Training is training is training. You’ve done your homework, you know how to periodize a training plan, you understand set and rep schemes and RPE and autoregulation, you’ve got all the latest tech and warmup tools, and you’ve somehow figured out how to fit all 482 things into a week, including recovery time and self-care mental health days. You’ve optimized.
Congrats.
But now you have a climbing trip coming up. The rock is different. The style is different. Your pre-trip time is short and the number of days you’ll be climbing even shorter. What’s more, if you do your normal training block for this upcoming trip, it’ll overlap with the good days in your climbing season and you want to optimize for BOTH.
Well, realistically, you probably can’t. What you can do is learn the best way to train for a climbing trip, which is different from training for your normal climbing season. And you’re going to do just that, because we’ve got you covered with some useful tips.
