Description

One to one Coaching client.
17 year old male.
Onsight ability: V5
Worked grade: V6
Climbs 4-5 times a week.
Climbing history: Climbing for 3 years.
Thomas has started competition climbing, but is placing in the top twenty. He wants to reach top 5. He has admitted in his self assessment that there is an issues with the psychology of competition climbing and that he struggles with that kind of environment. He also struggled to pace himself and loses easy points. There is also an issue with his onsight ability.
We sat down and went through his self assessment and his goals and then made them in to long, medium and short term SMART goals.
After this we went through a warm up and put him through a physical assessment including:
- Flexibility/Mobility assessments
- CV Endurance test (cooper step test)
- Muscular endurance test (squats, sit ups, push ups, pull ups) tests.
- Climbing CV/power tests - circuit board, 30 degree overhang. As many moves as possible in a minute. Repeated three time and an average taken. Grades tested: f5+, f6a+, F7a
- Climbing movement assessment - coach observed climbing on coach selected problems, testing different hold types, terrains, movements.
Spreadsheet to track results and improvements over the phases. An assessment will be taken after each 4 week phase of training.
I've included the assessment write up in my files.
