The way we've all been learned about climbing movement feels a little bit like the way you earn badges in the Girl Scouts. You learn a new trick here, add a heel hook there, working on not stamping your feet around and pivoting on your toes - and on and on.  The problem? It's all disjointed. Like we're stuffing things into a bag of tricks instead of working towards a unified, sensible understanding of how to move better on the wall. That's about to change. In this episode we're joined by veteran coach and host of the Power Company Podcast Kris Hampton, and we're talking all about the 5 atomic elements of climbing movement.  Buckle up and get ready to have your mind blown.

The phrase "calories in, calories out" gets tossed around like a hacky sack at springtime on a college campus. But is it really that simple? Or is there more to it? And is the practice of tracking your food intake or "calorie counting" good for you? Or is it an obsessive behavior associated with disordered eating habits? Should you ever do it? Or are you better off ascribing to the practice of intuitive eating? Calories are a BIG topic and in this episode we're unpacking all of the above and more.

Is being a short climber harder? Or are short climbers making it up? This week, we're joined by special guest Juliet Hammer, CSCS to discuss all that and more. Juliet is a certified badass, a climbing coach, and has climbed more double digit boulders than we care to count. From taking home hardware at outdoor bouldering competitions like the Triple Crown and competing on the national stage in sport climbing, we're so glad to have Juliet on the show. Plus, Juliet has been telling the world she's 5 feet tall, but in this episode we've got some exclusive intel to reveal... because while Juliet is an overall honest gal, she's been lying about her height. From training, to grading routes and everything in between, if you're a shorter climber you're going to LOVE this episode.  CONNECT WITH JULIET:  website: julietamanda.com Instagram: instagram.com/juliet_amanda YouTube: youtube.com/@juliet_amanda RESOURCES:  Get the free ROCK MAP course now! https://www.caitlinholmes.com/rock-map Sign up for the FREE Fast Track Movement Course www.goodsprayclimbing.com/fast-track IMPORTANT LINKS: 1.
