A good warm-up is a vital part of getting yourself ready for climbing or any form of hard physical activity! 💪

It can be a struggle when you get to the wall or crag to put the time and effort into your warm-up when you feel so psyched to get climbing. So, it is important for us to find a way to develop a high-quality and effective routine. ✅

But we are still left with one big problem… Most people skip the final part of the warm-up, the part all professional sports people use to enhance their performance. 📈

In this video, we show you how to cut out all the junk and only keep the most essential elements so you can fast-track your warm-up process, not only this but we will also show you how a warm-up can be used to enhance performance with a priming effect. Getting you to the hard climbing quicker and boosting the quality of your session. 🙌

Arrive at gym, put climbing shoes, climb 2 minutes, complain my arm hurts... rinse and repeat.

Raise, Activate, Mobilise:
10-15 reps of each exercise with minimum rest
1. Cossack squats
2. Split squats
3. Press up
4. Deep lunge twist
5. Leg swings
6. Assisted pull-ups (jumping)
7. External rotations

Potentiate:
1. Low intensity hangboard
2. Isometric holds (skip to 8:25 for example)
3. Jump to holds (8:37)

Optional:

Nice, i feel better now knowing that I cannot even do half the stuff other people do for warming up.

@lubo3934 2 years ago

I feel pretty proud of myself now. Turns out ive been doing pretty much this exact thing in the exact order without ever watching any video on it lmao. I have like 5 years of Bodybuilding experience that i kinda just ended up applying and re adapating for climbing. Feels nice to be reassured.

Try bouldering outside. Carry a heavy day pack and hike for 15 minutes to include low angle scrambling to boulders facing the sun so the handholds are warm. While hiking into your favorite warm up jugs open an close your fingers and thumbs until you get a forearm pump. Enjoy!!

needed this 🙏

Excellent advice and love the broad set of princples rather than the "3 exercises you MUST to warm up for your send". Have been more or less following the RAM but not quite getting the Potentiate step right. For example, outdoors just doing the easier section on the project and doing part of the crux would work well as part of this.

Been looking for a video like this forever!!! Thx so much.

@Fred-oz3tw 2 years ago

okay really nice. i already do all of this in my warm up. i am happy now. i will continue :)

@tuftofflowers 2 years ago

Man, thank you for this!

@bastienlhuaire4504 2 years ago

Realy interesting, I'm definitely giving that warm-up a try, little question tho, for the RAM part is it just one circuit? I was thinking that doing only one series of an exercise was not that useful 🤔

@matthiaslehmann9153 2 years ago

great video as always1 What I´d like to see, since I´ve recently got started to use my own beastmaker at home is a little routine you can do to help improving your fingeer strengh. Theres not alot of videos actually showing a routine but many that talk about the benefits of this sort of training

@steffanlippiatt513 2 years ago

How much time do you think I have

@S1arF0x 2 years ago

Unrelated question, but what climbing trousers are you wearing in the vid? Thanks. 🙏

I have to really tell people to be careful, I have always been bold when doing things and have not really cared that much. I have climbed for just about 6 months and my right wrist is in constant pain. I have been using a brace now for about a week and when the pain subsides I will slowly start doing different strength workouts for my wrists. Please warm up. Have atleast 48-72 hours rest between climbing session, do not climb when you feel really week I almost climbed 2-3 hours per session.
