Description
About Jorg Verhoeven
Jorg Verhoeven is a professional Dutch climber who lives and trains in Austria. He's done about 150 world cups (in both bouldering and routes), and he won the Overall Lead World Cup in 2008 and was World Youth Champion twice. He did the 4th free ascent of The Nose on El Cap (5.14), and he recently did Wheel of Life (V15). He was on the cover of Climbing magazine for his historic repeat of The Nose, which further piqued my interest in this all-around badass climber.
I wanted to know how he's capable of doing it all, so we chatted about his training, his attitude about climbing and life, and how he keeps it fun and interesting for himself.
What We Talked About
How he trains in his limited gym facility
Whether or not he does finger training and campusing (very interesting answers)
His internal struggle on The Nose
How he trained for the Nose
His very specific training for World Cups and other comps
