Warming up for a climbing or training session is essential if you want to be at your best 🤸‍♂️⁠
⁠
By increasing blood flow and raising body temperature we prime our tendons and muscles for strenuous moves on the wall.⁠
⁠
That’s why we’ve made warming up easy with a step by step guide to ensuring you’re limber and ready to send ⚡️ #startwarm⁠

The journey from colourful polyurethane to natural

The journey from colourful polyurethane to natural stone is a big leap for most climbers. Climbing outdoors offers greater opportunities and heightened difficulty, but it also requires an altered approach, additional knowledge and more equipment 🧗‍♀️⁠
⁠
We remember this period well - the nerves, the heavy backpacks and the YouTube tutorials... That's why we want to share a basic guide to help you route-find your way into outdoor climbing.⁠

We've got problems 😉⁠⁠
⁠⁠
Last Friday our setting crew teamed up with @coach.garry for an action-packed day of problem-making and creative climbing.⁠⁠
⁠⁠
The result is a wall of over 16 fresh problems waiting for you to unleash on them 💪 So be sure to head in for a session this week to sample these tasty blocs!⁠⁠

At the end of the day, we rely on our trusty fingers to grip hard and hold us to the wall 🖐️ That's why it's important to make sure your fingers are strong and healthy for climbing. ⁠
⁠
Hangboards are a great tool for training and warming up, but often climbers don't know when or how to start training on them.⁠
⁠
We thought we'd demystify grip strength and answer any hangboard or finger-strength related questions you may have. Pop your training queries down below and we'll do our best to answer them 👇

In the late 19th century ‘Bouldering’ found it

In the late 19th century ‘Bouldering’ found its roots in the most unlikely of places - a forest 50km south of Paris, France. This paradise of endless sandstone boulders was called ‘Fontainebleau’, and it was used by the alpinists of the time to train for big mountain ascents. ⁠
⁠
These ‘Bleausards’ (or ‘Boulders’) began testing themselves on harder and harder boulders, and from this, a new sub-culture of rock climbing was born - "Bouldering" ⛰️⁠
