Skill Of The Month – Rope Climb

  • The focus for Thursdays in December will be rope climbs.  During each class the coach will spend time with whoever is interested in learning how to properly climb ropes. You’ll learn multiple climbing techniques and be able to practice proper foot holds in a safe setting.  It is recommended that you purchase a calf sleeve to protect against rope burn when climbing and descending.  You want to buy a smaller size so it doesn’t slide when climbing.  I wear a medium.  Here is a video from Jason Khalipa on two popular styles of climbing.

Today is Thursday Yoursday, which means all classes are set up like open gym.  You can use the hour long class to work on a skill, make up a missed workout, work on mobility, lift, or just enjoy the ambiance.  We will be programming additional squatting on Thursdays and Sundays.  Bottom line, enjoy the day.  Do some stuff you need to work on, and do some stuff you love.
