Episode 157 | Yves Gravelle is a legendary Canadian strongman, and pound for pound may have the strongest grip in the world. I suppose that likely helps him climb V14, but it's not the only reason. He's also a workhorse who is a stickler for the details. He's also a father, husband, business owner, and youth coach. Somewhere in there he's found time to be an Armlifting World Champion with numerous world records, as well as a prolific first ascentionist near his home in Ottawa.  You can find Yves on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/yvesgravelle You can check out his mask making company at https://www.instagram.com/metamorphose_masks Some of the tools Yves uses: Saxon Bar: https://www.armassassinstrengthshop.com/products/saxon-bar-custom?variant=29697039237233 Wrist Wrench: https://www.armassassinstrengthshop.com/products/axle-wrench?variant=16730872774769 You can find us at www.powercompanyclimbing.com You can support the podcast at www.patreon.com/powercompanypodcast We don't tweet.

Troy Fauteux tries harder than you. His try hard might have gotten him up hard boulders before the mental skills had a chance to catch up - but I suspect those are coming along just fine.  To make the most of this interview go HERE and watch the video of Troy doing The Mandala in Bishop. THEN listen to the episode.  Once you're finished, go HERE and watch this video of Troy just two weeks before doing his first V11.
