Many of you are just starting to take your first tentative (or is that psyched?!) steps back into the real world of outdoor climbing in many parts of the world. As we're in a highly unusual situation of having had almost an entire year of pretty disrupted climbing, we thought it would be good to sit down and discuss some of the "hot topics" that many of your have been asking us to address on this.Key topics looked at are:1. Is it "ok" to feel rubbish/move poorly when you go back to normal climbing?2. How do you get back that connection between your lower body and upper body? 3. How do you transfer some of that static strength (e.g. on a fingerboard) to a more dynamic application of that strength (e.g. upwards movement on rock)4. How do you manage your outdoor climbing alongside indoors training? Should we shift the balance and loading?
