made these changes to your climbing yet, maybe it's the plateau buster you've been waiting for.

Eric Hörst | Energy Systems Training

You already know the name.  You've read his books.  He's basically the first name in training for climbing in America. Eric Hörst.  My initial foray into training led me directly to his early books, and I've learned more about the science of training and how to apply it to climbing from Eric than from anyone else.  
This podversation is about a new chapter in the updated, 3rd Edition of Eric's "Training For Climbing".  If you have the 2nd Edition, you only have half the story.  This thing is packed full of new, good info, and in my opinion, is Eric's best book.  
 
I don't want to give away too much here, because, well, I want you to listen to the Podcast!  So go do it!
